How many chances has the
average young American woman
of receiving proposal of mar
riage?
If she makes up her mind to
wait for the right young man, is
she running a chance of not get
ting married at all?
A recent writer has hazarded
the assertion that a woman "a
years of age who refuses a pro-
posal has only one chance in six
of receiving another offer of mar
riage. In other words, the aver
age girl who passes "a without
marrying has relatively small
chance of marrying.
Chances Best Up to %
Data which the census bureau
has collected show conclusively
that It is not true that a woman
who is not affianced at "a years Of
age has only one chance in six of
receiving proposal later. The
fact seems to be that between 25
and 29-i. e., in the next lustrum
her chance of an offer Of mar
riage is about one in two, or so
lper cent of certainty.
AS a basis for figuring, It would
appear fairly safe to assume that
the average woman Of 25 to 20
does not refuse more than one
proposal out of two. Supposing
this to be the case, her chance of
an acceptable offer between those
ages is at least one in four.
This inference is drawn from
the fact Gas recorded by the GEN.
sus bureau) that one woman in
every four Is married between the
ages of 20 and 20.
Thirty-nine out of every 100
women in this country are married
between the ages of 20 and "a. OF
the remainder, rs are married be-
tween 20 and 20. The latter peri
cd Is the most important matri-
lmonial epoch for women, barring

until middle afe, and the perCent-
age of them who never marry ~
all is steadily increasing.
Owing chiefly to the fact that
women, as a rule, marry men c0n-
siderably older than themselves,
there are In this country, accord
ing to census figures, nearly three
times as many widows as widow.
ers.
This is a matter Of no small imr
portance, because, matrimonia1fy
speaking, widows are the most
dangerous rivals against whom
maidens have to contend. They
remarry oftener than recognised
spinsters marry, and, when Il -,
realized that every such remar-
riage deprives one unmarried
woman of a husband, the serious
ness of this factor In the mat1nG
problem becomes manifest. On top
Of that comes along the war ahd
the taking away of many ELIGIBLE
men, thus cutting down the NUM-
Der of chances for every woman.

tributed to the steadily growing
|disinclination of men to marry
and Of women to be content with
what once seemed an inevitable
situation.
This Discrimination is partly
due, doubtless, to the rise In the
cost of living. Men Of small or
moderate incomes hesitate to as
sumo the obligations of wife and
family. The single man nowadays
can get along comfortably without
a woman to take care of him.
Taking 100 average women in
the United States, so of them are
married before they have reached
rs years of age. But at rs, only
23 men have taken wives. At 80
years of age Is of the women have
been mated, but only sc of the
men.
Men Marry Later
This shows how much later men
marry than women. In truth, 1t is
becoming more and more the fash
ion for men to postpone marriage

Probabilities in "Waiting"
1t is obvious that ten average

turns up, instead of jumping al
the first or second opportunity.
In this connection, 1t might BIZ
asked, at what age does a woman
become manageable? Most peo-
pie would say, IS. But the census
bureau finds that hundreds OF
American girls in every twelve
month are married at Is. Thou
sands annually are married at IS.
Out of every 100 women in this
country IL have married before
passing 10.
1t is clearly shown by the cen
sus data that a young woman's
chance of offers is decidedly bet
ter in q rural community than
anywhere else. Furthermore, the
opportunity of marriage will come
earlier.
More "Old Maids"
Nothing that has thus far been
said should be accepted as imply

The census bureau finds that,
out of every 100 persons of the

BILE offers between the ages of 80

fore, according to Deputy Sheriff
Henry Plemer Of Waiakua. Four boys
who escaped last week are still at
large.
The authorities have also had con-
siderable trouble in catching the boys
which is due, it is said, to a lack of
rewards. The people Of Waiakua are
doing very little to help Superinten-
dent Frederick Anderson as they
think it is useless if they do not re-
ceive remuneration.
1t is pointed out that when Hugh
Tucker was superintendent of the
school everybody who caught and re-
turned a runaway boy was given a
IS reward. This made Mr.. Tucker
popular and the people were glad to
help.

Sl63 GIVEN FOR
COMFORT BAGS

The amount received to date for
comfort bags and for the soldiers
Christmas is 1853. Donations are
coming in regularly and it is expected
that the full $4,000 will be realized so
that it will not be necessary to divert
any money from the funds of the war
relief committee for this purpose. Sew
eral donations have simply been en-
closed in an envelope, and it is hoped
that some name can be given so that
the committee will at least have the
privilege Of thanking the donor for
the interest shown.
The large poster which appears on
Fort street Help to Bear the Red
Cross Burden" was donated by Harry
Sheehan of the Stephenson Painting
company, who did the actual work on
the same, and the Charles R. Frazier
company, which owns the space. This
is poster which has been used with
great effect throughout the United
States. 49,
