TAYLOR SUIT IS DECIDED High Tribunal Rules That There Is Xo Authority in Oregon Statutes for Granting Living Ex pense During Suit. Temporary alimony, pending final decree in divorce or marriage annul ment proceedings, cannot be granted legally in Oregon, according to a de cision of the Supreme Court rendered last Tuesday in the case of Charles D. Taylor against Mrs. Minnie H. Taylor. Suit money, or sums sufficient to cover attorneys' fees, witnesses' fees and necessary expenses in traveling In attending the case, and money for the care, custody and maintenance of minor children of the marriage, during the pendency of the suit, are especially provided for by the statute and re ceived the approval of the Supreme Court; but no provision for the sup port of the wife pending the action is found in the statute which provides for alimony, the court held. "We find no statutory authority for allowing the wife alimony for her sup port ... In a suit for divorce, ex cepting when a decree of divorce is granted," Justice Ramsey announces In making the decision for the court. Aft er a decree is granted the court may direct that alimony be paid as has been the practice heretofore. Permanent alimony was not attacked In the case taken to the higher court by an order made by Judge Eakin. in the Clackamas County Circuit Court, directing Mr. Taylor to pay hie wife 38665 alimony for living expenses dur ing the pendency j his suit to annul their marriage. The same day the order of alimony was made the suit was dis missed. The order allowing the tem porary alimony was set aside by the higher court. Law Is Interpreted. In refusing to sanction temporary alimony, the court called attention to the sections of Lord's Oregon laws, which authorize any married woman whose husband is able to support her, but neglects to do so, to maintain a suit against him to obtain a decree, compelling him to contribute to her support and the support of her minor children. These sections authorize an action for nonsupport. and until a final decree is granted a husband is liable for the necessaries for his family. - In a suit brought by the wife for that purpose, courts of equity may compel the husband, in proper cases, to pro vide for her support, but relief of that sort cannot be obtained under section 612, the only section that provides .for the payment of alimony, the court held. The ruling of the Supreme Court re verses the procedure which has been followed in this county, where Circuit Court Judges have granted temporary alimony on proper showing, even though there be no children. The new ruling will have a tendency to hasten all divorce proceedings. Judge Kava naugh said, that a final decree may be made or denied, and permanent ali mony granted accordingly. Judge Mc Ginn said that he was not in sympathy with the granting of temporary ali mony, only in exceptional cases, and believed the ruling of the Supreme Court to be an accurate interpretation of the statutes. First Case Reopened. Tn the suit in which the temporary alimony question is determined Mr. Taylor appealed from an order of Judge Kakin directing him to pay his wife $8665 alimony and $2500 attorney fees. Mr. Taylor first obtained a de fault judgment in his suit to annul his marriage on grounds of false and fraudulent representations, by Mrs. Taylor, as to her character and life. This Judgment was re-opened on mo tion of attorneys for Mrs. Taylor, and nearly a year later the case dismissed. the decree of alimony and attorney lees being made the same day, but im mediately before the suit was dis missed. Charles r. Taylor is a rich Tononah miner, who was married in Portland In 1905 Mrs. Taylor Is living now in San ta Ana, CaL The couple lived together until 1909, but no children were born to them. Suit for annulment of the marriage was brought in 1911, in which year an affidavit in support of a motion for temporary alimony was made. Another such affidavit was filed In May. 19J2. The final order to pay alimony and the dismissal of the suit were made in May. 1913. After considering sections 612 and 513 of the code, the court announced: j. "We find no statutory authority for allowing the wife alimony for her sup port or surgical bills in a suit for di vorce, excepting when a decree of di vorce is granted. The question arises. Is there any authority in this state. independent ef statute, for granting such alimony? Our statute expressly provides that certain stated things may be done in a divorce suit, before a de cree is entered end that certain other things may be done when a decree of .divorce is granted. Can alimony pen dente lite be granted for the support or tne wire witnout statutory au thority?" Lena-thy Opinion Given. After reviewing authorities in point and similar statutes in other states. Justice Ramsey In his opinion contin ues: "There is a conflict in the decisions as to whether the common law. in re lation to divorces and the granting or alimony, is in force In the United states, in the absence of statutes cov ering those subjects. This court -held In Hoffman v. Hoffman that 'the great weight of judicial utterances, however. Is to the effect that all authority 'to award alimony in decreeing dissolution of the marriage must Le found In the statute expressly conferring the right. whicn legislation is, in general, declar atory of the ecclesiastical law.' "We conclude that it is the estab lished rule in this state that all claims to alimony and allowance in suits for divorce are to be determined by our statute on that subject. This statute should be reasonably construed. We believe that the question, whether our courts have authority to allow, pen' dente lite, a wife alimony for her sup port or medical treatment, has never - been determined by this court. In case or two the court has referred to such allowance, but we believe such references were mere dicta. "The question for decision depends upon the meaning of section 512. The only allowances authorized by said section to be made are: (1) 'That the hUBband pay, or secure to be paid, to the clerk of the court such an amoun .of money as may be necessary to en a . 1 ' ZZq m I'.V.iir- " - Z&Jh?'

HERE in the .Portland schools' a movement similar to the experi ment started in Cleveland, O., looking to the preservation of the teeth of children, through demonstra tion of their proper care, has just been started by the Portland Dental Society, under the leadership of Dr. W. C. Adams, its president, co-operating with City Superintendent Alderman Principal Van Tyne, of the Buckman School. So far the demonstrations have been confined to . the Buckman school building. East Twelfth and East Burnslde streets. Dr. Adams or ganized the system in this school through the tooth-brush drills among the children. In view of the enthusiasm- shown by the children, the movement bids fair to develop into a demonstration similar to the "Cleve land Squad." Every afternoon at 1 o'clock Dr. Ad ams takes a roomful of children and puts them through a drill in the use of the tooth brush, after which the teachers carry on the dally drills. Children Line Up at Sink. The little tots, and the older pupils as well, each with his or her Individ ual brush, line up along the sides of a long sink, especially built for the purpose, with jets of running water, and go through the drills with almost military precision. The eagerness with which each of these youngsters goes into the drills seems to show that they themselves realize that the care of their teeth is a good thing. Some time ago the dentists made a systematic examination of the teeth of the Portland pupils and the sub urban schools, disclosing that 90 per able the wife to prosecute or defend the suit, as the case may be'; and (2) tor the care, custody and maintenance of the minor children of the marriage during the pendency of the suit." Provision Blade for Children. 'This section authorizes the court to require the husband to provide funds to enable the wife to prosecute or de fend the suit as the case may be, and for the maintenance of the minor chil dren during the pendency of the suit. but nothing is said in said section con cerning the support of the wife pen dente lite. Section 513 authorizes the court, when a decree of divorce Is granted, inter alia, to grant a decree 'for the recovery of the party in fault such an amount of money, in gross or in installments, as may be just and proper for such party to contribute to the maintenance of the other.' Sec tion 512 expressly authorizes the court to require the husband to provide funds to enable the wife to maintain or defend the suit, and for the main tenance of minor children; but it omits AURORA COUPLE SURPRISED ON 40TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY in, in j i .. MR. AND MRS. M. LARSE.V. Mr. and Mrs. M. Larsen. of Aurora, Or., were the inspiration of a pleasant surprise party given by their friends Sunday, April 19, to honor their 40th wedding anniversary. Mr. and Mrs. Larsen were married at Black River Falls, WIs April 22, 1874. There they made their home until the Fall of 1902, when . they moved to Oregon. Twelve . children were born. The following children were among those present on Sunday: Mrs. E. T. Drews, of Portland; Mrs. C. N. Oathis, of Canby; Misses Theollne, Nora and Cora. They also have 15 grandchildren, only two being present, Dorothy and Lucille Drews. A very dainty luncheon was served, furnished by the friends. Among those present were: Mr. and Mrs. j. Erickson, Mr. and Mrs. O. Wrolstad and family, Mr. and Mrs. C. Knutsen and family, Mrs. Oathis, Mrs. Roness, C. N. Oathis and Mrs. H. Zlegler. Friends and relatives left with the sincere hopes that they may all be present to celebrate their golden wedding 10 years hence. DAILY DENTAL DRILL OP PUPILS. cent had decayed teeth and diseased; or faulty mouths. . Similar examina tions have been in vogue in some of the European countries for several years, and many of our states are fa voring similar inspection.' The Port land dentists, however, seem to be the pioneers in this field of public work on the Pacific Coast. The value and pur pose of these examinations lie in the fact that they furnish the means for in forming the people of necessary facts, which they could not get otherwise, viz, that teeth in proper condition mean food properly cared for in the mouth and the absence of the ill-health attrib utable to poor mastication of food. System Yet Abridged. - Xo arrangements, as yet. have been made for the introduction of the tooth brush drills in the other city schools, but those acquainted with the work now under way at the Buckman build ing will watch the experiment with a great deal of interest. It impresses the observer as one of the best tips for sound health that has been advanced in a long time. Of course, the school drills are not intended to cover the system atic care of the mouth, but simply to give the children the .Ideal method which they should carry home and use there, the daily school drill serving to keep the matter continually in their minds. Dr. W. C. Adams. In speaking of the experiment started at the Buck man building, said: "In this day of learning and science the profession of dentistry is coming to the front with some very interesting demonstrations as to the benefits to be derived from the proper care of chil dren's teeth. The most notable demon stration along these lines was started in Cleveland. Ohio, about five years ago to authorize the court to require the husband to provide for the mantenance of the wife pendente lite. Section 51? expressly provides that by the decree of divorce the court may provide for the recovery of money from the party in fault, for the support of the other party." "We . conclude that the Legislature did not Intend that a husband should be required to provide support for his wife pendente lite and intended that that matter should not be passed upon until a decree of divorce should be granted. The wife could proceed un der sections 7040 and 7041 to obtain support pendente lite, and under our statute, section 7039, Lord's Oregon Laws, the husband is liable for the support of the family. Probably the wife might exonerate him from this li ability by misconduct We hold that the court below exceeded its authority in allowing the defendant JS665 for her support pendente lite, and fo a surgi cal operation. The court below allowed the plaintiff also $2500 as attorneys' fees in said suit." by a public-spirited dentist. Dr. W. G. Ebersole, who has since become known Nation-wide as the father of the oral hygiene movement. His first work was in the nature of an experiment upon a class of 40 public school pupils, of low mental and physical makeup, to deter mine just what could be done for them by putting their teeth in a somewhat normal condition. The results were marvelous and opened the eyes of the dental profession the land over. Poorer Pupils All Needed It. "Most of the children in this class of 40. coming from poorer homes or the slums, had never had any attention paid to their mouths, and it need not be said that all needed it. So the doctors went to work on them, putting their teeth in proper repair, removing ad enoids, straightening up defective teeth and educating the youngsters how prop erly to clean their teeth and care for them. Marked improvements in the school work of these children began to be shown shortly after the dental work was well started, and. within a year, they had practically doubled their men tal efficiency, while physically they were better specimens by far than when the treatment was started. "The results obtained in this remark able test comported exactly with the utterances of an expert on juvenile criminology. Dr. Henry J. Jantusz, who says, after an exhaustive study in pris ons and in schools for the defective, that the child with -poor teeth is in erave danger of becoming a criminal, or at least morally defective. In fact the 20th century dentists tell us that de formatives of the face, hideous teeth, improper nourishment and moral per version are all a sequence of neglected teeth."

Is the assertion of Don C. Prentiss, of Ijmbdenstock & Larson. "I was surprised to see so many or the older men, supposed to be less in favor of the good roads movement than their juniors," said Mr. Prentiss. There were 30 to 40 of them out there with their teams and plows. The way they could mak,e the dirt fly would sname many oi tne excursionists. "The move was inaugurated by the Women's Clvio Club of Metzger. The club was so successful in arousing en thuslasm that the Metzger men have asked permission to become members of the club."

' Mr. Prentiss represented the Port' land Commercial Club at Metzger, Union Avenue Club Declares Approach Chosen Indorsed by Majority of Residents. RAILROAD CALLED "GOAT" Derby-Street Route Asserted Dis advantage to Portland and Clarke County Discrepancies In figures Are Alleged. PORTLAND. Or.. April 24. (To the Interstate Bridge Commission.) The Union-Avenue Development Club begs leave to submit for your consideration what It hopes may be its final appeal in regard to the interstate bridge ap proach. The location already decided upon has been asked for by almost every development club in the city, and your action is Indorsed by an overwhelming majority of the citizens of Portland. We have demonstrated by figures that cannot be disputed that for much more than half of the people of Port land a round trip to Vancouver would be almost two miles longer by way of Derby street than by way of Union avenue. We have demonstrated that for all of the citizens of Clarke County, and for not less than 85 per cent of the entire City of Portland, such a trip by way of Derby street would be more than a mile the' longest over any of the Willamette River bridges and near ly two miles the longest by way of the three south bridges. We have shown that less than 15 per cent of the people of Portland would be better served by the Derby-street route. Ferry Carries 1,000,000. More than 1,000,000 passengers have crossed by way of the Vancouver ferry during the past year. Many millions will cross the bridge in the years to come. It will be little short of an out rage to force upon all this immense army of people the expense of time and trouble Involved in this extra travel. It would be a burdensome tax in com parison with which the saving of over (100,000 by way of Derby street would be a mere pittance. Cheapness of con struction is desirable, but It is a false economy that takes no note of the im mense aggregate burden which this ex cess of one or two miles of travel dally would impose upon the patrons of the bridge. A short and expeditious route for the convenience of both freight and passenger traffic is the vital, tne essen tial and the all-important question in volved in the controversy. Your Commission and the people un derstand that -the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company has been in jected into this discussion simply as a convenient "goat." You are not de ceived by the suggestion that adoption of the Union-avenue route will throttle railway traffic. The demand for equal privileges to all railways and for every privilege that the necessities of travel and traffic require is universal. It is not an issue and it cannot be made an issue in discussing the relative merit of the two approaches. Union Avenue Declared Popular. The decision of your Commission by a vote of 6 to 1 has the overwhelming indorsement of the taxpayers, whose money is building the bridge. The movement that is being promoted for a reconsideration is not a spontaneous movement, and it Is not indorsed by the great body of taxpayers. A mass meeting called in this Interest on the Peninsula was an utter disappoint ment, both in numbers and enthusiasm. A mass meeting at Vancouver de clined, after a prolonged discussion, to take any action in favor of reconsid eration. There are corporate interests of immense wealth that can well af ford to undertake the construction of the Derby-street route at a figure with which the small holders of prop erty along Union avenue cannot hope to compete, but the lnteersts of the immense majority of the people are not to be jeopardized and juggled in this way. The tax levy should build the bridge and the approach. The in terests of the people alone should con trol, and all corporation subsidies should be refused and condemned. The preposterous suggestion that over 85 per cent of the people should be con tent with the present rickety and per ishable wooden approach, whicn re quires constant renewal, while the $500,000 voted by the taxpayers should be devoted to the construction of an approach that is in the interests of less than 15 per cent of the people cannot be seriously considered. Referring to the published report or the engineers employed by the friends of the Derby-street route, we respect fully Bugegst that it is a matter of common knowledge that the profes sional jealousies of doctors and musi cians and civil engineers have not tended to inspire the greatest conn dence or respect for their opinions. As the gentlemen named have sug Rested in their report tnat Air. iar rlngton was apparently biased, we de sire to call the attention oi your non orable body to the fact that they, after the matter has been repeaseaiy ex plained both at publlo meetings and in the press, persist tn aaoing over ,- 000 to the cost of the Union-avenue aDDroach. all of which Is to be paid by abutting property owners and not one cent of which comes out of the bridge fund. Other discrepancies will be discussed when analyzed by the contracting engineers. Contention Is Decried. We desire further to submit that they "have the Interests of our com m unity most at heart" does not com port wtlh their recommendation of an approach that will impose upon nine tenth of the patrons of the bridge an extra burden of from over one mile to nearlv two miles of travel every time they make a round trip over the bridge. While advocating a circuitous route that Is in tne mieresi oi io than 15 per cent of the people, they mure-out that "now is 'the time to de cide whether or not this Is a bridge for all of the people." It certainly is. and, further quibbling should not be permitted to nullify a decision that was so manifestly in the interest of the public , rn reconsideration will call for an other. The people are tired and sick of the contention. To reopen the nueation . would simply add bitterness to an already bitter controversy. The onlv result would be useless recnmi not inn And delay, so transparent is the injustice of It and already so great Is the tension tnat wouia hiuubi tainly result In a resort to the courts or the referendum, and a possible de feat of the whole project. Knowing the supreme advantages of the Union oroach. its friends asked the original bridge committee to give the people of Multnomah County a chance to cast an advisory vote upon the question. They would welcome sucn a vnt at this time if it were possible. There is no public sentiment back of this call for a reconsideration.

We are cutting the price "of bridge work for a good and sufficient reason. But we are not cutting the quality. And when we tell you that we will do for you as good or better bridgework than any other dentist whose work will compare favorably with ours at half his price, we are not boasting. We mean what we say. It Is the truth. Therefore, if you cannot have Alveolar work, on account of the cost, it will most assuredly be to your financial and physical, as well as vanity, inter est to do business with us for bridge work plates, crowns, etc Alveolar Teeth Where Bridgework Is Impossible.
