I nnd many instances where homes are «-ecked and husbands are caused to fall simply because wives are undo ,nestic—have absolutely no knowledge of the art of cooking nor the proper manner of conducting a home. Vie should have a rigid law. to disqualify Mi women for marriage who have had domestic training. This is the solu tion of the divorce evil. Making this declaration. Adult Pro bation Officer Coogler today announced he intended to extend the probation .vstem to women. Any wife, he as sert' who is found Incompetent, or w .h O se misconduct or lack of domestic ity has provoked her husband to err, will be placed on probation and will be required to comply with the rules and regulations of the system the same as the husband. ■There are many women who need to h r on probation and under the care of the -aw just as much or more than do their husbands,” said Officer Coogler. ■Of course, many men are naturally mean and mistreat their wives without cause but, on the other hand, numbers and numbers of husbands, who are good fellows at heart and are hard working men. are driven to the bad through the incessant nagging of un worth.' wives and the lack of homelike conditions." Leads in Home-Wrecking. The "undomestic wife” is charged by Offici t’oogle: as the greatest matri monial evil of the day. in his labors to redeem wrecked homes, he says, he finds that the great majority of such homes are steered on the rocks by this type nf woman. So many of our modern wives have never had any domestic training.” said the officer. "Thousands of them begin working in stores and factories just as soon as they are old enough to leave home, and then when they get married they are like a ship lost at sea. They know nothing about cooking, are whol ly ignorant as to how to keep house, and finally awake to the sad realiza tion that they are totally incompetent as a wife. It doesn’t take a guesser to see the result. The hom’e Is soon dashed on the rocks and the husband goes to the bad. The next step is po lice court —the wife tells a pitiful story and the husband is placed on probation and for- cd to contribute to her support. Urges Law to Disqualify Unfit. It is not always the woman who has worked out. either, who is undomestic. Their are hundreds of girls who spend their time in idleness about the home and in the streets, and never stop run ning about long enough to take a little home training. The matrimonial re sult is just as bad in this case. Os course, if the husband is wealthy enough to employ servants —but then that’s another story. All husbands are n"t abb to indulge in this luxury. 1' "m my extensive experience among wrecked homes, I have come to ’ ■ conclusion that we must take dras tic steps to improve home conditions. 1 m heartily in favor of a law that " ' '■ - ompletoly disqualify a woman for marriage who has not been fitted to properly care for a home and who is noi willing tn stay in the home and look after it after she gets it. This -ame aw should also apply to men. disqualifying any' man who has no po “ i "n and is not financially' able to suppoit a wife properly. lam satisfied that until we adopt a law like this th; for the divorce mills and trie pro !l 'ion court will continue to increase '•"h alarming rapidity.” 175 SUNDAY SCHOOLS TO OBSERVE “WHITE PLAGUE DAY” SUNDAY Tuberculosis Prevention day" will I- observed next Sunday in 176 ■ '"lurches and Sunday schools of At lanta.

Representative Allen made a fine speech on the floor of the house the other day, in which he went far out of his way to say nice and complimentary things about the bill which seeks lo make women eligible to practice law in Georgia. The house was not considering that bill at the time—it was discussing the county prosecuting attorney bill—but Representative Allen didn’t care a hoot about that. The opening to unload an elegant line of talk about the fair sex evidently was too promising for a wise and circumspect legislator like Repre sentative Allen to overlook. Enter, the Villain! So Allen cut right into the argu ment, and before he resurped his seat he had clothed lovely femininity in all the colors of the rainbow, set a diadem of glittering things upon her alabaster brow, beckoned her right up to the seats of the mighty, and handed her a diploma and a certificate of sweetness guaranteed under all the pure food and drug laws ever dreamed of. Then the villain came upon the scene, cleverly disguised as a newspaper re porter. The villain seized upon Repre sentative Allen's kind words and mean ly, designedly, and with malice afore thought, set them down in his pa per-r-r that afternoon as the words of Representative Massengale, of bar ren! Then, exit villain, gibbering in ghoulish glee! MRS. E. G. BALLENGER DEAD OF TYPHOID AT PRIVATE SANITARIUM Mrs. E. G. Ballenger, wife of Dr. E. G. Ballenger, of .Myrtle and Third streets, a popular and beloved matron, died of typhoid fever today at a pri vate sanitarium. She had been ill for about six weeks. Mrs. Ballenger, prior to her mar riage, was Miss Gorman, of Baltimore, a niece of Senator Gorman. Her ill ness came upon her while she was tak ing a recent trip to Atlantic Beach, b'la. It assumed no alarming propor tions until recently, however, and then the end came quite quickly. Mrs Ballenger, socially and other wise. drew to her a large coterie of devoted friends. She is survived by her husband, two small children, her fa ther and several other relatives in Bal timore. No funeral arrangements have yet been made. ATLANTA CHURCH CALLS TENNESSEE MINISTER Rev.

JULY 18. 1912. Massengale isn’t for the bill permit ting women to practice law in Georgia, the gentle reader will understand. Be sides, Massengale gets a wire from home asking him how about all that airy persiflage he had been handing out concerning the fair sex. and the idea of a man of his age talking that way, anyway! So Massengale got up in the house to a question of personal privilege, and read a good-natured but pos-i-tive riot act to ye villain (still cleverly disguised as a reporter) and said he d'idn't say all that about the women, although he didn't deny that much of it might be true and O. K. The "Some" Wrath of Allen. Then Allen came down front, right in the full glare of the footlights, and said that, despite the villain's false whiskers and green goggles, he was dis-cov-ered, and curses be upon him also, for since the report went abroad that it was Massengale and not Allen who handed out all that elegant line of talk anent siveet femininity, Massen gale had been sent seven large bou quets, nine boxes of candy, twelve "mash notes.” three fascinating pho tographs. and eleven scarf pins! Wherefore. Allen declared that ther’ isn’t any use trying to put things over when villains cleverly disguised as newspaper reporters are rushing around seeking whom they mlghj devour and bent upon handing the proceeds of hon est legislators’ pet bets to people not entitled to the same. Massengale sat right tight in his seat, and didn't rise to any more poin s of order. Somethin- seemed to tickle him mightily, too, as he contemplated the ire and deep djsgust of Allen, of Upson.
