Mrs. McCulloch was one of the prin- cipal speakers. She denounced the "rag-time song writers" of today for aiding in the increase of the divorce cases of the present age. She asked for one moral standard for both sexes, saying that it would be a great step in eliminating the divorce evil. Mrs. McCulloch did not become en- thusiastic over the proposed law mak- ing the state's attorney a party to di- vorce proceedings. Her resson for this was thst it would increase the costs of a divorce decree and that in many cases divorces were necessary. ~m. &^t;;' .,.......... .--, ji/r<,A.prit-'«& Pi lent, Business-like mmtim&mt.: mm
