A Favorite Resort. Six pleasant banquets held within a week at Allen's Althea Gardens, at Seven-mile road and Grand River avenue testify to the popularity of the place.

Organizations that banqueted were West Side Educational Club and La- dies' Auxiliary of Detroit, of which Mrs. Leo Davis is president, whose affair was attended by 162 people; Sweetest Heart of Mary church, in charge of Father James C. I'lagens, attended by 50 members; Northland Golf Club, whose course is on the Seven-mile road, west of the Althea Gardens, more than 200 being present, including prominent people from De- troit and Redford; Burroughs Adding Machine Co. banquet, attended by 50; 100 attended the banquet of the Met- ropolitan Insurance Company sales- men, addresses being delivered by Frank Wardell, C. Morris and other New York speakers. Approximately 200 attended the banquet of the B. E. Taylor salesmen's organization. Allen's Althea Gardens has gained an enviable reputation for such af- fairs while under the management and ownership of John J. Allen. The place is one of the finest and busiest resorts in and about Detroit. THE MISER AND THE FISHER. MAN. • By Ben Zeeb (1785). a A miser once into river fell— Hard by a boatman heard his fren- zied yell. Ile swiftly ran and cried "Give Me your hand, And I shall bring you safely back to land." "Give," moaned the miser, "when I've n'er before Given. No—never!" lie was seen no more. L Rabbi Says Institution Has Been Degraded Into Corn- mercial Standards. NEW YORK. — Many marriages are entered into today with "a men- tal reservation" that it is to be "a trial marriage," according to the Rev. Dr. Joseph Silverman, rabbi- emeritus of Temple Emanu-El, Fifth Dr. avenue and Forty-third street. Silverman made this declaration in a sermon on "The Scandal of Di- vorce." Ile said he knew from his experiences as a rabbi that the di- vorce scandal was largely the result of marriage fur mercenary reasons, and that he "could name names." 11r. Silverman gave as the remedy that marriage should again become what it always should be—a roman- tic affair. The only real basis for marriage is love, he said. "Civilization has created a desire for three things—wealth, power and pleasure," said the rabbi. "Ask any human tieing if that is not the goal for which he is striving, if that is not the aim of all his schemes. The end of all human effort is wealth, power and pleasure. "The Marriage Market." "Because this has become a sov- ereign fact that will not down, mar- riage has become in a great many cases a commercial institution. There is a jest about 'the marriage mar- ket.' A jest is the result of a real condition. There is today, although perhaps unofficially, a matrimonial market. It is not listed on the stock exchange, but it exists in society. "There are fathers and mothers, sometimes unconsciously, but often consciously, who prostitute marriage for commercial ends. They use this most sacred institution fur the means of obtaining more wealth, more pow- er and more pleasure. They talk to their daughters and their sons, cau- tioning them that they should con- tract 'a satisfactory marriage.' They tell their offspring that there are many marriages which are 'not de- sirable from a practical standpoint.' They say to their daughters that such and such a young man 'is powerfully situated in the mercantile world,' or to their sons that such and such a young woman 'has the prospect of becoming an heiress.' And fathers and mothers are resorting even to tricks which are known in society. They are thus bringing marriage down to the common basis of a busi- ness bargain and eliminating ro- mance completely. Not Surprised at Divorce. "I am not surprised at the divorce scandals. The divorce scandal of to- day is the result of mercenary mar- riage, marriages which have been consummated to attain more social prestige and power. And as soon as disappointment arises and the money collapses the result is war in the home. "Husbands and wives make charges and counter-charges. But the real basis is the desire to get rid of an unsatisfactory bargain in order to order to contract another and better matrimonial bargain. "I know this from my experience as a rabbi, and I could name names. This makes of marriage a mockery and shame. Marriage "a Spiritual Coven•nt." "Nlarriage is a spiritual covenant, and as a result of this spiritual cov- enant marriage assumes spiritual comradeship, mutual understanding, mutual sympathy, a deep, abiding concern in one another's happiness. This spiritual comradeship means the elimination of selfishness, of greed, of avarice, of lust, of passion. It does nut the elimination of per- sonality, but the preservation of per- sonality, but the preservation of in- dividuality. Only with self-respect can you have respect for others. In true marriage there is an understand- ing which leads to co-operation in the things of most common interest. "Our modern governments seek to preserve the home, which is the basis of society. Any one who undertakes to wreck a home sins against society. "Divorce today is too easy. It can be obtained by anybody who desires it if they will resort to trickery to get it. Any one who goes about to try and wreck a home should be put in prison. There should be a uni- form law that the one who is a party to a divorce transaction cannot go back to society. We put all other kinds of criminals behind prison bars and let the social criminal go free." it 91 ' •1 1\ 100ir t '' _ .- .1. 4.7 .70/1Z4 :.atzlzzu,' Pure food, fresh air, sunshine and care makes the happy, contented, healthy baby.
