Clerk +. l.. Burnett. In that month
for 1916 ten licenses were issued and
only six were granted for January of
this year. The clerk attributes the
decrease to the bad roads and to the
snowstorms.
The year 1916 was a good year for
Cupid, as there was a total Of 121
permits to we'd granted. Only los
were issued for 1915. What will the
harvest be at the end of this year?
Unless the would-be benedicts do bet
ter in the succeeding months, the to-
tai for 1917 will go away below the
high water figures of a year ago.
But then we have the merry month
of June yet, when the SWANS are the
most active and then there is Sep
TENDER and October, very good
months for the license bureau, so
there Is no use in being discouraged,
and placing the blame for the pres
ent low figures upon the war or the
high cost of living. But if a man
wants to make money, he might per-
feet a cure for bashfulness and raise
the figures to a progressive total.
