Marriage Brokers Busy.

The marriage brokers, or "schat-
chens," as they are known in the
Ghetto district of the East Side, are
said to- have been responsible for the
recent drive of slackers at the marri-
age bureau. 1t is said that they did
a land office business supplying slack
ers with wives, collecting fees from
both the bride and the bridegroom to
be. The Federal officials learned that
only a few Of the young men Of draft
age who focked to the marriage IL
cense bureau with alleged sweethearts
knew little or nothing of the young
women they were to marry. The ac-
ton of the Federal agents in demand
ing to see the registration cards Of
men who sought marriage licenses has
caused the number of applicants at
City Hall for permission to wed to
fall off considerably. Instead of from
500 to 600 couples the daily average is
now only about 100.

New Brand of Cons.

The New York copy of 1917 will be
a physical prodigy. He will have
slim legs, a belt line suggesting the
wasp and low visibility. He will be
boyish looking, have a clean shaver
face and will have a free, bounding
gait. Many remember the old time
double-action, double-chinned cop who
could stand at a corner and quell a
riot with one beclubbed hand in front
of him while he reached the other
hand to the rear and committed petty
larceny from the peanut stand. Just
keep that type Of copy in mind and
try to imagine him being ordered to
peel off and step in the gym" for a
physical and mental test. The medical
and physical examiners of the Civil
Service Commissions are now examin-
ing 1000 men who aspire to be patrol
men. An old-fashioned cop would
stand no chance of passing the gruell-
ing physical tests that is at present
required for admission to the depart
ment.
