If you are not serving the Lord, you are serving the devil.

Notices uf the filing „rif_ j
for divorce appear daily in
newspapers. Something has gone
wrong with the marriage, and
one of the spouses is asking the
court to end the marriage by
granting a divorce.
Occasionally, however, we
read that someone is suing for
an annulment of their marriage.
The average reader may be in-
clined to say, “What is the dif-
ference?” Obviously the mar-
riage is terminated if the court
grants the petition, whether for
divorce or annulment.
In the case of a divorce, the
plaintiff (the person asking for
an end to the marriage, whether
the husband or wife) recognizes
that the two parties involved
were validly married and that
there is an existing valid mar-
riage. •
The plaintiff alleges, though,
that the other spouse has been
guilty of some act which the law
says constitutes a ground for di-
vorce. If the divorce is granted,
a marriage that actually exists
is terminated legally by the
court. •
In effect, the court tells the
couple that they were validly
and legally married at one time,
but no longer are.
On this truly American holiday we give thanks
for our many blessings He has deigned to de-
liver on us. We give thanks for the privilege
of serving you. our friends.

Whether the action takes the
form of a divorce or an annul-
ment, the decree will have no
effect on the legitimacy of the
couple’s children. Our statutes 4
provide that the children of cou-
ples whose marriages have been
declared null shall nevertheless
-<! be legitimate.-------------------p----
Every divorce petition must
set out the name, age, sex and
residence of each child under 16
year§ of age born of the mar-
riage involved. Then, before a
divorce may be granted, the %
trial judge is required by law to I
inquire into the “surroundings
and circumstances” of each such
child.
Having considered all the per-
tinent facts and circumstances,
the court in granting a divorce
may give the custody and educa-
tion of the child to either the
father or mother. The governing a
factor here is the judge’s belief
and findings with regard to the
best interests of the child him-
self. ’
Either parent may be required
to make periodical payments for
the benefit of the child, and may
be punished for contempt of
court in event of failure to com-
ply with the support order.
In the past some trouble has
been experienced in enforcing*
support orders against parents
who move out of the state, as a
person cannot ordinarily be ex-
tradited for the purpose of an-
swering a contempt of court
charge. However, many states
(including Texas) have recently
passed laws providing for the
reciprocal enforcement of such
: orders, which is bringing some p,
