if the men are rich and the women beauti-
full, for the notoriety is pleasing and the

domestic relations thus Advertised.
Education has been rated as the panacea
of all the ills affecting the illiterate and the
ignorant and lcentiOus. But what about

priced finishing schools? Some of the most

[ honestly believe it is the plain Old-fash-
toned married couples with their due atten-

Rome, which went to ruin with luxury and
idIeness and RIGHTEOUSNESS.

AS | have expressed 1t IN these columns
more than once, there are hundreds Of helps,
books teachers, for the righteous education
Of youth over the scantier methods which
prevailed nearly century ago, but the wave
of crime which is passing over the entire
United States has never been eQualled since
the Declaration of Independence in 1776.
The more helps we have the more need for
sheriffs and policemen. There is cog
loose in our educational machinery some
where. Education does not seem to reform.
Can it be that domestic unhappiness (and
the flood in divorce courts has given us the
evidence) has been passed along to the mod
ern descendants until the morale Of our pop
ulation has been going down grade rather
than upward and onward?
When divorce courts are crowded to the
limit all the time and little children are thus
deprived of their right, the time has come
to give more attention to home influence and
less to fractional politics.

LAX DIVORCE LAWS

IT is not disputed anywhere that the d.
vorce question has much to do with the
violent increase of domestic unhappiness
in these United States. The courts are like
the old-fashioned hoppers used in corn mills,
and they grind these divorces out in record
time. Men desert their wives and children,
leave them pennless and helpless, and travel
at their leisure and stay as long as they
please. To be able to marry again or to
get rid of this unworthy father Of the chill
dren the Wifes case gets through a divorce
court, and then both take another
partner with conditions more to their salts
faction or ViciOusness.
This is the usual route for those who
have very little money and are dependent
upon outsiders for assistance and are more
or less dependent.
But the divorce troubles Of the rich are
loudly acclaimed in the newspapers, and it
is an astounding fact that these wealthy
marital affairs absolutely shameless in
many cases. and the women often ad-
verified before divorce courts as lewd and
profigate to the limit by husbands who are
tired of looking at, and who then get free
where they desire to deed their wealth to
other children of licentious women with
whom they are too intimate.
And the papers tell of women who go to
another state and remain a stated time
which releases them from the men they are
tired of looking at, and who then get free
and able to start over again, and again get
married
These things are notorious. They are Of
everyday occurrence. They are SO common
they attract little notice, unless millionaires
are the Offenders Great wealth is the gold
en- idol of human greed and cupidity. They
enjoy to read about it. And women are SO
greedy for luxury they will marry any man
who comes along who tells them they are
bachelors or widowers and with plenty to
live on in fine houses, to travel, to dress in
fine clothes and ride in elegant automobiles
and consort with the fashionables and live
in luxury
The readers of the Country Home Col
umn will do me the justice to say I have
stated it mildly. There are brazen instances
almost daily recorded in the papers that will
make of this mild description only dull and
uninteresting facts, without excitement or

fathers, and some would do it yet if the
law permitted. An excited fundamentalist
in a Southern paper demands that all eyo-
lutionists be crucified head down.
This is not all cause for pessimism. At
least it shows that science attracts great in
terest and has vast prestige. Limitation is
the sincerest form of flattery.' If fifty
years ago legislatures did not persecute Oar
winism it is because the average legislator
had never heard of it. If people talk non
sense about Freudianism, hypnotism, Elm
stein, psychological tests, vitamins, and the
like, at least they have heard of these things
and want to hear more about them. All
they need is some clue as to what things
are 50 and what things are not.
Unfortunately those who trade on the
name of science for profit, or who are ia
naticalIy sincere about some absurd theory,
are better advertisers than the real sci
entists. They make more noise, assert them-
selves more dogmaticalIy, make more sweep
ing claims and get attention first. They are
not handicapped by the hesitations, unCer-
tanties, shyness, professional caution of the
true man of science. Reservations and
qualifications make dull reading, and the
necessary complexities Of the scientific yo-
cabulary brighten away the casual reader
Moreover, it is to be feared that some sci
entists are intellectual snObs and do not care
whether the layman understands or not.
They leave the field to pseudo-scence with
out a struggle
On the Otnef .nand, IN Ine long run real
science prevails over what the Bible terms
"scence falsely so-called," because it can
prove itself by it's words. "By their fruits
we shall know Them" the experimental
method Only real chemistry can provide
the basis for the big industrial inventions
which the public demands and appreciates.
Only real medicine can in the long run
lower the municipal death rate
There is another test Of real science; its
honesty. Fake science always tries to Gre
ate mystery to use long words for the pur-
pose Of creating confusion, to rely on occult
forces and secret processes, because only so
can it remain a profitable monopoly. Real
science relies on tests and experiments that
anyone can duplicate and does not add artl-
fetal difficulties to the real mysteries Of
nature. In a word, the real scientist and
the faker are both talking to the layman in
unknown tongues, but the real scientist is
trying to make himself understood the
faker is trying to make himself misunder-
