DIVORCE IN GERMANY

Divorce statistics for 1920 in Berlin
show almost a three-fold increase over
1918 and an increase of sc per cent
over 1919. The number of divorces
for 1920 was 36,55O as contrasted
with 22,202 the year previous and was
double the number of 1913, the year
before the war. In 1920 there were
SOL divorces per 100000 persons as
opposed to 1855 per 100000 persons in
1918.
During the war divorce decreased
considerably in Germany The pres
ent increase is due to the early and
hasty marriages entered into during
and after the war. The number of
divorces is highest in the great cities.
Hamburg with 2236 per 100000 leads
in divorces. Berlin, with 219.7 per
100000 is next. Saxony has the high
est number of divorces, by percentage,
of any state, with 686 per 100000
persons.

RECALLS HUMBLE SAINT
ST. GERMAiNE COUSINS HOUSE
SAVED AT SALE TO LlQUiDATE
EsTATE-To ERECT BAslLIcA.

The house in which Saint Germaine
Cousin lived at Pibrac, near Toulouse,
France, has been placed on sale in
the courts of Toulouse in order to
liquidate an estate. Fortunately it
has been purchased by a notary of the
city who intends to preserve it and
keep it open for the devotion of the
faithful.
1t is very humble little house, the
home of shepherdess, for Saint Ger
maine Cousin was an humble maiden
Prosecuted by step-mother, she
nevertheless set marvellous example
of faith, piety, patience and charity.
During her lifetime she performed
many miracles: the wolves which
abounded in the forest of Bouconne
never touched a single sheep of her
fold; and the Courbet river, which
often overlooked, never prevented her
from going to church Tor her dew
tions.
Germaine Cousin died June Is, 1905.
Her body was inferred in the church
at Pibrac, opposite the pulpit, and
silence enveloped her name and mem,
DRY until 1913.
A vast basilica is now under con-
struction to replace the present church
of Pibrac, which is not large enough
to accommodate the pilgrims. The
present church was built two hundred
years ago on the site of the smaller
edifice in which Germaine Cousin
prayed.

on the excellent responses made by
the children to the questions in
catechism. Bemidji is one of the i'm,

 hearted task of helping her valiant, but illiated ally-bleeding, starving Armeniam-back to health, strength and self-support.
 Samuel E.. Newman of Middleton, Idaho, graduate of the College of Idaho at Caldwell, an army chaplain during the war, and last year in charge of West Washington head quarters of Near East Relief at Seat !. tie, has been picked by Near East Re lef to superintend huge educational and auxiliary relief farm at AleXan- dropol, Armenia.
 Mrs. Newman, his wife, formerly Miss Ethel Long, a South Idaho girl, who is a graduate of the college at Caldwell too, and also of the 0. A. C., with the class of 1920, has been placed in charge of the relief scciety's of- fices in the same city. g
 The Newmans left Seat,le l. Aarly last summer TOT tle dCLudl Feliel llelu For the last few months they have been surrounded by maddening scenes of suffering and menaced by all manner of personal perils at a big orphanage center in Alexandropol "a death- haunted hub of colossal human misery, where every day they see dozens die in the streets from starvation, cholera and typhus for the want of food and care.
 Here, Mr. Newman is witnessing the actual relief which food and funds he, personally, helped to gather, have made possible, while his successor, s, P. Hazard, 339 Burke building, Se- attle, with fellow directors of Near East Relief in the Northwest are driv- ing hard for additional aid needed to curb the harvest of death.

grain donated by American farmers.
 This is but one of several vast patches comprising more than 1S0,0C0 acres of once fertile soil of Armenia and Southern Russia, laid waste by war and Ottoman vandalism, to be brought back into, production next year by Americas aid through Near East Re lief. Mile upon mile over this great expanse and littering millions of acres more, leading back into old Armenia, now desolated country of blackened ruins, lay the unburied bones of count less victfms-grewsome relics of mas sacre, war, deportation and famine, which have followed each other in Q tragic procession during the last seven years. "
 Nearly all labor upon the Alexan. dropol farm and the various others, is being done by boys from the orphan, ages of the Near East Relief, who are being carefully trained in all phases of successful farming in order that they, with the thousands of others, being tutored in . business and indus try, good citizenship and self-govern. ment, may help salvage their country from ruin.
 Armenia's men were practically ex- -terminated holding the eastern front in the World War against the Turks and saving Asia to America and her allies after Russia had deserted. Most of the remnant that survived have since perished in massacres and de- portations that followed the coming of peace to the rest of the world, and in Armenia's finaN struggle against Bolshevism and Turkish invasion that continued till late last spring.
 So, these orphanage wards their sons and their brothers-who are alive today only because of Americas care, with those thousands still outside pleading for help, which people of this district are helping to provide through their support of Near East Relief, must shoulder the burdens of men in build ing a new Near East over the blood soaked ruins of old Asia Minor.

penetrating regions that due to their topography are only accessible in winter time.
 ,. Summer pack trails and routes followed by reconnaissance parties are q means of opening up new re- gions to the prospector, who after all is the foundation upon which the discovery of new mineral deposits rests.
 6. Bridges and ferries are always an element of importance in enabling the pioneer country of Alaska to be penetrated. In many cases the pro- vision of safe means of crossing a glacial stream often opens wide areas.
 TAKING BROAD VIEW
 It is always necessary to look upon the development of the Terri tory in the broadest possible way. For instance, the region around Me Grath has now develoRed into a very substantial placer mining camp and with the addition of the largest lode mine north of the Alaska Range. The work carried out in this region cen- tering about the Ophir- -Tacotna road has been potent force in bringing about this activity. Even though this region is 300 miles from the govern- ment Railroad, it's development cre- ates real tributary to it. The in- creased number of travellers passing over the Rainy Pass trail has given important activity to the railroad, and with the provision of a better winter and summer trail north of the Alaska Range. this traffic will with out doubt increase.
 For the above reasons, while those roads projected and directly tribu- tary to the railroad. such as the Chatanika-Miller House, Kantishna, Talkeetna Cache Creek, or Willow Creek roads, are of high importance, so also are more remote projects, but still having a direct bearing on the full development of the railroad. These latter are projects such as Ophir-Tacotna. Berry's Landing, Kan tishna, Rampart-Hot Springs, Ruby and Ophir. The making possible of through traffic from Eagle to Ta- mana Crossing which is now barely protected, would be among the latter class of roads.
 RESULTS ARE FORECAST
 But in still broader sense this commission is forced to look upon the development of the Territory in it's entirety and relief in overland communication given anywhere re- suits in increasing the coastwise traf- fic and consequently will result in the end at least in better service and perhaps in lower rates to the whole Territory.
 Tn this way, while the rugged coastal country of Southeastern Alas ka makes impracticable the execu- tion of through overland routes, nor are such routes necessary, the va rious projects planned or executed are of high value and their compile

This new year sees the fond hope of Interior Alaskans fulfilled ln the completion of the Government Rall- road from the North Pacific to the uayigable tributary, the Panama, of the Yukon. All that this means to the entire Territory is deserving ot the deepest consideration and is the source of the cheeriest outlook for those tenacious pioneers who so long have kept up the life of the great h. terior. The running over of the va r;ous substantial reasons for this brightest of New Years for Alaskans can in discovering the reality only add to the cheer of the day and year.
 Fairbanks now becomes accessible the year round for passengers ana freight. In other words, there IS no longer a "close of navigation" for this Interior mining center. No longer will merchants there have to stock up their warehouses to carry them
  goods can now be made accessible at all seasons from Seattle. Mining operations can be assured of con- tinued operation with no extraordin- ary precaution against breakdoWns or shortage of men and supplies. The new status economically which the region between Seward and Fair banks contiguous to the railroad now takes is that of region accessible to year round navigation and with freuuent boat service. To picture this new status one can imagine that the year round open waters of the North Pacific had been dragged north 500 miles to Fairbanks. / -. ARTERIES ARE NEEDED
 With this great work fact it is necessary to plan further the reach ing of all that great region contig- uous to the railroad It is fruitless to expect traffic to reach the rail- road unless arteries for communica~ tion are provided for it. This tribu- tary system has various elements.
 1. The provision for the river nav igation on the Interior river systems. About 4,OOO miles of rivers with ex- cellent navigation conditions for five months in each year are available by the railroad.
 2. Wagon roads from points upon the Government Railroad. This in- cludes in some cases systems of roads leading from Fairbanks to the various farms and mineral workings thereabouts.
 3. Wagon roads from points on navigable Interior rivers accessible from the river terminal of the rail- road. This type of road is that ex- isting at Hot Springs, at Rampant, Circle, Eagle or Ruby In each case these roads reach to mineral work ings, but the origin of the traffic is always the navigable river at the initial point of the road.
 4. Sled roads and winter trails in some cases following along the In terior river system and fin others

tion with increased resources will be a source of encouragement in the coming year.
 The most important project still in road, which, while passable through out at present, will require at least another seasons work
 The keeping up and extension of our existing roads at Juneau, Skag- way, Ketchikan, Wrangell, Peters burg and Sitka and the giving of sim liar relief to that recently provided at Yakutat and Strawberry Point and all sources of encouragement to sub- stantial settlers and pioneers. The work already performed or planned in the Copper River Valley is based on the just estimate of the potentialities of that highly mineral l ized district It must be remembered
 that the great Kennecott mines are 1 located in this region and it does not seem reasonable that that great
 mineral deposit is an isolated one. The projected Nizina River cross
 ing and the extension of the Chisto-
 china trail to Mantasta Pass are only tokens of the past records and the future hope of the great mineralized l hvy of jects. t.
 l In the lower Kuskokwim where sc little overland relief has been given 1 in the past, it is hoped to complete
 the laying out of the most important l winter dog trails, the chief need oi
 that region. In the same way the
 extension and linking together of
 the fragmentary road and trail sys. | tenn of the Seward Peninsula wait
 upon more liberal appropriations. AL
 though somewhat isolated from the I remainder of Alaska, the Seward Pe-
 ninsula with it's past and present production of gold and Siberian traf-
 fife. is worthy of continued encour.

WHO MUST MAKE RETURNS
 ON INCOMES

! With the approach of the period for filing income tax returns-Jan- uary 1 to March 15, 1922-taxpayers are advised to lose no time in the l combination of their accounts for the year 1921, says Collector Burns Poe in circular received in Juneau A new and important provision of the Revenue Act of 1921 is that every person whose gross income for 1921 was $5,O0G or over shall file return, regardless of the amount of net tn- ! come upon which the tax is assessed. Returns are required of every single person whose net income was $1,OO0 or over and every married person Hv' ing with husband Or wife whose net income was $2,O00 or over. Widows and widowers and persons separated or divorced from husband or wife, are regarded as single persons. Net income is gross income, less certain deductions for business ex- penses, losses, taxes, etc. Gross in come includes practically all income received by the taxpayers during the year: in the case of the wage earner, salaries, wages, bonuses and com missions; in the case of professional men. all amounts received for profes- sional services; in the cases of farm | CTS all profit from the sale of farm products, and rental or sale Of land.
 In the making of an income tax re- turn for the year 1921, every tax payer should present to himself the following questions:
 What were your profits from your business, trade, profession or voca- tion?
 Did you receive any interest on bank deposits?
 Have you any property from which you received rent?
 Did you receive any income in the form of dividend or interest from stock or bonds?
 I Did you receive any bonuses during the year?
 Did you make any profit on the sale of stocks, bonds, or other property real or personal?
 Did you act as a broker in any transaction from which you received commissions?
 | Are you interested in any partner ship or other firm from which you received any income?
 Have you any income from royal ties or patents?
 Have you any minor children who are working?
 Do you appropriate, or have the right to appropriate, the earnings o1 such children? If so, the amount must be included in the return of income. Has your wife any income from any source whatsoever? If so it mus be included in your return or report ed in separate return of income.
 Did you receive any directors fees or trustees fees in the course of the year.
 Do you hold any office in a benefit society from which you receive in , come?
 Do you hold Hiv,a aweATNOUN Answers to all of those questions are necessary to determine whether a person has an income sufficiently
 large to require that a return Dc filed, and may be the means of avoid ing the heavy penalties imposed fol failure to do so within the time pre-
