LAW FOR MARRIAGE

SATURDAY NEW STATUTE WILL

Application for License to Wed Re.

Petitioners Before Clerk

A law enacted at the last session of
the legislature to meet the objections
Of ministers, priests and others per-
forming the marriage ceremony that
it has been difficult for them to get
personal and statistical particulars
from the parties about to be married at
the time of performing the ceremony,
becomes effective Saturday, and bids
fair to increase the amount of work at
the marriage license bureau, where the
clerks already are overwhelmed with
the rush of June wedding parties.
While the new law does not make it
compulsory on both parties to mar
riage contract to appear at the bureau,
the person seeking a license must come
well fortified with information not only
regarding himself or herself, but the
partner of his or her joys also.
Before a permit to wed is granted
this information must be recorded on
blanks provided for the purpose, and is
later sent to the state board of health.
The information required in each case
must contain the race, color, age, name
and surname, birthplace and residence
of the parties about to be married;
whether single, widowed or divorced,
the occupation of the parties, maiden
name of the bride to be, names and
birthplaces of the parents of each, and
the maiden name of the mother of each.
