Bishop Approves 'Obey'
in Wedding Ceremony
Cincinnati, O.—The word "obey" in
the marriage ceremony was indorsed
by Bishop Daniel S. Tupple, of St.
Louis, at the noonday service at the
Lyric theater, when the head of the
Episcopal House of Bishops explain
ed that the word is not intended to
convey the idea of subordination, but.
rather to define the relative duties of
man and woman in the marriage tie.
"The man's place." said Bishop Tup
ple, "is to establish and protect the
home; that of the woman, to.cherish
it when established."
Divorce, added the veteran bishop,
is the consuming evil of society to
day, threatening the family, because
society fails to recognize the family,
rather than the Individual as its unit.
