At least such is the reason assigned or t'.ie severing of martial relations by Juiiisc Thomas P. Graham, for "more thrn twenty years on the Superior .;it bench here and who. despite his more than state-wide reputation as the "S.reat reconciler," has granted thousands of divorces. And as a proper remedy for the pascr.t-rl(iy divorce evil Judge Graham s jpcrests honesty between husband and wife regarding: every matter of n-.ut-u.11 interest to them. "Hack of the majority of divor.-c suits riled here and it must be true f other cities is deceit by either the hu.:,):-n! or wife." said the jurist.

"Hut back of it all is the deceit practised by the husband during the courtship and maintained through the short married life. "There are cases also where the wife is guilty of deception.
