Doctors Should Marry People.

Said prominent physician the other day:
"Why is 1t that authority for performing
marriage ceremonies is lodged in the hands
OF ministers instead Of being given to the
doctors? OF course, l do not advocate sucn
q course as was taken By Lycurgus TO
make the people of his country race OF
perfect physical beings, but there are many
mild steps toward this end which might be
taken by the rulers of this country. What
is minister supposed to know about
whether two certain persons should marry
or not? If a crippled red-headed man
weighing los pounds come to him with a
request that he be joined to deformed
red-headed woman, weighing 500 pounds, he
ties the knot, waiting only long enough to
examine the license and collect his fee.
Now, physicians have enough to do, but
I believe il would be a good thing for this
country and for the human race IL they
were given this authority and would exer-
else it properly. If L had my way no two
should be united for life unless they had
good, strong and sound physical make-ups
Then l would never marry two blends. but
would always require a blond to secure a
brunette for partner. IF this were done
we would have fewer red-headed, weak
eyed people, and besides becoming more
beautiful as race We would soon become
stronger and longer lived.
