Young Mrs. Giutidon Is seeking a divorce from this husband, Howard Granden, electric merchant. She was calmly testifying as to th» alleged Indiscretions of her wealths young husband when Judge Day sud .lenly Interrupted her with the ques i ion: Heroine* lly«(rrlrnl. "Wei l n't you mentioned in the Hop son divorce case, Mrs. Granden?" .Mrs. (li.tnden became hysterical ai i tie mention of this rather famous ease, but admitted that site had been prominently mentioned.

I toting Granden encouraged this I flirtation because of his own pen j | hant for flirtations and because he | wished to shock people, according to j testimony. “He didn’t want to see Mrs. Gran den lonely and unhappy, and It eased j I his conscience to have her playing : golf with another man,” was the1 opinion, testified to by a witness for | Mrs. Granden. Aviator Hopson lived with the I Grandens for many months and ht ' .ml Granden Jointly owned an expen sive motor car, testimony has It. Signal for Parties. And it was young Mrs. Granden who drove to and from the govern ment air mall landing field in this car, icting ns chauffeur for Hopson, it was admitted. Nor was Mrs. Granden likely to be unaware of the young pilot’s ap proach by air, for he had a habit of swooping down from the skies and flying low over the Granden home, so that the roar of his ship’s motor in formed her of his arrival, so It was testified. The arrival of Aviator Hopson was the signal for a series of gayeties, such ns golfing and teas and theater i allies. In which Mrs. Granden. Avia tor Hopson and upon occasion Oran den himself participated, I.etters Introduced. Young Mrs. Granden, lithe and pretty despite the lines of care on her youthful countenance, told how un happy she had liecome ns a result of her husband’s alleged association with another woman, and how trying his alleged willingness for her also to con duct a flirtation had proven. There were letters from this "other woman” to Mr. Granden which were Introduced but not read. Mrs Granden was called tmek at the end of the hearing for furthei questioning. Old Enough to Know. "Where is Air Pilot Hopson now?” she was asked. "I don’t know," shs responded faintly. "It would seem that Mr. Hopaon was old enough to know that there are certnin conventions to bt ob served,” said Judge Hay, as he took the case under advisement. “It ap pears that Mrs. Granden, Influenced perhaps by her husband'* nonchal ance, has also chosen to Ignore cer tain convention*." The Grandens wpre married In 1919 Mrs. Urunden wus then 19. “Quite All Kig^t.” The Hopson divorce cess. In which Mr*. Granden was mentioned, ended after long litigation when Mra. Hop aon waa given a decree of aeparate maintenance from her aviator hu* hand, and the custody of a little non. Hopson was the fsther of this child and Mr*. Hopson tlje step mother. During the trial young Granden ap pea red and testified, after Mr* Granden had beet) mentioned, that her relation* with Jfopgpn were pure., ly those of a friend and ’'quite all right."
