(I'll $r)Hp HHIl! iW r 3 In a decree signed yesterday by Cir cuit Judge Tucker, Mrs. Evalyn Keasey Is granted an absolute divorce from Dorr E. Keasey, prominent Portland realtor, the court holding that her charges of cruelty and infidelity, as alleged In her cross-complaint, should entitle her to a divorce. Mr. Keasey originally started suit on grounds of desertion. In the findings as signed by Judge Tucker it is held that Keasey's asso ciation with other women was such as to entitle Mrs. Keasey to legal relief. It is set forth that Mr. Keasey was more frequently in the company of other women than with his wife; that he maintained a home for at least one other woman and-that his associa tions with women were such as to cause common talk among his em ployes as well as his business asso ciates. - Maiden ame Restored, The decree allows Mrs. Keasey to resume her maiden name of Evalyn Carter. The Keaseys were married at Toledo, Or., in 1909, but have lived in Portland for the greater part of their married life. The suit was heard be fore Judge Tucker several weeks ago and was taken under advisement. It was said that property rights were not finally settled until a few days ago. Five unhappy wives yesterday started suit for divorce on grounds of cruelty and desertion. Mary Alice Counterman charges that Wilford Counterman, to whom she was married in 1909, de serted her last year. She wants her maiden name of Mary Jackson restored to her.

This picture Is heralded as one of the greatest dramas ever seen on the Bcreen. At the Broadway Theater, New York, it scored tremendously. Of Mitchell Lewis' acting, in playing Poleon Doret, the strongest character of the plot, the Dramatic Mirror said. "There were bursts of applause every time Mitchell Lewis terminated a scene.
