Christian Science

Paul's words to the Corinthians
THE things which are seen are
temporal; but the things which are
not seen are eternal" constitute
the gold text Sunday, in the les
son-serrnon on "Unreality,' in al
branches of The Mother Church
The First Church of Christ, Scien-
tist, in Boston, Mass
The responsive reading includes
Pauls counsel to Timothy. But
they that will be rich fall into
temptation and a snare, and into
many foolish and hurtful lusts,
which drown men in destruction
and perdition But thou, Q
man of God, flee these things; and
follow after Righteousness, Godli-
ness, faith, love, patience, meek
ness"
A Scripture citation from Mat
thew includes the following words
of Christ Jesus: "Ye shall know
them by their fruits. Do men
gather grapes of thorns, or figs OF
thistles? A good tree cannot
bring forth evil fruit, neither can
a corrupt tree bring forth good
fruit
A passage from Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures, y
by Mary Baker Eddy. states: "Ey-
erything good or worthy. God made.
Whatever is valueless or baneful,
He did not make,-hence its un-
reality"

Election to Be Test.
Reform forces apparently have been
inactive since the law was passed. Only
one clergyman has given the matter
attention in a sermon, and the Reno
Women's Citizens Club has made no
public demonstration. A test, however,
is expected at the Reno City election

that casinos are to be placed in certain
buildings and that resorts are. to be

carpenters at work, extending its

it has added a roulette wheel. It had

In the town of Ely, where the dis
trict attorney tried to make a clean
up of the gambling houses last year,
activities have been resumed already.
Yet an old-timer, Zeb Kendall, mining
man and former member of the Leg
islature, laments that the atmosphere
of the bad old mining days will not
be recaptured.

Fasteners who have visited these
places compare them to speakeasies-

are perhaps quieter and less brilliantly

sas and Idaho, with their new 90-day
residence requirements.
In spite of all this, Neyada's easy
! divorce was more or less an accident.
When Nevada became Territory, in
| 1864, the trainers of the law provided
grounds for divorce similar to those of
many other States.
But the Territory was new; people
were coming in by tens of thousands,
overwhelming in numbers the original
inhabitants. They wished rights of resi-
| dence for themselves and all rights of
citizenship. They wished to attract a
sufficient population to- enable Nevada
to become a State.
Transportation facilities were nothing
! like those of today; the trainers of the
law in their widest dreams could not
have imagined the rush of wealthy peo-
pie that was to make Reno the coun-
| try's divorce capital. In view of all
these circumstances it is easy to see
why the trainers of the law, in giving
full residence rights to those who had
been in Nevada six months, included
that of divorce.
Lord Russell Started Rush.
Many Of the newcomers had left wives
behind. A handful of these might want
divorces, without going to the expense
of returning home to bring proceed
ings in the State of origin. So Nevada,
like other States, permitted divorce by
publication, that is, the plaintiff could
publish in the newspapers number of,
times that the defendant would be de-
faulted on failure to appear in court on
a given day. This would do away with
the necessity of serving the defendant
with a summons in the State of Nevada
For 80 years under this law there was
no divorce colony at Reno and only two
or three people year made use of the
measure to free themselves of entan-
Cling alliances.
Then in 1900 came Nevada's divorce
windfall
tence for bigamy on the late Lord Rus
sell. He had discovered Nevada's six
month residence law, gained a Reno
divorce, and remarked. The story got
world publicity. People flocked to the
State; the divorce colony had begun.
"The Lies or"
Toward the close of the first decade
| of this century even the Nevadans be-
gan to feel qualns. A referendum
abolished the right to gamble, though 1t
did not put gaming cut of business. In
1913 the residence period for divorces
was increased to q year. This cut the
number down, but 1t did not seem to
affect bank clearingS much. However,
the hotel interests and Reno lawyers
lost money; and the next year the six
month period was restored, and with 1t
the divorce colony. And 1t grew. In
1927, the residence period was reduced

Kahn contended that prior to his
marriage his wife had agreed to bear
him children, but that after her mar
riage, when she found herself in the
way Of becoming a mother, she SUBJ
mitted to an illegal operation.
He did not claim that an annulment
could be granted because his wife bore
no children, but that representation had
been made by his wife before marriage
that she would become a mother, upon
which he relied.

PERHAPS THE BEGINNING
OF AN EXPORT BUSINESS

SPOKANE.-The w. W. Powell COM
pany, which has match block factory
in Spokane and Nelson, B. c., has sent
a trial shipment of white pine match
blocks to Great Britain.
British match manufacturers have
always drawn their material exclusive
ly from the Scandinavian countries,
but if the Nelson match blocks, sawn
from match planks from selected Koo-
tenay white pine, are found to COM
pare with the Scandinavian match
blocks when tried out with British
machinery in British plants it may be
the beginning of substantial export
business to Great Britain.
Five cars of this material, packed
in special containers were shipped via
Vancouver and the Panama Canal. Two
of the five cars have already reached
Great Britain, and three are still OF

The highest expectation OF wheat

possibilities is that while there may {
