No signs,
Nor cast behind a look
The Book is You.
Shut it up and start again.
And know each days account
Records the tiniest amount
BY which we grow as men.
Mind not the blots. The stain
Fades with the lesson learned.
Our souls are something earned
Through sorrow. grief and pain.
Record the smiles, the Song

That lifts our course above
The paths Of human wrong.
Record it All. and know
No Fate shall hold the pen.
We are not pawns. but men,
And choose the ways we go.

CUPID
BUSY WHILE
DIVORCES
FALL OFF,.
Marriages Suffer Slump
But Keep Ahead
Of Separations.

Dan Cupid and Mr.. Divorce both
suffered a severe slump during Auss
ust and September this year, But DAM
iel with his little bow and culver d
arrows appears to more than have
held his own in Bexar county.
Comparative figures for August and
September, 1924, and the same montha
in 1925, reveal that divorces decreased
at more than twice as great q rate
than marriage did.
In other words, while neither Cupid
nor Mr.. Divorce came up to the 1925
standard for those two months, the
former came more than twice as close
to obtaining it as did the latter.
A decrease of 1853 per cent Is th4
average for divorces, while marriage
so held their own that there was only
falling off of 65 per cent. .
281 SEEK DIVORCE.
During August and September lase
year 324 petitions for divorce werd
filed in the office of District Clerh
Howard D. Archer. This il 60 more
than the 261 petitions made in 1926.
At the same time, 567 marriage Ii
censes were issued by Thad w.
Smith, deputy in the office Of County
