INVOLVED IN TRIAL
Although he hat secured a dlrorce from
hit first wife lu Kansas and married again.
Robert Gideon Joyner, a telegraph operator,
occupies the unique position of havlug two
wives to support, Instead of one. This
unusual state of affairs was brought about
by a suit for alimony instituted In supe
rior court by Mrs. Roaalle Y. Joyner, wife
No. 2, against her former husband.
Attorney George Gordon raised the point
as to whether Joyner's first wife could re
marry If she accepted alimony unless she
secures a divorce In the Georgia court.s
Judge Pendleton held that the Kansas de
cree did not affect the right of the wife to
alimony, and that Joyner’s second marriage
was not hlgamoua. and he accordingly
awarded the plaintiff llfi per month for the
support of t*e; young daughter. 15 per
month for herself, and 125 lawyer’s fees.
During bis argument of the case. Attor
ney Gordon created a small sensation by de
claring that more weight should be given
the minority opinion of the supreme court
regarding divorce decrees, because Justices
White and McKenna, rendering the major
ity opinion, were Roman Catholics, ami be
lieved that the church only could sanction
divorce decrees.

STORE OPEN MONDAY EVENING.
The Greater Atlanta executive com
mittee has seen!
Until Wednesday the committee had
Just talked and thought, but now the
members have the knowledge of a crltl
cal eye. and they are stronger for ex
tension than ever.
The committee took the trip around
the city, and through the suburbs—
that is, the western suburbs, in four
automobiles, leaving the city hail at
about 11 o'clock Wednesday morning
and returning about 4:30 o'clock In the
afternoon.
The owners of the machines were
John W. Grant, Jack Cohen, James IL
Gray and Charles Johnson, of the Gate
City Automobile Company. . In addi
tion to his company and advice, both of
which proved of benefit to the com
mittee, Mr. Johnson furnished a know!
edge and ability of automoblllng over
rough and muddy places which stood
the members In good stead.
The committee flrat drove out past
'onnle Brae and to Hapevllle. The
lumbers were provided with maps
drawn by the city engineer. From
Hapevllle they drove west to East
Point, to the west by Weetvlew ceme
tery; to Battle Hill, to the Hemphill
pumping station, to Bellwood and to
Peachtree road, where It Is crossed by
Peachtree creek.
The members expressed surprise at
the great development and poselbllltlee
of this suburban territory and became
even more enthusiastic In their ad
vocacy of extension and expansion.
At 1:30 o'clock the party went to
the sanitary grounds, where Chief Jent-
xen and hli men gave a big barbecue.
There were all kinds of good things
galore there.
After that, the ride waa continued. A
member of the committee expressed the
feeling" of the committee In this way:
"Barkis Is willing. Let Miss Suburbs
do her part."
The roads were rough and muddy In
several sections of the county, outside
the city limits, and several times It
looked as It the autos were going to get
stuck, but the big, throbbing machines
went through without a snap or a hitch.
The committee will leave again Fri
day morning at 10 o’clock to finish the
ride over the city limits and through
the suburbs.
