MARRIAGE PACT
ON ROCKS'
CLEVELAND, Ohio. Jan. 19.
Washington. D. C. marital rules
have yet to win recognition in
Ohio. This much David R. Levitt,
salesman, learned yesterday in com
mon pleas court here, when he was
refused a divorce on the ground
that his wife had not observed the
rules he laid down when he married
her in the Capital about six months
ago.
“We aren’t living in days of
feudalism," Judge Samuel Silbert
informed Levitt. "I don’t blame
your wife for leaving you. You
don’t deserve a divorce.”
Levitt laid down the following
rules, which Mrs. Levitt observed
for six months, then decided to
violate by returning to ier parents:
When he anived home in the
evening his wife must be there
with dinner ready, to serve imme
diately. The wife must only visit
her parents when Levitt granted
permission.
In visiting her husband’s store on
E Street Northwest, in Washing
ton, Mrs. Levitt must walk around
the block to avoid passing the store
of her father, which was in the
same block as that of her husband.
Mrs. Levitt appeared in court.

WEATHER HIM
■SCIEITW’
Out of the intermittent flare-up i
of controversy over long-range wea
ther forecasting, and shafts of j
criticism and rfdicule hurled at |
the Weather Bureau by Walter j
Janvrin Browne, conies today an
announcement by C. F. Marvin,
chief of tlie bureau, that long-range
forecasting will be employed as soon
as it can be put on a scientific
basis.
For a long time, said a formal
statement issued by Marvin, the
Weather Bureau and other sci
entific agencies have “been study
ing the possibilities of long-range
forecasting.”
The new method will be employed,
it was said, when it is based on
something other than a “foundation
of mere guess work.”
Up to the present time, Marvin,
supported by his entire staff, says,
“no practical methods have been
devised and so-called forecasts of
this character are no better than
mere guess.”
The Marvin statement consumes
four and a half typewritten pages
of legal size, and is devoted largely
to a defense of the Weather Bu
reau’s system of forecasting
severely criticised by Brown in re
cent months.
Local National Guard
To Encamp on July 26.
At the request of the War De
partment, the local national guard
officials have concurred in a re
commendation that the 260th Coast
Artillery be sent to its annual en
campment at Fort Monroe, Va.,
from July 26 to August 11.
Local guardsmen had originally
recommended the outfit go to field
training from August 12 to 26, but
the Pennsylvania national guards
men will not be at Fort Monroe
during this period, and therefore
the local men will train earlier.
Four entries have been certified
to the National Rifle Association
by local guard headquarters, for
the gallery matches of the current
year. Three company teams from
the local units have been certi
fied; Headquarters and Service
Company of the Engineers, and
Company E of the Engineers, while
the regimental team entry is for
the Engineers.
