THOSE MOVIE WEDDINGS.

Before you blame the movie actors and actresses
whose re-marriages under scrutiny or VIII
Hays and the federal government it might be we'll
Ito ask yourself how far YOU have been factor
z in making them possible.
The scandal arises from the rapidly with which
those who dissolve their bonds of matrimony in
the divorce courts remarry.
The public is shocked by the fact that generally
Of these parties to the divorce might look out
of the windows to a waiting limousine within which
sits another prospective wife husband, ready for
drive a or national line to the nearest
clergyman magistrate.
Most of the divorce laws. a matter of state con-
troll, have within them limit of year within
which the party to divorce may not remarry.
The guileless theory of this law that divorces
may sometimes be obtained in haste and that this
period of waiting may restore the parties to a
different view of their differences and the old ties
be again renewed.
] The truth is that this law has been generally dis
regarded and that large number Of people gen
orally from the prosperous walks of life. have
simply betaken themselves the arbitrary
state lines to enter into new marriage relations
Tie newspapers, from time to time have been
filled with accounts of special trains bearing we'd
ding parties, which have steamed away from the
divorce of state to the altar in another.
The sanction OF social leaders to such marriages
the with which the parties keep their social
ties. is now questioned when those who have fol-
lowed the custom happen TO be members OF a
profession which has lately given the public many
other scandals.
There might be made also the suggestion that
the approve! of law to such marriages would be
better at any rate. than the irregular alliances
that have been formed in the movie world and out
of it and that these persons now under fire have
left vestige OF respect for decent opinion
and regard of others
The whole troubles goes back to the fact that
marriage and matrimony should not be matter of
state control but of national legislation. If it be
put upon legal rather than sacred ground
1t is thardivorce laws should be national
in scope that what may be grounds in Indiana
would be a bar in New York and that what
may be grounds in New York no grounds in Cali
forna.
A national divorce law, long divorces are a
part of the present social system would obviate
any Of these shocks to public confidence and public
conscience
such law would have very definite provisions
as to remarrage and those who transgressed
would automatically expatiate themselves. They
would be barred from good society in America and
probably face punishment for their disregard
Those who have taken interest in such law
possibly may themselves as witnesses to the
Mexican marriages.

For the adoption o a day that lessons these hours

20 view labor as other than commodity to be

UNCLE

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
TEACHER BIRD.
BY HOWARD r. GARIs.

Where are you going, Uncle Wig
gily?" asked Nurse Jane one eve
ming after supper, as she saw the
bunny gentleman hop slowly down
toward the front gate Of the hollow
stump bungalow. Are you going to
the moving pictures?"
''Not this evening answered the
rabbit gentleman. AT least not right
away. If you would like TO go I'll
come back in time TO take you 10 the
second show"
That would be delightful" spoke
the muskrat lady housekeeper, but
where are you going now"
"Out into the woods little way,
TO look for some hungry birds" an
swered the bunny gentleman. Il
have still left some OF the garden
seeds. for the horned lark TO whom
I gave some yesterday, did not eat
them all So I thought 1 would now
take them TO the woods"
But evening is coming on" said
Nurse Jane. soon il will be dark,
and there are few birds out after the
sun goes down. Besides, it Will be
too dark for them 20 see to pick up
the seeds you scatter"
That may be so" agreed Uncle
WIggily. But It will not be entirely
dark for half an hour or so, and
may meet a hungry bird"
So saying, the kind bunny gentle
man hoped 10 the woods.
Uncle Wiggily was hopping here
and there, looking amid the trees
and bushes for some bird he might
feed with the leftover garden seed
when. all OF a sudden, there was a
rustling in the underbrushes. and a
large brown bird. with few light
feathers on the side of its tail, moved
out into a little clearing. Uncle Wig
/ gily. N the twilight. saw that the
bird had a short but strong beak,
and a large mouth, around which
/ grew bristling hairs.
What bird are you?" asked the
I bunny politely.

but my song sounds like those

dark forest. catching in its big. brist-

out. there sprang forth the Skilery
