First 5 Years! Not First 100 Found Most Difficult in Married Life
 Divorces More
 Numerous.

The first five years of married life in the United States seem to be the hardest, because in that pe- riod 35.7 per cent of all divorceS are secured, according to statisti- clans of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. After the first five years, however, the pro- portion of divorceS for each suc- ceeding five-year period shows a decline, until divorces occurring after 20 years or more of married life represent only 10.1 per cent of the total. Taking all durationS together, out of every 1000 mar riages, 164 end in divorce.
 Of fifteen leading nations whose divorce records were studied by the Statisticians, Bulgaria alone had a higher percentage of di- vorces than the United States in the first five years of marriage. The high United States in the first five years of marriage. The high Bulgarian figure of 65.8 per cent is offset, however, by the fact that the total number of divorceS in that country is relatively in significant-being only 27 per 1000 marriages.
 In the ratio of total divorces to marriages, regardless of duration of marriage, the American record of 164 per 1000 exceeds that of any other country covered by the study. Austria came next to the United States with proportion of 107 divorces to 1000 marriages, while Switzerland followed with 99 per 1000. The proportions in Germany and France were respec- lively 77 per 1000 and "A per 1000. England and Wales considered to- gether were the lowest on the list with a record of only 12 divorces for every 1000 marriages.
 For the proportion of divorces in marriages of long duration, New Zealand leads the list. AL most one-fifth of the divorces in that Dominion occur after 20 or more years of marriage, with nearly the same proportion pre- vailing in Sweden and Norway, as compared with about one-tenth in the United States and only one per cent in Spain.
 In the general divorce situation in this country, the statisticians find some consolation in the fact that the marriage rate of 10.4 per 1000 population is the highest of any of the countries studied, and that marriages disrupted after short duration twill often be childless ones, or at least will not involve the breaking up of fam fly witA several children"

You see, when you have to

not a pleasant outlook, and
not a pretty picture. Is
there any suitable explana-
ton and fitting remedy that
we may employ in order to
correct such conditions?
We have youth in crime
because we fail to provide
them with proper outlets and
upbringing. The association
of bad companions, broken
homes, poor recreations and
street life can all be cont1i-
buted to the cause Of youth
in crime. Therefore, the
causes behind such a con-
dition must be wiped out. It
is noted that the influence of
the church and Sunday
School, the Boy and Girl
Scouts, the Y. M. C. AS All
Clubs and other social groups,
have a great deal to do with
the moral training of youth.
Give them the training
through the first two decades
of their lives and they will
generally go straight the rest
of their days.

YOUTHFUL CRIMINALS

It is all very well to say
that youth should have it's
fling, but statistics show
that the way of youth is
tending too swiftly toward
the path of crime. Statistics
never give US the true light
of the crime situation, but
they tell US a great deal
and they also show
US that somewhere there
must be a weakening in our
social structure. We are in
formed by authorities that
more than 20 per cent of our
crime is the work of persons
who have not yet even
reached the voting age, and
the average age is steadily
falling. This means chat
one fifth of all murderers,
robbers and those who have
committed social offenses
against our community, are
those of immature minds and
bodies, and those who should
just be reaching the thresh-
hold of a useful life. 1t is

This talk about every man

talk about the redistribution

he takes the time to figure
out just what distributing
the wealth would mean to
him, personally. If the large
fortunes in the u. S. were to
be taken from the few and
divided among the many, you
might believe it would be
possible to put a For Sale
sign on the whole chebang,
and take life as you would
like it. Before you start

would spend it, start in to

can expect to get. We will

THE NATURAL BACKGROUND

it closes with a scene in a
famous garden. The Bible,
throughout, deals with the
subjects of soil and seeds,
harvests and grain, with
thoughts concerning loaves
and fishes. The country was
the setting for miracles and
the basis of thought in many
parallels. He found his peace
away from crowds and in the
serenity of the open spaces.
It would be an enlightenment
for many a reader TO take his
Bible and go through it, list
ing each incident and state
ment regarding the associa-
ton Of law and Christ, and
to know how close we are
to Him in this place.

POPULATION FIGURES

This is the more surprising
outcome of the report, in our
minds, the fact that the num-
Der of old people would be so
much greater than the young.
This nation has offered it's
biggest opportunities to the
young and to learn they
would be replaced by the old,
seems a bit unreal.
We have grown rapidly
since that first census in 1870
and we have felt we would
continue to grow as each CEN
sus year rolled by. 1t is not
alarming to us to learn of
the decrease for we won't be
here TO be affected by it. The
one thing we Americans
would not want would be an
over-populated nation, as we
are too well aware what the
outcome of such a condition
has done to many other
crowded nations. There is
the resulting movement to
other lands, the too eager
quest for acquisition of new
territory, dissatisfaction and
upheaval within and censor
ship and dissension without.
