LEAP P.YEAR'SENDS
 MARRIAGES HICK
(BY United pre-st

New York, March 2.-Exercise of Leap Year prerogatives, continuation of war romances and the generally improved economic condition of the country are advanced as causes for the phenomenal gains being made in the number of marriage licenses being issued in all sections of the United States. Figures gathered by the United Press show that the marriage license totals for January and Feb ruary greatly outstripped the number issued during the same two months last year. In some cases, the increase is only few, ranging upward to the hundreds.
 Boston is the only large city of the nation not to show an increase in the of its licenses. The Hub City Is registering steady decrease.

Another soldier who died in for

caSket draped with the stars and
Stripes, escorted by Stanley Laichy, of
the Thirteenth Infantry, of Hobokeh,
n. j., the mortal remains of Walker S.

held Friday afternoAl at Bryant's sta
ton at O'clock with prayer by Rev

in which the remains came were OF
the finest and heaviest make. The
box enclosing the casket was so large
that it would not go into the hearse,
But had to be taken out on a truck.

years of age at the time of his death
and is survived by his wife, father
and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas

der the period of regulation by the
food administration. This action has
been taken by the dealers voluntarily
and because it is forced on them by
the scarcity of sweetening. Sugar is
scarcer today in this country than it
has been since the days Immediately
following the war between the states.
Not only is the quantity to any pur-
chaser limited but the price is sky
rocketing to dizzy heights never be-
fore known. Already several MGR
chants are selling sugar here at thr-
ty cents the pound while other who
happen to have On hand a supply that
was purchased prior to the latest rise
are selling it at quarter a pound A
dollars worth of sugar looks like a
quarters worth in pre-war days. AS a
matter of fact the increase in price
since the war began six years ago has
been about COO per cent. In August,
1914, one could get hundred pounds
of sugar at around IS. Now the whole
sale price of one hundred pounds is
twenty-six cents a pound, and some
are selling at above that figure.
Inquest .onabIy the scarcity and
high price Of sugar is going to very
seriously cut down the preserving and
canning of fruits and berries. The
greatest scarcity has come just at the
beginning Of the berry season, when
demand is at its peak. In this season
sales to the country folks and to many
town customers have in the past been
made in hundred pound quantities.
Now two pounds would not be sufii-
cient to justify the average h0use-
wife in preparing fruits for canning
and preserving Tho dealers here t
only do not give any encouragement
