DIVORCE GIVEN
VANDERB|LTS

PARIS. June IA decree Of
divorce was granted today to Mrs
William x. Vanderbilt, I'd, the for
mer Virginia Fair.
The judgment, which followed the
usual routine court efforts to egtab'
lish a reconciliation, was read in the
private office of the president Of the
third chamber Of the Seine tribunal.
The sending of the papers from
the Cancellation court to the Seine
Tribunal earlier in the week led TO
erroneous reports that the divorce
had been granted, but 1t was not
until today that the decree was
signed and made effective.
The divorce action has been pend.
ing in the Paris courts for many
weeks and both Mr.. and Mrs. Van
derbilt have made personal appear.
ances and refused to accept con-
Citation.
The fact that the Vanderbilt
were estranged has long been
known, but until q few months ago
Mrs. Vanderbilt refused to take any
divorce action. Eventually she
came to Paris and filed an action
here.
Many reports have been circu.
lated to the effect that Vanderbilt
would marry Mrs. Rosamond Ian.

NEW ORLEANS. La, June 2.
LouisIana's hope that the flood
waters might recede In time for
salvaging of q small crop In the
flooded areas, appeared to be blasted
today with the approach of a second
Mississippi crest which has already
reached Helena, Ark, according to
reports here.
The new crest will not attain the
proportions Of the first disastrous
onslaught, and viii carry no threat
to the lower river levees between
Baton Rouge and New Orleans, but
will probably delay rehabilitation in
the already flooded area until such
a late date that 1t will be impossible
to plant new crops.
Thousands Of Acres Saved
The saving of several thousand
acres in the Bayou Black section
was effected this morning when pile

Modern Girl Should Adopt
Unconditional Attitude,
Says Miss Lee.
SHE WOULD BE HAPPIER
AS 1t Is Love Still Is All Alb
sorbing For Her.
BY Martha Lee

A lot Of men complain these days
because, as they declare, women are
changing. "They are trying to ape
the men," is often said Of the mem
bers of the fair sex.
Far be it from me to defend mas
culinity in my sister woman, espe'
cially when it is manifested i'll ex-
IRENE manly" styles of dress, but
it would surely be blessing if
women could acquire the more un.
emotional, matter of fact, attitude
that the average man assumes in
matters of the heart.
It's trite conclusion, but still
true, that woman's love for a man
usually takes in all the interests of
her life, while the love of the man
for the woman of his heart, is badly
DETECTED by a multiplicity Of bust
ness and other interests.
That's why a woman, after a dis
appointing love affair, finds it diff
cult to pick up the threads of her
life, while the man usually patches
up the broken ,places in his heart
with comparative ease.
Perhaps as woman's interest con.
tinues to broaden, she, too, will &C.
quire this admirable nonchalance of
the men in this regard. There are
few feminine mental accomplish,
ments which would be more valu
able to her.

perfect figure.
Ham for Sausage
what do we talk about?" laughed
an official lady to me. Reducing, OF
course. From Mrs. Coolidge down.
We tell our pet methods. She thinks
that she was just born plain lucky,
for she doesn't seem to get fat
whatever she eats. But she says
that the President must be careful
she just won't have a fat husband
even if he Is President Of the
United States.
"She laughed and laughed at q
Senate ladies' luncheon about him
swapping his sausage for ham be,
cause he had gained about ten
pounds since the winter buckwheat
strip and sausage breakfasts be-
gan!
Isn't it just like a man to make
a sacrifice by giving up something
he likes for something which he
likes even more?' she chuckled."
Her Permanent Waves
There is little connection between
waistlines and permanent waves,
unless both have to do with per-
sonal appearance, but the perma-
nent wavers may or may not be in
teresting to learn that Mrs. Coolidge
has had two and is not sure, say
they, that she will have another.
She has the "frizzy" rather than
the waved kind, just rs before her
permauents, she preferred a round
curl to a marcel.
Her hair is the kind that women
boast is so long they "can sit on It,"
Probably. Mrs. Woodbridge Ferris,
wife of the Senator from Michigan,
who is known as lone of the seven
Sutherland sisters" because of her
ropes of hair, is the only official
woman with more hair than the
First Lady.

Fish Culture Increasing

More than 10000 persons in the
United States are engaged in fisher
les or the fishing industries, business
that represents an investment Of $780,
100000, according to the annual report
of the bureau of fisheries, says the
Popular Mechanics Magazine.
Fish culture is steadily developing
in this country, supporting the con-
tention that an acre of water can be
made to produce as much nourishing
food as an acre of land, the report
shows.
About 100000 worth Of trout eggs
are produced by commercial firms
each year and surplus fish are mar
keted at good prices. The annual out
put Of goldfish is approximately TO-
100000, valued at $35OO00. More than
10000 acres Of oyster grounds are
under lease from Massachusetts to
Florida.

According to the code of gallantry.
9 man must not strike q woman. not
even with q flower. John Tobin, IN

that lays his hand upon a woman
save In the way of kindness. Is Q
wretch, whom 'twere gross Aattery to
name a coward"
Yet ip France 1t Is iudicially de-
creed that a man is not culpable who
chastises his wife for deceiving him.
This Judgment was rendered In case
In which woman sought a divorce
from her husband on the ground that
he had beaten her. She demanded an
investigation of her charges. The hus.
band did not deny the accusation. but
pleaded justification and presented
proof of his wife's treacherOus con-
duct. ThereupOn the court held that
the physical violence Of the husband,
even'when fully proved and admitted.
did not constitute ground for a d.
vorce, because the wife had herself
provoked it
