Following is to duty in general, but in particular a copy of the citation: It was from I^nts Grange held their regular monthly meeting last Saturday at Grange hall, with an extra good at tendance. Third and fourth degree work was conferred upon six candi dates in the forenoon. After the usual sumptuous grange dinner the afternoon program opened with a piano solo by Louise Kreuder, who won much applause. Judge Gatens then spoke on the “Revolt of Wom en” ami th«- divorce question, which was discussed at some length. He stated that the records of his court showed that 55 divorce decrees had been awarded in 10 days, of which ■e won by women and 16 by Commonest of all complaints heard in the courtroom during the hearing of the 55 cases was the af firmation of the parties that they were unsuited to each other. This plea was advanced in no jess than 35 cases. Judge Gatens said that mis-mating is by far the leading cause of di vorce and that an examination of the records fail to show a true percent age of just how many domestic trag edies occur through it. He states that in many cases the parties set up other reasons which suffice for issuing the decree and do not allege the incompatibility between them when that is primarily responsible. Another factor that seems to have had a disastrous effect on the mar riage relation is employment by the woman after her marriage. In 37 of the 55 cases the wife worked be fore marriage and in 30 she con tinued her ««ccupation after the cere mony and before there was any sep aration from her husband. Acquaintanceship of less than a month’s duration resulted in mar riage in seven instances and in 21 cases the couples knew each other for not longer than six months. Thir teen of the parties lived together less than six months and 21 less than a year. Fifteen husbands were charged with being unduly attracted by other women, whereas only 10 wives were said to have sought companionship of men outside their home. Cruelty was given as the grounds for di- V< orce in 38 actions and desertion in 16. Twenty-eight of the litigants were securing a divorce for a second time and of these 17 were wopien and 11 were men. Following Judge Gatens’ address a VI iolin solo was given by Gladys Gil bert which was well received. W. H. Dufur spoke on social jus tice for workers, followed by a violin solo by Herbert SommerfeldL Interesting remarks were made by Mrs. McCormack, of Lane county Po mona Grange.
