THE SITUATION CONTINUES
THE SUPREME COURT Of the


passed upon the now famous divorce case that came up here,
and on which SO much hung. As we understand it, the SUI
preme Court very logically declared that there was nothing
to decide upon in the case since MI, Alton had already OBJ
tanned a divorce in Connecticut.
THE NICETIES and technicaIities of the situation are
orthe lawyers and Judges to wrestle with. They are the ones
whose training, point of view and background make them
fully qualified to study such situations, and come to concur
sons. based upon law and the facts,
SPEAKING, THEREFORE,, as laymen and strictly
from the sdelines, we felt somewhat as if a sigh Of relief
could be made after reading of the action of the Supreme
Court, We viewed this matter almost entirely from the view
point Of economics-what benefits could be brought to the
Virgin Islands because Of the relatively easy divorce laws on
the statute books of St. Thomas.
o SHOULD critics accuse us Of being unmindfuI Of
the social and moral implications involved. Everyone knows
that divorces are nothing to play with; that like surgical
operations they should never be tempered with unless and
until there is nothing else that can be done. In any event,
the same people who came to the Virgin Islands for divorce
would be no more tempted to maintain their marital status
simply because they could not come here. They could just as
easily 60 to Florida OF to Reno. And since the entire group
could benefit as a result of increased expenditures because
of those who come, then let them come.
WE HOPE THAT now that the Supreme Court has va
Gated the action of both the District Court and the Court Of
Appeals, that the matter will be allowed to rest.

Many of the distasteful sections
of the Act were written in to
curb the actions of some of our
legislators. Such legislators, how
ever, have always been able to

NOTES FROM OTTAWA
COUNTY AGENT
FRED GRIMM


There's lots of fun and fellow
ship when a gang of farmers get
on building project such as our
new All Building. The men or
should say boys have great
time trying to outdo each other.
We haven't tried lifting an anvil
yet but if one should be handy
l am sure it will be lifted.
There have been as many as IS
to 80 people helping us pour con-
crete. We can't mention all of
them here. Some of the youngsters
helping included John Denk and
Byron Swan. Superintendent of
the concrete job has been Leon
Leutz - one of the spark plugs in
the new building. Leo Martin,
building. committee chairman has
been setting forms in addition to
many other jobs.
A lady from Genoa ordered some
garden bulletins. We have the bull
letins ready but somehow lost her
name. | hope she sees this and
writes us again.
So far I have looked at the boys
projects in the Allen Central, Bay
Twp. Future Farmers and Buckeye
Boosters Clubs. All the boys seem
to be doing an outstanding job
with their projects. The Bay Twp.
club is to be especially commended
for also having their project books
in such good condition.

MUSIC and BOOKS

Along with being a mighty good
librarian, Jean Gilmore is talent
ed musician.
Her father, in Canton, teaches
music. Her mother and two BIRTH
ers are outstanding musicians too.
Everybody in the family plays at
least two instruments well, and
they have family orchestra that's
called on frequently. Playing at a
homecoming festivity each year
has become tradition in the Gil
more family, so Jean went home
last weekend to participate in
this years affair. She plays the
violin in the family orchestra.
Another Ottawa countian, DR..
w. P Shortridge of Oak Harbor, is
just back from Philadelphia where
he played oboe with the Fostoria
band, which for the eighth time
came out first in competition at
the National VFW convention.
And they say that his oboe playing
was a big factor in the final count
ing of points for his bands victory
