What else could nc do but
seek divorce. be it asked:
A certain gentleman, 1t seems,
found II unsafe to stay home
and he dared not go on the
street for fear his wife would
follow him there and make a
scene" attracting a crowd.
On one occasion, according to
this man. for whim Attorney
Fred 5. Award filed a divorce
complaint Thursday, he locked
himself up in Il room OF their
home to keep himself out of her
reach.
BUT. she forced herself into
the room by breaking and
kicking down the door and
then beat and kicked him.
She is twenty years younger
than he, the plaintiff explains,
and is a strong woman. One of
her diversions, it appears, was
the throwing of utensils and
dishes at him.
They were married in July,
1928.

'WhOOpee' Wedding
Eve Sent Farrell
To The Hospital

Too much "whOopee" on his
wedding night Is believed TO
have been the cause of Edwin
Eugene Farrell having TO be
taken to Las Vegas hospital
early yesterday morning after he
had attempted to drink a bottle
of iodine.
Farrell had been enjoying the
evening with a group of friends
on the West Side, following his
marriage to Belva Haynie, also
of Las Vegas, and late I'm the
evening he got hold Of the
iodine bottle
Some friends stopped him be-
fore he had swallowed enough
idone TO cause trouble, accord
ing to DIR. N. Michelena, who
had charge of the patient for
the few hours he was at the hos
pital yesterday morning.
81 think bad loquor poisoned
him more than the iodine" said
Doctor Michelena yesterday.
Farrell'S parents came rushing
to Vegas from Arden, distracted,
when they learned of the mis-
hap. But now all's almost well.

MEETS DIFFICULTIES
U. S. Chamber of Commerce Sur

Business, following on the heels of
science, is attempting to convert the
wastes of American farms into useful

products, ranging from alpha cellulose
to xylose, can be made from corn stalks
and that corn cobs by the work of
chemistry can be made to yield SO prod
ucts Even corn pith, it continued, can
be converted into 20 products, includ-
ing cellulose, face powder, rayon, smoke
less powder and viscose. while straw,
oat hulls. sugar cane bagasse and flax
were also said to hold out possibility
of being transformed from troublesome
wastes into valuable raw materials.
The conclusion was reached by the
