For instance, 1f an mglishwoman is deserted in he!‘ mi country by her husband who established a residence abroad, she ennot petition for divorce in this country, and if the husband es- tablishes a residence in Italy she untiot get a divorce at all because llaly does not recognize divorce.

The next step for the biological experts to work out; was how the different conditions. They found, Dr. Hunts- man explained, that there was a survival of eel-grass in e healthy state far up the inlets throughout Nova Scotla. and New Brunswick and that lower down where the salt water was more intensified it was in worse condition and very bad in the open sea. It was generally found that in the Maritimee fresh water was apparently giving protec- tion to the plant. The next stage in the findings was a survey made by the local eta- tfon at Eastern Passage which re- ported that "extensive patches of such growth as there has‘ been are dying or dead." A visit to the north shore of Prince Edward Island where formerly it was said to be growing normally, also upset the first finding, as eel grass was seen to be in an unhealthy condition there. Many gathering stations for cel- grass exist along the South Shore. "There are 14 collection stations in Yarmouth County alone," Dr. Huntsman asserted. “Ultimately the eel-graves should The Glcnwood Women's Institute come back to e normal condition," held their September meeting at the home of Mrs. Lorne Bette.
