A. Wake, tho snrgeon, and making financial provision for her from tho doctor's income. Though the evidence showed that tho Ulnfccs, living in adjoining house, had not entered one anoth er's homes since 1910, tho reason for their estrangement was not inndo clear. No reference was made during the hairing to Mrs. Clarenco II. Mne kay, whom Mrs. Hlnkc sued some time ago for $1,000,000, charging her with alienating Dr. Blake's af fections. Tho Mnckav suit wns dropped without explanation. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Dec. 23.

DIVORCE C1E8EJ0PJ01IL BfHIS'COUNMIN THE CARABAO PUESTDEN'P WILSON'S roimmund of tho officers of " the Caralmo society was well merited. Tito jokes and jibes upon their eonuiinndiug officer, tho of fort to bring into ridicule and disrepute policies they aro sworn to up hold, was not only a broach of discipline, but extremely disgraceful. The affair cannot be compared to the Christinas jinks indulged in bv such organizations as the Gridiron club, or by our owip university club, as such organizations have no official connection with their victims, and arc at liberty to satirize the world if they choose. There can be no com parison. -Ifrlie county clerk, sheriff, district attorney and mem bers of the jury panel indulged in a jinks ridiculing and belittling Judge Calkins and satirizing bis policy in cases ou trial before the court, the offense would be similar to that Of tlie 'Carabao society "Would reprimand place the judge in the ,Vold woman" class? s' iTerc is tlVe'federargoverniuent trying to give the Kili nnos a square deal and the representatives of the army and navy singing songs to damn them. The efforts of the administration to let the Mexicans settle their own trou les and prevent a bloody and needless war are ridiculed as "piffle'' by the administrator's sworn supporters. A joke is a joke, but it is no joke for oflicials to un patriotically belittle their chief. As President Wilson well says: "What aro we to think ot officers of the army and navy who regard II ns 'fun to bring their official superior Into ridicule ami policies of the govern ment they aro sworn to servlo with uuqucstlonltiK loyalty Into contempt' If this Is their Idea of fun, what Is their Ufa of duty? If they do not hold loyalty ab'ovo all silly effervescence of childish wit. what about their pro fession do they hold sacred? ""My purpose in administering this reprimand Is to recall the men re sponsible for this lowering ot the standard to their Ideals, to remind them of the high conscience with which they ought to put duty above personal Indulgence nnd to think of themselves ns responsible men nnd as trusted soldiers, even while amusing themselves ns dlners-out." IT ALL I T is evident that members of the city administration believe in the right of petition when their own inter ests arc concerned- even though they deny to the people they represent such right. The petition requesting a change in the postoffico site is headed by Mahlon Purdin, mayor of Medferd: J. T. Sunnnerville, president of the city ceuncil: George. W. Porter, city councilman, and J. "W. Mitchell, city council mana majority of the administration, who have used their official positions to lend the petition the appearance of official protest. Their right to sign as individuals is unquestioned thoir use of their positions is in question able taste, as they are representatives of all the people not of a faction. The petition for tliG appointment of C. E. Gates -as mayor presented the council was promptly thrown into the waste basket. Advantage, of a technicaiitv was taken to prevent the people voting upon the petition taking off salaries from the mayor and council. It will be interesting to council upon the recall petitions when filed. If techni cality can prevent, it is dollars to doughnuts the council will prevent a vote upon thcSc petitions. The city administration evidently believes in the right of petition only when their own interests arc affected favorably thereby. : 'Relation of Hatch to Observations of the development of whlto Leghorn p.ulets at tho poultry plant ot the Washington experiment station, reveal certain suggestive facts relative to the, rate at which the birds reach maturity and begin to lay.

REPRIMAND DEPENDS note the action taken bvthc- Egg Laying Period Tho majority ot tho hens that con tinued to lay through July, August, and into September had been hatched early tho prececdlng year, tho ob vious reason being that tho early hatched chickens developed hotter, and camo into laying in n more vig orous condition than did the late hatches. Tho heavy breeds laid fewer oggB during the setting nnd hatching-season than did tho Leghorns, being raoro "broody" than were tho Leg horns, and their laying being Inter rupted by trying to set.

Mary Rouillct is tho whole faculty for this school for household mis tresses, In conjunction with the misfross' school there is also mi ed ucational institution to furnish ele mentary nnd advanced instruction for girls. Though this school has only been established two months, it ulremly has twenty pupils. They nro tnught cooking, servinu, sewing, "movement economy" nnd scientific sweeping. Mary Itouillot is tho en tire faculty of this school, too, Briefly, Miss Houillot is trying to push tho business of housekeeping into its proper place, -with olhor lines of business, with reference to specialization and efficiency. Sho hopes nnd says sho will put .the housemaid on n social nnd business love! with other business and pro fessional women. Hacking her up in her work is tho Woman's Outdoor leagiin of Snu Francisco, with n MEDFORD,, OKfiaON' membership which rcndi like tho no clnl blue book of the olty. Mary Houillot would rather talk diatetios, proteins and orfiolonl ougineeiing than duneiug mid week-end pintle.
