DIVORCE SUIT FOR EACH FOUR LICENSES HERE

Average for Wayne County is Far Above That for United States. There has been an average of one divorce granted to every four marriage licenses taken out In Wayne county in the last three years. This is far above the average for the United States, as only about one marriage out of nine ended in divorce in the country during the three years. In 1916, there were only 112 divorces to every 1,050 marriages, the country over. ' Divorce pleas Hied for the three years averaged almost one-third of the licenses filed, many of them, of course, being cancelled or denied. Twelve hundred and eight licenses were granted during the three years against 310 divorces. Of the causes recognized by the Indiana laws as grounds for divorce, abandonment was pleaded in 79 cases, adultry in 23, cruel treatment in 115, drunkenness in 28 and failure to provided. 48. Both divorces and marriage licenses decreased during 1918, because of the war, 359 licenses being granted and 8i divorces occurring. A striking feature wa3 that wives secured only 35 divorces against 51 by husbands during the last year, while in 1917 the proportion was 89 by wives again3t 37 by husbands.

ON WAY HOME FROM FRANCE.

Sixteen Chicago residents and twelve from Indianapolis registered at Richmond hotels Thursday. W. II. Huntley stopped over here on his way from France to his home in Chicago.

By GRACE E. HADLEY (County Home Demonstration Agent) Now that housecleanlng season Is at hand, many housewives are looking forward to redecorating their homes. It isn't always the woman who spends the greatest sum on her house who has the most attractive one, nor is it the woman who can have everything new that deserves the moat credit, but the woman who reads, thinks, and plan3 is the woman who spends to the best advantage and has the most restful home. The walls of a room should serve for a background of furniture, pictures and people; therefore the plain or small figured paper in an average Kized room, is most satisfactory. A room with many openings, namely doors and windows, should not have large figured paper. A not too prominent stripe often adds to the height of a low ceiling room. The lighting of a room should always be taken into consideration when selecting wall paper. A room with a north exposure, or one in which the windows are shaded by a porch should have a warm brown, or even a strawcolored paper to give the appearance of warmth as well as make the room lighter. Woodwork should be taken into consideration too, in selecting paper. A dark, dingy woodwork will often cause such a striking contrast that the effect will not be pleasing. Brilliant greens, blues and reds in paper grow iresome as well as fail to furnish a fitting background. Beautiful greys in combination with a little soft rose and indistinct gold in the form of an all over conventionalized design, are very artistic and pleasing. Small all over floral designs for bed

rooms are most attractive as well as quite helpful in carrying out a color scheme. Remember, in buying wall paper, that it is something you will be associated with 3P5 days in the year. Thereforp, select intelligently don't wait until the last minute, then rush down town when you are too tired to think.

CHARTER FOR LOCAL BOY SCOUTS PLANNED ' The next few weeks will see the official recognition of Richmond Boy Scout troops, under the leadership of Secretary Orville Brunson, who has charge of the movements in Richmond. . Three or four troops are ready to apply for their charters and become official Boy Scout troops of the national . organization known as the Boy Scouts of America. Because very few Richmond men know the true value and work of the Boy Scout organization, including himself, Mr. Brunson has obtained the service of Howard Vance of Indianapolis, to come to Richmond every Tuesday to instruct the Richmond scoutmasters. These meetings will not only be open to scoutmasters, but also to members of tho scout comhlttees, and any one interested in the work. They will start next Tuesday. Ten Richmond churches are trying to organize troops of Boy Scouts. Other churches are expected to take up the work later. The Grace Methodist church probably will be the first Richmond church to send for a charter at this time. Before this time several churches had formed individuals troops which for the most part have become inactive. At one time there were three registered troops in Richmond. Charles Haile -was scoutmaster of a troop for some time. Louis Kinley organized a troop at the First English Lutheran church, and Samuel S. VIgran, present scoutmaster, organized Troop 3, the only one to continue for any length of time. Eefore the organization of these troops, the First Methodist church, through Paul A. Beckett, organized the first registered troop reported in Richmond. About the same time the St. Paul Lutheran organized

a troop.
