PRIVATE PACT ON WEALTH
ChlcaRe. Dec. 20. After n married
life of twenty-six .venrs Mw. Kdltli
lleckpfeller fcCenn!ck. daughter of
Jehn D. Rockefeller, yesterdny obtained
n divorce from Hareld F. MoCermlck
In wliftt was said te be a record time
In Chlcace courts.
Only fifty minutes elapsed from the
time Mrs. McCermlcIc filed her bill until
' the decree was signed by Judge Charles
A. McDonald. Alimony was net men
tioned in the decree.
Mrs. McCermlek appeared In court
it 10:i"0 o'clock nnd filed her bill,
which tersely charged her husband
with deserting her en May 27, 1018,
in Zurich, Switzerland. A f"v min
utes later Mr. MtCermick'a attorneys
filtd an answer admitting the charge of
desertion, nnd less than twcnty-flvc
minutes Inter the hearing was started.
Mr. McCermlek did net appear In court.
Left Her In 1018
Mrs. McCermlek was asked leas
than half n dozen questions by her
attorneys, eliciting the fctatcments
necessary te bustain the bill. She tes
tified that she was married in ISO.",
that Mr. McCermlek left ber in Zurich
in J01S without reason, and that he bud
linee failed te provide for her.
The decree did net mention Iho three
children of the couple. Hareld F. Mc Mc
eormlek, Jr., nnd Miss Muriel Mc Mc
eormlek arc new living with their
father heie, while Mntblldc, the second
daughter, Is abroad.
Friends of the McCermlcks had fore fere
icen that the end of their domestic
tangle was near, for they both an
nounced thnt this was the lrt enr
they would make up the deficit of the
Chicago Grand Opera Company. They
are paying the 000,000 deficit this
year.
The announcement of the divorce
caused great excitement nt the audi
torium, where groups of grand opera
Kara discussed It eagerly.
Ter months it has been rumored thnt
the friendship of McCermlek and Miss
Mary Garden, directrix of the company,
mould tonic day end In marrlugc.
The rumor was further strengthened
when it wns declared by several mem
bers of the opera company that Miss
Garden would positively retire from the
itage nt the end of the 1023 tenseii.
New the friends of the diver-cd
couple en the "geld const" are simply
wondering when the expected announce
ment of the marriage of McCermlek
and Miss Garden will be made public.
Adjust .Meney Interests
i A private agreement adjusting all
the huge money interests involved wns
drawn up in advance of tlm suit and
Is In th" bands of ntterneys. T'ndT
the agreement tfie property is divided
en a basis of actual ewncri-hlp. the two
parties each receivlns cxactlv whnl
each purchased. Ne money settlement
is mane upon .Mrs. McCermlek.
.The one miner child. MiUhllde, is
ien her choice ns te which pnient slip
will Hve with. The McCermlek town
leube. nt 1000 Lake Shere drive. It Is
underttoed, gees te Mrs. McCermlek.
while Hep husbnnd retains the show
place at Lake Ferest.
Although the divorce disrupts one of
the wealthiest hohwhehh In America,
no word of property settlement or all all
neny was spoken in court. Mrs. Mc Mc
eormlek pef-scsees millions in her own
aame, nnd Mr. McCermlek is u multi
millionaire. Mr. McCermlek 'a nttor ntter
Jejs, nfler the henrlnc. said there tnizlit
be a division of property in which Mr.
nnd Mrs. McCermlek arc jointly inter.
ted. Tt is net expected, thev tnld,
that the separation v 111 nftVct their ro re
cnt loin gift of !; property or sup.

FASCINATION
Have you ever experienced the delight of effortless swing,
and while you pressed your feet slightly en the controller, watched
the fabric glide magically beneath the needle?
Have you known the joy of silent sewing, se noiseless that
one could read aloud te you while you sew?
That is what the Electric Autemntic does for you, and there is
no bobbin te run out in the midst of the seam. Them is no tpnuirm
te adjust, for it automatically adjusts itself, while the seam it
iiiunus is unuxceucu in uuuuiy ana strengtn.
Yeu can sew upstairs or down, or en the perch, for it is
PORTABLE. It can be carried with one hand.
It is the result of sixty years' experience, and is the Willcox &
