DEGREES CONDITION
CAUSING DIVORCES
SaCredness of Marriage and
Religion in Homes Urged
by Canon Stokes.

In view of the memorial presented
on Wednesday to the General Conven-
ton of the Protestant Episcopal Church
in New Orleans proposing elimination
of the right of remarriage granted
by the church To divorced persons.
the article in the advance copy of
the Autumn issue of Cathedral Age
on The Church, the Family and Di-
Vorce." by Rev. Anson Phelps Stokes.
d D., LII. D., canon of Washington

I'm spite of Christian teaching,
there has been in recent years a
marked decline in the spiritual sig
nificance of the home" Canon Stokes
writes. at is shown by the growing
prevalence of civil marriage so that
today only two of our States require
a religious ceremony. 1t is shown
by the advocacy of trial marriag ge'-
the theory that marriage is an as
sociation terminable at the will of
either party 1t is shown in the
decline OF parental discipline: it is
doubtful indeed whether the mean
ing of these words would be even
understood III most homes todaY-a
condition for which parents, rather
than children. are to blame. But it
is shown most OF all in the situation
regarding divorce. Let me bring the
character u pleSeIll CbllulliOilS LpillS
to YOU by few striking facts:
Speaking generally, the proportion
of divorces to married people has
more than quadrupled in 80 years.
There We're only six States III the
Union where the percentage OF in
crease OF divorces in 1928 was not
marked over 1922, the average in
crease being II per cent. There has
been a steady general increase in the
divorce rate In recent decades.
According to the latest published
statistics, about one divorce is grant
ed to every seven and one-haf mar
riages in the United States.
In some Western States the pro
portion of divorces To marriages is
9S high aS one to three. In one
State-NeVada-the number of di
divorces actually exceeds the number
of maria yes. due. of course. largely
to the resort to it of unhappily mar
lied persons from other States.
'Of all the Christian nations of
the world the United States has al
together the worst record in this mat.

received. 1t is the understanding of
those concerned that the proposed stat.
ute has the backing Of the Gales gov
ernment. which more than once has
been in trouble with Washington since
1t received American recognition.
American Ambassador Sheffield, who
has been in the United States on leave,
is to reach Vera Cruz within a day or
two on his way back to Mexico City,
and he will be expected to provide the
State Department with more details
of the legislative proposal and its pur.
pose.
No one here will comment in any
way or undertake to say what the
effect may be on the pending negotia
tions for a treaty Of peace and amity
with Mexico. When these negotia
tions opened months ago, Secretary
Hughes reminded MEXICO of the ap
prehension felt here over the lant
ownership provisions. article 81, ant
added

effect retroactively, the properties o.

iNSULlN AS CANCER CURE.
New Use Found for Widely Known
Diabetes Remedy.

By Science Service.
PARIS, October 16.-1nsulin, the
widely used remedy for diabetes. has
found a use in the curing of ulcers
of the superficial veins Of the leg,
according to a statement made be
fore the French Academy of Science
by Drs. Chabanier, Dumiere and
Levert. They first noticed that dla-
betes patients receiving inSulin treat
ment did not develop certain charac-
teristic sores due to decomposition of
the excess sugar in the blood, or II
these had already broken out they
were speedily healed. They then de-
cided to try the remedy on a class
of affections not associated with
diabetes but still due to excess blood
sugar. Weak injections of insulin
were found to result in cures. Ex-
periments are now under way TO test
it's efficiency in other cases.

Holds Court Can't Save
Life Against Mans Will

Murphysboro.-Can a court save a
mans life, against his will, by order
ing a surgical operation? States At
torney John II. Soaring decided that
such action does not lie within the
Jurisdiction of the court, In an opinion
In a case placed before him.
DR.. o. House Of De Soto recently
came to Murphysboro to obtain. II
possible. an order for the amputation
Of a patients arm. The patient,
Charlie Counze, was wounded In the
arm on a hunting expedition and the
wound became infected. Doctor House,
who had charge of the case, judged
that amputation was the only sure
means Of checking the poison and saw
ing the patients life. Young Counze
refused to undergo an operation, and
the doctor came to see the states
attorney for advice.
In the meantime the patient moved
to Missouri, where he Is under the
care of his mother, and no further re
ports of his condition have been re.
ceived.
A similar case ended In the death
of the patient in st. Louis. Michael j
Mulcahey, a railroad engineer living
here, suffered bruise which became
infected, and the doctors In the st
Louis hospital, where he was taken
decided upon amputation Of Mulca
hey's leg. Mulcahey refused to con
sent to such an operation, and died
In the hospital early this month.

HEROES OF WAR
LIVING QUIETLY
Only Hazy Memory Now
Remains of Brave Deeds.

Neutrality-suspicious. men who came
back from the baptism Of Gre In
France six years ago, heroes for a
fieeting hour, have melted into the
mass of humanity from which they
stood apart gioriously for a brief mo-
ment, and are as completely out Of
the picture as IL there had never been
q war.
In the thick book In the voluminous
files of the War department their
names can be found-those whose con.
spicuous bravery brought recognition
from their own government and others.
But In the minds of their cOuntrymen
only a hazy memory remains.
Six years ago, the name Of Maj.
Charles w. Whittlesey was on millions
of tongues, the hero Of the 'lost bat
talion"-"Go-to-Hell Whittlesey"-who
refused to surrender his command
when 1t was cut or for five days with
out support in Argonne forest, under
heavy fire. Melancholy, he jumped
from a liner at sea. vanished from
life and men.
Maj. Gen. william Haan, commander
Of the Thirty-second division, a Ma
tional Guard outfit, died. victim Of
disease. leaving a record of conspicuous
bravery In action, and a wisdom at
the council table.
Those other heroes whose names
were watchwords for time have
dropped from notice. Two Of them
are back on the farm. Sergt. Alvin
York. who captured 120 Germans, Is
back In Tennessee. Just across the
line in Kentucky, at Devils Jump
is living the quiet life Of farmer.
Sergt. Willie Sandlin perhaps re-
calls how. on a rainy day. he felt, at
Bois de Forges, France, when he ad-
vanced alone on three German machine
gun nests with bullets flying all around,
and hurled the grenades which tore
into pieces the enemy crews which
were holding up the advance.
In the same state, at Lexington,
lives Sergt. Samuel Woodfill, who was
acclaimed the outstanding hero Of the
American forces, for his part In silenc-
ing three machine gun nests one after
the other, killing eleven men and cap
turing others.
The foremost American air ace,
Capt. Eddie v. Rickenbacker, has set
tied down to a prosaic life in the auto
mobile business In Detroit Some of
his comrades, like Kipling's sergeant,
are still in the army.
Sergt. Frank Hunter, credited with
nine planes, and Capts. Arthur ID.
Brooks, Martinus e. Stenseth and Ar
thur E. Easterbrook, all with six vic
tories on the records. are still In the
service.

excellent advice from the Horse Asso-

The driver must hold his lines tau
Experience has shown that nearly all
drivers get excited and push on the

Different Kinds of Food
When Hen Is Confined

When the hen is confined to the poul-
try house and its immediate surround
lngs, perhaps a small yard, the only
way that she can make eggs is TO re-
ceive from the caretaker the various
different kinds of food that she would
obtain on free range in summer. or
their equivalents. On most farms there
is a reasonably good variety Of grains,
including corn, wheat, oats and bar
ley, and these form sufficient variety
so far as they are concerned. In adj
dition there should be ground grains,
including wheat, bran and cornmeal, to
use In dry or damp mashes. To take
the place of the bugs and worms of the
summer season beef scraps, such as
are furnished by dealers in poultry
supplies. or cut fresh bone should be
given.
