DEPRESSION SLOWS
 DIVORCE BUSINESS
Reno'S "MilI" Feels Effect Of
 Industrial Slump

Reno, Nev., Dec. 15 UP)-The stock market and the Christmas holidays are having d depressing effect upon the Reno divorce in dustry and new arrivals are fewer than at any time of the year
 There is no Christmas rush" to Reno. On the contrary, persons who contemplate divorce usually wait until after the Yuletide to come here, experience of past years show. This is particularly true of those who have children, as they do not wish to deprive the kiddies of a home at that season of the year.
 Children of divorcees are quite numerous here and it is estimated that about 25 per cent of the peo- pie who come here for separation have minor children. Many bring them to Reno on the theory that possession is ninc-tenths of the law"

 The uncertain condition Of the stock market has had it's effect upon the divorce business, accord ing to l.. H. Beemer, county clerk, through whose office come all the complaints and degrees.

FRENCH EXPOSITION ID SHOW PROGRESS
Mans Story to Be Seen at Co., lOniaI Show in 1881

Paris, Dec. 5 LP) - Man and his works through the ages will be shown at the International Colonial Exposition. due to open next May at the gates of Paris.
 Primitive man and primitive art will come from some of the dark spots of Africa and modern man and modern art will be here from Mo- rocco, Algeria and other highly de- veloped overseas possessions of many nations.
 The United States is to be one of the many exhibitors and will have displays from its Pacific possessions, Porto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Alaska.
 In the beautiful, wooded Bois de Vincennes, adjoining Paris on the east, there will assemble colonial natives from all continents. The major part will be French but every country with colonies and others that have close commercial relations with them, have been invited.
 Buildings are being erected on the square mile of the Nincennes forest with it's big lake and two islands. The Colonial Museum is a permanent structure. All others will disappear after the six or seven months of the expositions.
 Marshal Hubert Lyautey. Frances i Empire Builder" the man who turned Morocco in twenty years from a wild land to a peaceful in dustrial and agricultural source of future French wealth, is president of the colonial show. Half a billion francs $20,000,000 was made available for the building of the ex- position and the government has thrown all it's colonial resources into an effort to convince the world that colonies can be the gTanaries and the factores of much multiplied France, peopled by 100,000,000 per sons.
 Indo-China will be represented with it's mysterious Temple of Ang- kor-Vat; Cameroon and Togo will have a village; Madagascar, much Of it still wild, will have before it's building a great carved column sur mounted with the steers horns that play such a part in its primitive art; Algeria, Tunis, Morocco, Tahiti. and all the rest of the French colonies and mandated territories will have places where their people will try to

ROMANCE RESULT
 0F PLANE RESCUE
Flier Meets Nurse in Yukon After
 Hazardous Trip

White Horse, Yukon Territory Dec. Is Pl-A romance flourished in the far north today as an offshoot to the hazardous business of rescu ing lost fiiers.
 The engagement of Everett Was son, California flier who recently res cued two aerial passengers from the frozen wilds of northern British Co., lumbia, to Miss Florence Gertrude Jones, a hospital nurse here, has been announced.
 Wasson located the plane of Cap tain F.. T. A. Burke, Canadian tiieI who had been missing more than ] month in the Liard river district and later rescued Emil Kading and Ro- bert Marten, the passengers, who with Burke had abandoned the plane. Wasson found kading and Marten guarding the body of Captain Burke, who perished as the three attempted to mush their way to aid. kading and Marten became patients in the hospital where Miss Jones works.
 Meanwhile, plea that the search for Robin Renahan, Sam Clerf and Frank Hatcher, who disappeared while flying to hunt for the Burke plane, be revived, was before Donald Sutherland, Canadian minister of de- fense.

hope, have packed their scant be- longings and boarded the weekly train.
 Time was when 4S long freight trains pulled into and out of Salina Cruz daily. The railroad yards and docks were beehives of industry, great ships stood out in the roads awaiting their turns at the docks, the town hustled night and day and money was free and easy.
 But when the Panama Canal opened and it no longer was neces- sary to trans-ship cargoes. Salin1 Cruz became a way point overnight. Rail service dWindled rapidly to two trains daily, then to one bi-Weekly and now passenger trains creep in only every seven days, crawling along over rusty rails that barely cling to q roadbed in which no one takes any interest.

 The old route was ideal from a transportation standpoint so long as trans-shipments were necessary between the oceans. The line ran 143 miles over hills no higher than 500 feet above sea level. Tn first survey was made by American en- gineers as long ago as the civil war and the road was built d decade later.
 In the heyday of the port it was possible to unload a ship, get the cargo on trains and reload again at Puerto Mexico on the Atlantic in 4S hours. But most of the sturdy laborers who accomplished such tasks have drifted back into the hills where tropical nature supplies

 Salina Cruz died b years ago when the first ship sailed through the Panama Canal, for it was trans oceanic shipping on which the pros perity Of the place depended. Hopes for it's revival were based uon the fact that the volume Of shipping was becoming too great for the Panama waterway. thus crfeating prospect that cargoes might again have to cross from the Atlantic to the Pacific by land.

 A number of divorcees are here whose 9O-day period of residence has already been established but who are awaiting a return to con- fidence in the market before filing their divorce complaints in order to make a more advantageous property settlement with their dis carded Husbands.
 Better Alimony
 Others who have opened pre- liminary negotiations with attor- neys by mail from their homes have decided to remain with their husbands a few months longer SO they can be more secure in their demands for alimony.
 Judge George A. Bartlett, divorce jurist, says the busiest time of the years is usually inNMarch or April. as the divorce-seekers come in droves after the holidays and their 90-day residence period terminates in carly spring.
 Actual statistics are not avail able to chow the number of di- vorces granted this year as com pared with last, but virtually all persons connected with divorces here agree there has been a de- cided slump.

BROTHERS CONDUCT
 JEW'S.HARP SHOP
All Made in U. s. Produced in
 Small Rear Factory

Rensselaer,, N. Y, Dec. 15 (UP) All the jewsharps made in the United States are produced by the skillful fingers of two brothers. They work in a little rear shop here that will scarcely accommo- date five persons.
 Theirs is midget industry that nearly grew up when the radio came. But the fad wore off, and now the little shop is not much buster than when it was founded some 25 years ago by their father.
 Even the tools made by John R. Smith to fashion the twaneing musical instruments still are !n use by his two sons. The elder Smith learned the trade when 15 in England. At 30 he came to the United States and settled in Troy. Eight years later he moved to Rensselaer,.
 Following his death the business passed to his sons, John N. and William. The patterns designed by their father still are copied re- ligious,y.
 The boys are happy in their trade, except for one thing. AS William put it: You are open to mbarrassment when attending a party or socIal affair and someone asks you your occupation and you tell him you make jeWsharps."
 While the instruments appear to be simple affairs the work that goes into making them is tedious. The most difficult part is in fitting the little steele tongue so that it produces the proper tone.
