COURTU JUDGE
ADVISES MARRYING IN
PRIME

People leap into divorce court as i'm
pulsively as they leap in marriage.
Sometimes, of course, the sooner a
couple can be separated the better.
Blu there are other cases where the
opposite is true"
1t was for these latter causes that
Judge SABBATH established his famous
reconciliation ROOM" Whenever there
seemed to be the slightest chance for
the unhappy ones to compose their
differences, he sent them to the room.
Sometimes he had to send an officer
of the court TO separate them, but
many times they would emerge smil-
ing, arm in arm. Often he suspended
court and offered himself in the role
of peacemaker. From seven in the
morning until six at night he worked
for six days n week without ever stop
ping for lunch. Il cannot keep the
poor people waiting" he would answer
cess.
1T is upon the children that the
worst tragedies of divorce fall" the
judge said. They suffer not only
from the decree which makes a divided
home but also rom the notoriety.
Their playmates in school point fingers
of scorn at them. Other parents adj

Gus and unhappy without any realiza-
ton of the cause.
But it was trying to decide the
heart breaking question of custody of
the children. if you will pardon the
expression. got my goat The other
terrible question is that of alimony.
Some men will do anything in the world
to avoid paying alimony. They will
give up the best job they ever had and
present themselves actually out of
work and needy when they might be
earning good money. They fake in
Jurles and disabilities, coming into the
court room with arms tied up in band
ages, with doctors certificates of i'll
health or clad in garments not fit to
be seen. If it can be proved that they
are playing off, it is easy to judge the
payment but the difficulty is to judge
much the wife deserves"
The largest present number of di-
vorces Judge SABBATH attributes to hard
times rubbing the last vestige of
bloom from hasty marriages. He
SAID the contract made in a time of I'M
natural stress and existence is not
strong enough to stand the dull mon

WILSON DEMOCRATIC ISSUE
IN MISSISSIPPI CAMPAIGN
Williams Not Out For Reformation; Congress
man Who Stands Back of Former President
Opposes Ex-senator Vardaman.

none too popular here. The women
themselves do not seem to be taking
an active interest in politics. Less
than 25 per cent of the qualified
women voters have registered.
When Mr.. Vardaman was defeated
in 1918 by Pat Harrison it will be
recalled that Woodrow Wilson adj
dressed a letter to the democrats of
Mississippi declaring no man who had
been untrue to the principles of the
party should be honored with office.
He cited the instances where in his
opinion Senator Vardaman had failed
to support the party, especially on
important war measures.
The Wilson letter contributed in q
very large measure to Vardaman's de-
feat and since that time, through his
weekly newspaper, published in Jack
son. he has never lost an opportunity
to vigorously lambast the former
president.
Wilson May Write Again
Mr.. Wilson has, up to this time, been
silent concerning Vardaman's present
ambition to run for the senate, but it
is freely rumored that history will re-
peat itself before the campaign closes
and that another Wilson letter will be
Forthcoming, similar in tenor to that
which created such a furore in Mis-
souri, when Mr.. Wilson paid his re-
spects to Senator James Reed who, by
the way, is one of Vardaman's
closest friends. There has been no
sign of repentance from vardaman in
so far as Wilson is concerned. He
has offered no EXPLANATION of his
opposition to the former president,
neither has he rendered any apologies,
and it is a safe surmise that he will
not do so.
Hubert Stephens is a staunch
Wilson supporter. Two very interest
ing documents have been issued by his
campaign bureau. One bears the
simple caption "hate" and is a com
pilation of Vardaman's most vitrolic
utterances concerning Woodrow VIII
son. The second pamphlet bears the
question mark on its cover, preceded
by the words. democrat or repub-
lican?" and quotes from Vardaman's
own speeches and writings in criticism
of the democratic party and in praise
of various republican leaders. Both
pamphlets are published without COM
ment.

fluent speaker and a man of attractive

Jackson, Miss, June 11.-Woodrow
Wilson is just about the only issue
democrats have been able to stir up in
the senatorial campaign which has
been projected in Mississippi by vol
untary retirement of John Sharp
Williams. John Sharp is just nat
urally tired of the United States
senate and says he wants to spend his
remaining days in peace and quiet.

politics.
Senator Williams retirement has
brought to the fore once more for
mer Senator James X. Vardaman and
the latter's. candidacy for the nomi-
nation is surrounded by all of his
vitrolic hate of the former president.
Herbert Stevens of New Albany, can
didate of the conservative faction. for
10 years q member of congress from
the second district and acknowledged
champion of that section of Missis-
sippi democracy which has always fol-
lowed the leadership Of John Sharp
Williams, has taken up the cudgels for
Woodrow Wilson and is making an
active canvass in defense of his poll
cies.
Mr.. Vardaman SO far has been I'M
able to take the stump, although the
primaries are less than 60 days away.
It has been difficult to ascertain the
facts concerning Vardaman's illness.
His friends claim that his sole handi-
cap is his new set of false teeth,
which make articulation difficult.
Six months ago, on advice of physi-
clans, he had all of his teeth pulled,
and since has been unable to have
satisfactory plates made. The former
senator also is said to be suffering
from high blood pressure.
Woman Adds Interest
Additional interest is lent to the
campaign by the candidacy of Miss
Belle Kerney, the first woman in the
south to contest a nomination for the
United States senate. Miss kerney is
waging an active campaign and is at
tracing fair sized crowds to all of
her meetings. She makes a very
favorable impression. That she will
make an excellent showing in the first
primary is conceded by friend and foe
alike. Veteran political observers,
however, say the time is not yet ripe
for Mississippi to send a to
the senate. AS a matter of fact. this
state failed to ratify the Susan B.
Anthony amendment to the federal
constitution and that was substantial
evidence that the vote for women is
