of Cheney, Wash., will speak in
the interests of the Pilgrim Me

Dr. William Baird, in charge of
the Oregon division of t’..e un
dertaking, spoke at a dinner al

London has been the center of some
remarkable legal situations, but It la
safe to declare that none of these
has been more picturesque or more In
credible than the recent divorce suit
of a couple who Uved In complete
conjugal silence for four years. At
the eud of that period the lady lu
question decided that she had had
enough of it. Her petition was dis
missed, but to date there has been no
reconciliation.
An attentive public
can now aettle down to the prolonged
delight of waiting for one of them

It la, of course, true that the priv-
liege of wearing military titles by
courtesy has been abused by some
and made ridiculous by others. That
was the case after the Civil war, and
It will happen again in the years to
come, while the world war Is turning
from an actuality Into history. The
possibility—even
ths
certainty—of
this Is no reason for abandoning a
practice which, honestly and legiti
mately followed, gives an entirely in
nocent satisfaction to a great number
of good people and works no real
harm to anybody. If, as time goes
on, a few colonels blossom out Into
generals, and more captains and ma
jors into colonels, through their own
forgetfulness or the generosity of
neighbors, a kindly smile is about all
the Inaccuracy deserves in the way of
comment. A military title that was
well earned and bravely borne is a
thing of glory—a thing to be valued
In the future as It always has been
tn the past by all patriotic citizens.
That jewels are sometimes stolen does
not decrease their value—It Is only
another proof of value.
