DNORGE COURTS GET HOLIDAY IN ARCADIA, REPORT “Till Death Do Us Part” Tradition Lives in the Dominion » expe OTTAWA, Ont., Aug 2.—Marriages in Canada are successful, and families still are loyal to the “till death do us part” tradition. Divorces granted in thé Dominion numbered only 644 in 1992, or two-thirds of one per cent of all the marriages contracted, ac- cording to a report just compiled by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. Baged on population, the report showg, divorces numbered seven to porrers 100,000 pers Divorces in the United States, according to offi- clal figures for the last year on rec- ord, numbered 112 to every 100,000 people. : “The 1922 figures,” says the report, “probably indicate that the wave of divorce due to the war has reached its highest point and is now on the decline. Total decrees granted last year shpwed a reduction of four com- pared with 1921. The remarkably low per cent of divorces shows the sta bility’of Canadian homes and institu- tions.

Four Inquiries Every Minute at Postal Windows Some idea of the great volume of the great volume of business hand- led daily at the general delivery windows of the Casper postoffice is found in a recent count made by employes which shows an average of four every minute of the day. Last Friday inquiries were made by 2,277 patrons of the office and on Saturday the number jumped to 2,492 inquiries. An inquiry as a rule means that the clerk must turn to the boxes and look through at least one packet of letters in addition to handing out second class mail. . THREE WOMEN ARRESTED BY POLICE ON SAND BAR ‘Three women, two of which were charged with conducting houses of {ll fame and the third charged with being an inmate of such a house, were arrested by the police department last night. Bonds of $100 were re- quired in each case. The women were Mary Chaviz, Edna Wilson and Anna Russell, -When we say the Hupmobile is the best car of its class in the world, we are simply echo: the conviction o the thousands of les who own it.

D.'s shook and trembled in anticlpa- tion of a premature hibernation. Good wool blankets and big soft comforts found themselves hauled from their all-summer siesta on the shelves and heaped on the beds. Little Henry had to be primed, kicked over a couple of times, and cused considerably before coming to life. If winter comes—yes, we have no bananas—what's the matter with the weather? It is probable that autumn’s ad- vance agent breezed down to Cas-- per from Butte, Mont., where he is reported to have posted such a set- back to the mercury that only eight degrees stood in the way of frozen milk bottles. He was not so harsh down here though he gave the ice- men a good scare and the coal dealers a moment of joy. Just what to expect of the weather is hard to say.
