interesting talk on “Youth and the

years of experience in dealing with
youth both in the church and in
the Y. W. C. A. was ably equipped
to handle her subject. She is a de-
cided optimist and a great believer
in youth. In her talk she brought
out the thought that there has been
“no generation to which the young-
er is not the degeneration,” and
that the conditions of our times

have enormously emphasized this
situation and the problems of youth.
Among the illustrations of this she
mentioned the speed and excite-
ment of life, greatly changed posi-
tion of women, and the life of the
young centered less in the home.
In conclusion Mrs. Porter stated
that leadership must have “creative
faith” toward youth; must be hon-
est and undogmatic—open minded
in the discussion of modern ques-
tions; must train toward the inner
safeguards for character and the
home; must challenge youth to
morally heroic service.
For the social hour which follow-
ed Mrs. A. B. Phillips arranged an
interesting program with musical
selections by Mrs. G. Wheaton and
Miss Mae Vance Wren. Delightful
refreshments were served by the
Baptist Ladies, assisted by members

Oath therefor having been made
as required by law, you are hereby
commanded that, by making publi-
cation of this Citation in some
newspaper published in said County
once a week for four consecutive
weeks previous to the return day
hereof, you summon Violet Cham-
ness, Defendant, to be and appear
before the District Court, 10th Judi-
cial District, to be holden in and
for the aforesaid County of Galves-
ton, at the Court House thereof, in
the City of Galveston, at the next
regular term of said Court, to-wit:
on the first Monday in June, 1929,
then and’there to answer the peti-
tjon f W. A. Chamness, Plaintiff,
filed in said Court on the 25th day
of March, 1929, and numbered on
the docket of said Court 45,122
against the said Violet Chamness,
Defendant, and alleging, in sub-
stance ,as follows:
That Plaintiff and Defendant
were legally married to each other
on the 15th day of April, 1927 and
that they lived together as man and
wife until or about the 15th day of
May 1927, when they separated and
since which time they have not liv-
ed together as man and wife al-
though they are man and wife at
law.
That immediately after their
marriage, plaintiff learned that the
defendant was a woman of ungov-
ernable temper and of a bad dis-
position. That the defendant quar-
reled, nagged and fussed constantly
and continuously from the day of
their marriage until the time of
their separation on the date stated
above. That during the time of
their marriage there was one con-
tinuous fuss, and there were very
few pleasant words spoken by the
defendant during the entire time.
That plaintiff plead and begged
defendant to amend her ways, but
conditions grew steadily worse. That
plaintiff endured such conduct on
the part of the defendant until he
was convinced that such was her
natural disposition and temper,
when he separated from her. On
account of the above named acts
and conduct, it will be impossible
and insupportable for plaintiff and
defendant to ever live together
again as man and wife.
That there is no community prop-
erty to be divided between plaintiff
and defendant.
WHEREFORE, the above premis-
es considered plaintiff prays that
