ALL MUST GET LICENSE
Course of True Love Leading to Matri-
mony to be Much Harder

New regulations have been agreed
upon by Judge Slosson Of the County
Court and Judge Randall Of the MUM
cipal Court IN regard to- the issuance
of court orders for wedding cere-
monies and in the future it will be
necessary for every couple marrying
in Kenosha county to secure a regular
license from the county clerk After
this license is secured either Of the
judges may grant dispensation for an
immediate marriage if the circum-
stances warrant it. The agreement
win mean much in keeping the records
of the county and incidentally it will
greatly increase the fees Of the county
clerk for marriage licenses. In past
years the order has been issued with
out the license the two being embodied
in the single order from the court of
record, but after consultation the
judges held that the intent of the law
was to have the regular license issued
and then the dispensation granted.
This course will be followed in all
cases in the future.
