At lei Miss Tiera Farrow, Kansas City’s first woman Divorce Proctor, believes that none of the scarecrows I have enumerated has half so much to do ot board the false, romantic ideals of husbands and wives, “Because girls,dream of movie heroes with wavy hair and carressing eyes as mates,” said Miss Farrow, “they decide marriage is a failure when their plumber or carpenter husbands prove commonplace. his later manner, have done 4s to remove the false halo from the Jirst marriage and wreathe it around the head of the second.

BOAR Commissioner Hodge Has Tilt With Shonts Counsel at “L"” Gate Hearing. A tllt occurred between Public Service Commissioner Henry W. Hodge and Arthur G. Peacock, of counsel for the Interborough, to-day during a hearing called to do away with the present antiquated style of elevated train gates, Commissioner Hodge described the gates as inadequate and “antedating the Jay Gould management of the L lines,” and charged that the Inter- boro's pirnetpal officers were trying to “stall off the hearing.” When the question’ of Installing up-to-date gates was taken up with President Shonts of the Interboro, Commissioner Hodge explained, Mr, Shonts instructed George Keegan, assistant to the vice president and general manager of the Interboro, to attend to-day’s hearing with draw- Ings of up-to-date gates, Instead, Mr. Peacock appeared and requested an adjournment of the hearin Conimenting on Mr, Keegan's ab- sence, Commissioner Hodge said: ‘I think this is very poor treatment of the commission. What is the use of my telling the principal officers of your company just what is wanted and then have them send you over here to try to stall the hearing off?” “The officers of my company never told me to stall anything off,” re- torted Peacock. He added that It was his understanding that a change in the style of gates would mean wid ening of all car platforms and would therefore entail an expense of $6,- 000,000 “{ did not say anything about ex- tending platforms,” said Mr. Hod \"1 did say we wanted a@ decent gate on these elevated cars, and the Pr ident of your road knows {t and Mr. Keegan Knows It as well. It ts ridic- ulous for them to let you come over here with such information as you have." The Interborough was thereupon given notice to produce Mr. Keegan |with his gate designs, Earlier in the day experts testified that loading and unloading of cars would be greatly facilitated by the installation of up-to-date gates and that the change would cost only $70,000.
