colder and middle-aged men are
getting arried in greater numbers
than ever before"
This statement was Vouchsafed
today by Colonel Knoll, who is In
charge OF the marriage license
docket at the District Supreme
Court, and who is a keen student
OF wedding psychology.
The past month of June" said
Colonel Knoll, 'is a record breaker
in more than one respect. June is
the proverbial marriage month,
and it Is therefore not surprising
that the tradition should be car
ried out. But there is a new fea-
ture to this months business. II
is the large number Of older and
middIe-aged men and women who
have applied for licenses. Most OF
them were widowers and widows,
and some OF them were Divorces.
81 figure II out that they had
sons who entered the service and
were killed in the war, or daugh-
terqs who Joined the Red Cross or
other organizations, taking tenn
away from home. The fathers
and mothers were thus left alone,
and they felt that they should
look for other comfort to NIL the
gap which was made in their
home life by the leave-taking OF
their sons and daughters"
