A great number of separations come about immediately after marriage. Where as in England the proportion of divorce is only two to every 20,000 marriages and in the United States. it is 82, in Japan there are no fewer than 173 divorces to every 20,000 marri ages. Most of the divorces recorded have been brought about by “mutual consent” and through the efforts of thie go-betweens responsible for the original union. They were accomplish ed without submission to court or law. Out of the 59,000 divorces which were affected between 1883 and 1902 only 409 cases were obtained by law suits. The divoree report says: “This re markable state of affairs is atiribut able to the fact that ideas of individual rights and obligations as well as knowledge and experience of the law are but scantily developed in the minds of the Japanese people. DBut since the Japanese women are now growing in the consciousness of their dignity and rights we hear fow and then of cases of women fighting for divorces in the tourts of law.” In conclusion the report urges stricter regulations, pointing out that the general tendency in the civilized world is toward gradual diminution of divorce and that the proportion in Japan is becoming alarming. nEla et e T e R FORMER BANK CASHIER MUST SERVE ON GANG Thomasville, Dec. s—The Georgia court of appeals has decided that E. 8.

Dear Sovereign:—Next to Jesus, the mother is the dearest and most sacred to any one. The loss, therefore, of mother, is the most grievous of any ‘earthly ties. i The taking away recently of your mother, by having been transplant £din Heaven, by the will of Him who ‘knoweth and ,doeth all things wisely and well, is seemingly a hardship, yet, we would implore you to grieve not ‘as one who has no hope, but rather be of good cheer, for we feel that the beau tiful life that she lived, is a safe guar antee that her passport to the Glory ‘World is sure. “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord, for they are they that testi fy to me, and their works do follow thhem,” is true of her for whom you now mourn. We mourn with you in this hour of gore grief and afiliction and do trust that you will so live in this life that when the summons comes to you to go ‘home, that you will be prepared to ‘meet her in the Elysian fiields of Glo ry and be re-united with her and oth ers gone before, and live in bliss about the Great White Throne in Glory, for evermore, where pain and sorrow, sick ness and suffering are felt and feared no more. Resolved, that this expression of condclence and sympathy be adopted in regular convention of Cordele Camp No. 106 W. O. W. as sentiments of its entire membership, and that a copy be transmitted to Sovereign J. T. Hill, a copy be spread on the min utes of the Camp and a copy be given to the Cordele Dispatch for publica tion. ['raternally submitted in love, hon or and remebrance, by your committee J. P. HUGHES, J. GORDON JONES, 311 y E. R. OVERBY. Adopted in open session this the 23rd day of November, 1916. J. C. PATTEN, Consul Commanded E. R. OVERBY, Clerk. RESERVE AGENTS SAY BUSINESS GOOD Washington, D. C., Dec. s.—Contin ued favorable business conditions throughout the country, with lal mar kets extremely active, prices still go ing up in many lines and high/levels of production set in others, are noted in .the federal reserve board's bothly tabulation of reports from reserve agents,~made public tonight. Serious car shortage was reported from nearly every section and was said to be the chief impediment to further increase of commercial and industrial activity. Georgia Prosperous. Business activity increaged during November in nearly all lines over the preceding month. Retail trade was glightly disturbed by unreasonable weather. A vast improvement is shown over conditions that prevailed a year ago. It is estimated that 75,000 negroes most of them from farms, have mi grated to the manufacturing cities of the north and the question of farm help may prove a serious one by the time cotton planting season arrives. It is estimated that the cotton crop of Georgia alone will bring $175,000,- 000 and with correspondingly tremend ous sums being received from other gstates in this district all business is expected to rise to a high tide. GAME RESERVATIONS MAIN TAINED BY GOVERNMENT Washington, D. C., Dec. s.—Five big game preseirves and 67 bird reserva tions are maintained by the biologi cal survey, U. S. department of agri culiure. The mammal reservations in clude the Montana bison range, the Wind Cave game preserve in South Dakota, the Niobrara reservation in Nebraska, the Elk Refuge in Wyo ming, and the Sullys Hill game pre serve in North Dakota. The Niobrara reservation was intended as a bird reserve, but has been stocked with big game and is at present maintain ed chiefly for buffalo and elk, ac cording to the annual report of the chief of the biological survey, just is sued. In the first three reservations mentioned the herds of buffalo have shown a notable increase since their establishment a few years ago, says the report, and now include 207 head, or more than a third of all the buf falo which now belong to the govern ment. The elk number about 160 and the antelope 40, making a total of about 400 head of big game. The number of bird reservations was increased during the year by the addition of the Big Lake reservation in Arkansas. Sixty-seven reservations are now maintained primarily for birds. The report urges the import ance ;and necessity of retaining as breading grounds for water fowl and other birds, tracts of land which are not especially valuable for agricul tural purposes. The area of march land necessary for breeding grounds is insignificant, it is said, inco mpar ison with the benefits which will ac crue to the public through the in crease in our supply of game birds. ATLANTA ENFORCING LAW AGAINST VAGRANT CLASS Atlanta, Dec. s.—Chief of Police Mayor declares that any man who is willing to work can get a job:in At lanta today, and consequently there is no excuse for anybody being idle.

The whole world must now once more that whatever diffi ‘ulties and whatever temporary check 3 encountered, Russia and her valiant Ilies will mobilize to the last man nd will sacrifice all their patrimony. “But the war will be carried on to a lecisive end until the German yoke ‘nd German violence have disappear d forever. The power of the enemy 3 slackening and the hour of the desir +1 retriution approcahes even more rapidly. “Nevertheless immense efforts will e required to definitely break the re istance of the enemy, who is using 1l his strength against us. The re iources of Russia are inexhaustible, yut the harmonious and close co-op ration of the whole population for the cc of these resources is a necessary .ccomplishment to the desired end, iamely, the overthrow of our ene nies.” AGENT NAMED TO BETTER METHODS OF MARKETING Athens, Dec. s.—Looking to improve »d methods of marketing of farm pro iucts of Georgia, a market agent has «cen put in the field by co-operative -rrangements of the coliege of agri aulture and the office of markets of lie United States department of ag ‘iculture.
