New York, Juno 9. Much maligned
as is New York about its divorces end
general disregard for the sccrediic-'s
of matrimony, facts and figures show
that the metropolis is really the safest
American city for connubial bliss. !)o
spito the popular ideas about the wick
edness of (iotham, the records show
that divorce is not the fearsome .nen
nee to Father Knickerbocker's house
hold as is tho general belief. For in
stance, St. Louis and Cincinnati both
are more easy going in tho matter of
dissolving the marriage tie, and St.
Louis holds the country's palm for its
quick divorce batting average.
New York's goodness, whero divorce
is concerned, is proved by official rec
ords of the courts of jurisdiction in
the four counties embraced by the mu
nicipality of Greater New York. It
!b a record to which tho citizens may
point with pride and a record wihcL
other cities of tho first class might
view with alarm in making a sociologi
cal self-examination.
In the four counties of New York,
in the year 1012, there were granted
1782 divorces, as against 52,282 mar
riages, about one knot untied to every
twenty-nine marriages. Were it not
for Brooklyn 's numerous lapses fron
the domestic ideal, the city's record
would bo much bettor. Last year, in
that borough, there were granted 712
divorces and the number of marriages
was 14,587.
In New York county, eompriiing
Manhattan and the Bronx, which prop
erly Ts Now York City, there wero 101.)
divorces and 31,780 marriages, or about
one divorce to thirty-one marriages.
In contrast to this record for a city
of upwards of 5,000,000 population, Cin
cinnati and St. Louis, much smaller,
aro running a closo race for high mark
in the divorce percentage column. In
St. Louis last yenr 1143 divoreo suits
were filed and 1101 granted, an aver
age of ono divorce to every six mar
riages. Cincinnati untied flit mar
riages in 117.1 suits filed, an average
of ono divorce to every six nmrruges.
All of which only goes to show that
while Clotlinin's police record may be
unsavory, its general attitude toward
the mnrringe tie is much more respect
ful on the general average than the
attitude of St. Louis and Cineinnnti, so
give the devil his due.
shooting at pictures of animals and
other objects. At the crack of the
gun, the film automatically stopped
long enough for the shooter to see
where he hit the mark. The affair was
such a success that "hunting parties"
will be organized as a summer diver
sion in tho Big Town.
A few Ainericnn boys who can sing
will have nn enviable existence when
a boys' school and dormitory now be
ing built in connection with the Cathe
dral of St. John the Divine is com
pleted. There the boys who will sing
in the big cathedral choir will be
housed and trained. Not only will their
voices be looked after, but their gen-
einl education as well will be paid for
by the church. Learned masters will
instruct them, motherly women will
look after their bodily welfare, musi
cians train them and athletic instruc
tors attend to their physical develop
ment. The choir boys of St. John the Pi
vine will be taken care of in much the
same manner that Grace church, down
town, looks after its youthful singers.
These boys, when their parents agree
to give their services to the church
choir, are turned over bodily until such
time as their voices change, and they
are no longer useful to the choir.
While they are members of the choir,
the boys have all the advantages of
the highest grade boarding school. It
costs them nothing and they get no
pay for singing. They trade their boy
ish voices In return for an excellent
education. They have a dormitory fur
nislled with every comfort, shower
baths, a gymnasium, library and all
that. Their health is looked after by
matrons and athletic instructors. Their
meals are cooked by special chefs, and
masters of high degree teach them
what they would get in only the best
prepntory academies of the country.
But they belong to the church. Their
parents turned them over to the church
authorities and see them no more, ox-
opting for several weeks in the hot
summer months, until their voices begin
to change. Then they sre sent home.
Hut they have their education and the
benefit of strict disciplinary training
to show their sojourn in New York.
In the choir of (Irnoo church there are
now twenty six boys, many of them
from states far from New York. Ono
i. from California. The church has a
waiting list of inure than 200 boys
whose parents are anxious to have them
educated in return for their singing.

In Indianapolis an ordinance requires
woman to wear undergarments if they

question as to the age when going bare

will find few men endorsing their
ideas.
