WOMAN PASTOR
SAYS DIVORCE BILL
NOT RIGID ENOUGH
Greater Use of Separation
Clause Would Help Meas
ure, She Declares,

By United Press
CHICAGO, Feb. THE ultimate
destruction of the American home,
unless nationwide steps are taken to
curb the divorce evil, was predicted
today by DR.. Lennis Rhodes, :rdained
minister and assistant pastor of the
Second Baptist Church here.
THE divorce question is the great
est problem the nation faces today. q"
Miss Rhodes said. "Timorous legis-
lators and a quiescent public have
failed to help the situation"
THE proposed Capper bill, written
by Mrs. Edward Franklin White Of
Indianapolis, does not go far enough
in it's restrictions Of grounds for d.
vorce. A greater use Of the separa-
ton clause would improve the meas
ure.
'Infiedelity without collision and
incurable insanity should be the only
grounds for divorce"

Now there was Brig. Gen. Alvin P.
Hovey," continued the venerable gen
tleman from Posey, as he stroked his
beard. Hovey began life as a boot
black. When he was working later
in a brickyard, his ambition won the
interest of Judge Pitcher, another
Posey County man, who saw that he
received an appointment to West
Point. Hovey won his spurs at the
Battle of Champion Hill, near Vicks
burg, and after serving a term as
Governor of Indiana, was chosen for
the South American consular service.
Abraham Lincoln was another in
dividual who came to the attention Of
Judge Pitcher. 1t was OF Pitcher that
Lincoln once borrowed A law book.
The cover Of the book, soiled in the
rain, caused Lincoln to offer to pull
all the weeds out Of Pitchers gar

IN MIND BE MEN

In malice be ye babes, but in mind
be mem Cor. 1920.
Childlikeness is a fine thing in a
man, but childlikeness is both lu-
dicrous and dangerous.
To be joyful of heart. eager, hope
full. sympathetic, like a healthy child,
without guile or malice, is to belong
to the kingdom of heaven.
Christ says So
But to have a childish mind when
we are grown up is to neglect the
gift of reason and the power of
mental advance which God has be.
slowed upon us.
A manly mind is firm, but not
fixed
1t is ready to hear new evidence,
to welcome more light
1t is eager to learn by experience
and not afraid of any truth that God
has written in the Holy Scripture
or in the book of nature.
"Show me-" it cries, land I will
obey, with my reason as we'll as with
my heart"
Reasonable Interpretation (says st
Paul in this chapter), preaching that
can be understood, is fine thing.
Jesus does not ask us to lay aside
our reason or to shut our eyes tc
facts, but simply to deny ourselves
and follow him.
Even childish minds may do this
But His best followers are those
who by their growth have learned tc
put away childish things and in
mind be men.

A BEDTIME STORY
BY THORNTON W. BURGESS

, he scratched his nose thoughtfully.
You see, he couldn't understand how
any one who was very big could get
into that old house. SO he spent
more time than ever watching it.
At last his patience was rewarded.
Late one afternoon some one in a
black and white coat came out Of
that old house. 1t was one of Jimmy
Skunk's children, and he was smaller
than the young Chuck. The latter
noticed this right away. "PCOh;"
said he to himself. Inn not afraid
of that fellow. l could drive him
out of that house without half try
ing"
He watched the young Skunk am
BILE along up through the Old Or
chard. Presently he saw Bowser
the Hound headed that way and he
chuckIed. You see, he expected that
Bowser would promptly chase that
young Skunk, and perhaps kill him.
But Bowser' did nothing of the kind.
When he saw that young Skunk he
turned aside and went around him.
He didn't even bark at him. He was
most polite to him.
The young Chuck became thought
full. Here was q mystery. There
must be something he didn't know
about He would wait before trying
to take possession of that old house.
1t was the beginning Of wisdom on
the part OF the young Chuck.

The young Chuck, who was living
in the old stone wall on the edge Of
the Old Orchard, didn't expect to live
there always. He mercy intended to
stay there for a while. He still
dreamed of seeing more CT the Great
World. But it was very pleasant
there, with plenty to eat close at
hand, and was as safe Il place as he
could imagine. So the days slipped
away and the. young Chuck still
made his home in the OLD stone wall.
One day he foiloxe>>~- the old stone

ing there. He was l;s3ppoint 81. You
have no idea how disappointed he
was, Then a happy Thought came
to him.
Perhaps" thought he, that who
ever is living here is not big enough
and strong enough to fight ne. I'm
not afraid of any one my own size
I'll just watch this place and find
out who does live here"
SO every day the young Chuck
went down where from the bushes
he could watch that hoe under the
apple tree. His friend, Striped Chip
munk, foIrd him there one day
What are you doing down here?'
he ASKED.

young Chuck.

You mean to tell me you don't know

The young Chuck nodded. That's
just what I mean" said he. What
sort of a fellow is he?"
Most independent fellow. In all

everybody is very polite. replied
Striped Chipmunk, and then scam
