This agreement should be lived up to. Questions of marriage and divorce are so essen- tially personal that the evil effects of our diverse laws regarding (hem are not gencrally understood.

The Liberals and the Radicals object. Tloyd-George recently de- nounced the proposal as “a mere device to put a more effective weapon in the hands of the wealthy | classe,” This phase of the conflict hetween the progressives and the con- servatives in Great Britain is the more interesting because in this coun- try the opposing parties hold contrary positions. “Cheer Up, Cuthbert!” What's the Use of Being Blue?
