WOULD DENY
ALLDIVORCE
Ohio Judge Says Criminals
Come From Children of
Divorces.

BY United Press.
CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 6.-Afier several
years Of close study Of the cause and-ef-
feet Of divorce, Judge A. ]. Pearson, of
the Common Pleas Court here, has reach.
ed the conclusion that society would bene-
fit by the repeal of all legislation per-
mitting dissolution Of the bonds Of matri-
mony. Denial of divorce would work a
hardship in some cases, he admitted. but
the general effect would be distinctly
beneficial.
Judge Pearson believes much Of the
evil Of the present day is due to the large
numbers Of divorced men and women
who have been turned loose on the com
muniE, with the resultant inimical ef-
feet He believes the ranks of criminals
and other parasites are literally recruited
from among the children of divorced
couples.
"Of course some cases merit separa-
lion, but it would be Of less injury 10 So
ciety If divorce was absolutely banned" !"

by United Pres.
LsNDoN, Jan. 6. - London has 3
Bomb Shop" famous for seventeen
years; where nearly every explosive
thought having to do with change in any
of the activities of s>eiety is Offered
freely and uninferrupiediy for sale to, a
willing public.
The exterior is painted violent red
marking il from the many new and sec.
ond hand bookshops that line Charing
Cross Road Through the flaming Por-
tails the timid visitor sees more violent
red with the names Of modern revolu-
tionsries printed ornsmentally in gold on
the walls above the book cases. Il seems
safe 10 enter.
Two young men are in charge of the
Bomb Shop. the Henderson boys. Their
father and they own and manage il. One
wears a country-gentleman knickerbocker
suit and an uDmasked smile that seems
TO be ripping over memories connected
with his suit. and it's in his faraway
eyes. too: a world Of daisied lanes and
loving kline and ;hached cottages and the
joy Of lramping.
Can he be disturbed out of that un-
bookish trance? No; a patron asks him
If he has anything associating the theo-
ries of Hegel with industrial organiza-
lion. He gives more than an answer, a
peroration, briskly pulling down books
here and there in the section devoted to
economics--bui always with the pastoral
smile and the dreaming eyes.
is there another place like this?"
In England. no, he answered. There
are plenty Of socialist bookshops, and
some centering on rebellion in art and
music and matrimony, but tins is the
only place where everything is to b.
found thai advocates progressivisrr.
Moderate and radical, and even boil
shevism.'
oh yes; moderate and more radical
than bolshevism. You see, the principles
of my father, my brother and me go
beyond bOlshevism. We are anarchists" !"
lie said this casually and frankly, still
with The same pre-occupied smile,-and
did not seem to notice his quesiioner's
shudder.
DO you know that if you made that
admission in America. you probably
would be arrested on the spot and your
incendiary bookshop would be closed, all
the books wrapped in black paper by
blindfolded policemen and thrown into
the Red Sea?"
''Now you are joking. We have deal
ings with many bookshops in America.
We publish a magazine, Goierie, that has
American editors and is enjoying a good
sale in America. We are distributors
Of great deal Of English Socialist and
trade union literature, and we ship reg
ularly to our American agents, a large
and reputable concern on Fifth Avenue"
Here another American inlerposed. He

Demonstrations for Benefit OF VISIT
Ors Farmers Week.
During the annual Farmers Week held
by the College of Agriculture here, Janu-
airy 1921, daily demonstrations will be
given in testing sour soils for their lime
stone needs. The soils laboratory will
be open so that anyone bringing soils can
have them tested and learn how the work
is done.
Samples should be taken from an aver
age place in the field as follows: Clean
off the surface refuse and dig a hold
about seven inches deep leaving verti-
cal wall. Clean out the loose din, spade
of the surface refuse and dig hole
put il on clean paper. Repeat this on
several locations in the field, collecting
and mixing the slices into one sample.
Testing such samples will give a good
idea Of the lime need of the field.
Visitors will be welcome to bring
samples for. test and discussion with the
man in the soils laboratory.

conditions worse than Russia's.'
This statement Of Hugo SHINES, coal
and iron king, is one of his arguments in
his fight against Specialization Of the Ger

lion that, with Cermany's finances in a
muddled- almost bankrupt condition, So

He contends that the two schemes pro-

"MODERN TRAITOR" IS PESTERED BY SCHOOL
 CHILDREN OF PEKING

WASHINGTON, Dec. II. While Washington is still astir with confer, cnce activities there are moments when tired minds find relief in gossip over interesting things in lighter vein.
 A story was told recently by one of the Chinese students coming to ob- serve the conference concerning Tsau Yu-lin the modern Benedict Arnold of China.
 Living in the heart of Picking since his retirement from official life. after he had been thrown out of office by force of public opinion at the height of the Paris Peace Conference. Tsao Yu- lin was not left alone by the school boys in Picking. Ii is said that for some considerable time he awoke each morning to find this legend scrubbed on the wall in front of his mansion.
 "Tsao the great traitor of Chinai'
 And every other morning Tsao had to tell the soldiers guarding his gate to wipe off this ghastly reminder of his ignoble career. Nothing daunted the school youngsters kept scribbling on the wall overnight, when the soldiers were stealing a few winks, the same Chinese characters, "Tsao, the great traitor of China"
 Thinking that he hit upon an excel lent device to put stop to this boy ish mischief, Tsao ordered the wall in front of the gateway to be painted black instead of white Then the youngsters. instead of using the Chi nese brush and ink to prick the con science of Tsao, used chalk until this well-known, disgraced Chinese official shook his head in despair and let the youngsters alone in their pranks
 The Chinese people have longer memory for their traitors than any other race. One way of perpetuating this memory among the Chinese is to fix the traitorous name on an edible. A certain Chinese doughnut today still bears the name of a notorious Chinese traitor who lived several hundred years ago.

GAS PRODUCED FROM
 NEW ENGLISH SOURCE

LONDON; Dec. l4.-Producing gas from new sources is being tried as an experiment on a small Surrey farm.
 It is nothing less than the chaumg of the will-o -the-wisp. which is a form of marsh gas It was discovered during the war that marsh gas could be produced in quantities sufficient to De of practical use whether for heat pr power Almost all manure wheth CT from the farmyard or from rot ting vegetables and leaves, gives off at certain stage large volumes of marsh gas.
 building has now been designed into which the manure is pitched at the right time. and the gas forming above it is taken off and measured. \ double purpose is thus served. The manure is protected from the weath rr and does not lose its valuable qualities. and the gas from it may be used to run the machinery of the farm
 The gas from the new experiment is at present little tickle Some times the quantities are great, some times small; but the causes of the variation are being probed. and great results are epcCted
 With the gas the only apparatus needed is pipe and an air-tight reservoir

such was the outcome of the famous
BArnes-Rooseve1t libel suit and the

Ford. the great car constructor. Such
suits are a public nuisance.
In damage suits the Judges are com

often / car do nothing to prevent It.
Recently there came before u court
9 case OF malicious prosecution from
Rottineau county. The agent Of an
elevator company had made defaults
ed on a: complaint charging an em-
sbezzlement of money but on the trial
It clearly appeared that he had en-
bezzled no money. He had merely
obtained for himself hay, property
and credit by trading OF coal and
property Of the company. OF course
he was promptly acquitted. Then for
malicious prosecution he sued the ele-
svator company and obtained q YER
dict for $1,000, and strange to say our
court allowed 1t to stand
I do also weep because OF the waste
ful expense which some judges make
by formulating opinions Of twelve to
thirty-five pages on matters OF little

e legal opinion is tolerated. A
James Hill or any business man would
throw it. back without reading it and
recall or discharge the writer.
Supreme Court RAked.
However, the world moves notwtth-
standing and in business methods our
supreme court has moved far in adj
wa Ara NJ nxyary f>kh a. cn~a1ln oA,.s%
Excepting in July and August we hold
monthly terms of court. commencing
on the first Tuesday of each month.
Ten days before the opening Of the
term the clerk makes a trial calendar
OF all appeals in his office. He allots
to each day a page on which he sets
for argument three CT four cases. He
mails aGcopy OF the calendar to each
attorney. If an attorney does not app
pear when his cas is called It Is Sub
nitted without argument on his part.
During the calendar month the Judges
make It q point OF honor to decide ev-
cry case on the calendar. They clear
the slate and leave nothing undone.
And that is what the United States
supreme court would soon learn to do
II the writer were chief justice or
member Of the court. His Saturday
evening letter would report the doings
of the court, the reasons why appeals
are held up for two or three years
and made enormously expensive. The
judges would have a weekly reminder
that time. is money and that theft Of
time is a theft OF money. The judges
Of the US. supreme court do not hold
monthly terms; they hold only two
terms in a year and I believe they
pass nearly half their time on vaca-
tons or in luxurious living, hence
they are W up with their WORK.
