 Alexandria, Va. February 25.- They have arrested Mary Baggett- and the other boarding house "di- voree mothers" watched from behind slanted shutters as the man from Judge DuvalPs court came to tell her that the former husband of a recent divorcee charged that Mary testified falsely wilfully and feloniously'' about the residence claims which bol- stered so strongly the woman's case when she was granted a divorce.
 Maryis arrest came suddenly. II was the first court action talk en bearing upon anyone who has been gossiped about so much since investi- gators disclosed Alexandria's "di- voree mill.
 For many months the mill ran quietly, quickly and quiescently at prices made exceedingly low through the adoption of the modern American manufacturing principle of "big pro- duction-low unit costs"
 Pride Is Wounded
 The scandal sorely wounded the pride of the Alexandria Bar associa- - tion, and quality folk generally of Alexandria, ever ready to hotly de- fend the civic honor held inviolate in keeping with the memory of GeOrSe WdSnlngtOn ana other IamOuS residents. talked in no uncertain terms of what should be done with those who might be found forgetful of the city's reputation.
 Many have been the whispered charges of those who fathered the plan by which the hanging of night gown in closet and the payment of a small rental fee" could secure evil dence that the person seeking di- vorce had been a resident of Alexan- dria for a year. But while talk has caused speculation as to the identity of the fathers, the more invidious, seorehing charges have concerned the mothers of the plan.
 Mary Baggett's boarding house Is next door to the court in which the great share of the divorces were granted. It is charged that on the brightest days of the year when sun

you studied it with a microscope, for he had been very ingenious in the way he had lodged every contro- versial subject. And this leads me to say that when intelligent preach CTS of different denominations get together. they discuss matters upon which they all agree and when igno- rant ones get together, they begin arguing about the things upon which they disagree. It is fact. in spite of all that is said to the contrary tha upon nine tenths of all religious matters, intelligent Christians are a unit and the one tenth that remains as matters of dispute has to do large ly with questions of policy and ways of doing things rather than with es- sential principles of the Christian faith.
 The purpose uf Dr. Clark in writ ing this excellent treatise is to help us to tell in simple language the things that we believe. l once heard man say that the great orator is the man who can tell what you want to say yourself and make you feel as though he Is your own mouth piece If this be true of an author, that he is the one who tells what We would like ourselves to say-then we must acknowledge that pr. Clark is a great author.
 The book itself is an elementary treatise on Christian doctrines, but he does not use the word doctrine" very often. It is a simple, straight forward, scriptural, conversational and comprehensive statement of the old truths that our fathers believed and that most of us believe. The au- thor is sweet spirited, perfectly calm and absolutely fair in all of his state ments. He has a great reverence for the scriptures, but at the same time he illustrates his points and mak es modern applications, as he proceeds. Nearly every Christian doctrine IS passed in review; for example. there are chapters on the following sub- jects: The Bible" God; "Crea- tion"; 'The Angels; Sin; Gods Plan of Rescue; The Person of Christi; 'The Atonement"; Change of Heart; Repentence"; Faith; Good Works; "Death"; 'Resurrec- hon-; "Judgment"; Heaven: '.HeiT'.
 It is a good book to put into the hands of young Christians and my judgment Is that it will promote unity of the right sort among Christ fans. l wish for 1t a large circula- ton.
