Divorce is not only an evil.| it is a menace to civilization. It is rapidly wrecking the most sacred in- stitution of the country—the home. The most civilizing and upbuilding | force for good citizenship we have. | The place from whch most of the | good emanates and little of the bad. The great safety-valve of American society. Directly traceable to the wreck- ing of the home are many of the ils of the day. The licens? of the people, the floating of the law, the! ruction of ideals, the spurning ef religion, lack of interest in the churches. With the restraints, safe- guards and responsibilities gone the tendency is altogether in the oppo- site direction from the wholesome moral influences inculcated in the | home. | When society reaches the point!
