 ''The present marriage law of the state. requires only one of the parties to be present when duplication is made for a license. So it frequently happens that the applicant is unable to give all of the information required concerning the other party. It is our belief thta this sometimes leadsato giving incorrect in- formation by persons who are not suffi- ciently impressed with the necessity for accuracy. Rather than take the trouble to obtain correct information, more or less guesswork is resorted to, in spite of the fact that information is given under oath. Still greater harm may result when only one party appears and gives false information in regard to the age of the other The female for example may be under the legal age and in order to ODtdln NCeHSG AW1tnOuC5 tne consent Of the parents purposely stays away With both parents present. the registrar would have oportunity to require proof of age if either party appeared to he un- der the legal age and parental consent was lacking. In addition to being pres ent, both parties should be required by law to take oath to their statements.
 An additional fact to be required on marriage licenses should be the street address, This is particularly desir- able in the case of non-residents, who sometimes attempt to evade the five day law, by giving Hartford as their place of residence. In doing this, they do not always verify the street num- hers, but select come street which they have observed in passing or get from the names of sreets on trolley cars. On several occasions in the past year applications have been addressed that do not exist, the number being either too

LABOR RELATIONS PLAN
DEVISED IN CLEVELAND
Chamber Of Commerce Committee
for Policy Of Representa-
tive Negotiations.

CLEVELAND, Ohio. March 1.-The
committee on labor relations Of the
Cleveland Chamber of Commerce has
formulated a labor relations policy,
pies concerning labor relations for
Cleveland. said to be the first instance
in the country where a definite policy
has been planned for a community by
a group of leaders of industry and la
Dor.
term used by the committee to replace
collective bargaining and as defined
provides for negotiations between an
employer and a committee Of his en-
ployes aided. if they desire. by a
competent advocate or adviser OF
lar to the method used by the railroad
brotherhoods and Is equally applica-
BILE to the shop committee method.
Progressive recommendations Of the
committee include adice to employ
ers to take the workers into their
employees financial and other infor-
nation concerning their enterprises.
The committee opposes compulsion
by either employer or employe to
maintain a union or non-union shop,
but recognizes the possibility Of a
mutual agreement of this character.
The report recognizes that the
eight-hour day has been adopted as
standard in many industries and es-
Establishments.
The declaration places the public's
right to service above the employees
right to strike. and the employers
right to lock out; advocates uninter-
rupted service to the public pending
settlement of disputes. and proposes
publication of the facts relating to
labor controversies to advise the pub
lie of their merits.
Public interest requires increasing
production. the report says. The cost
of living is given first place in wage
considerations. Overtime work is dis
couraged, and the Saturday half-holi-
day encouraged. The safeguarding Of
the health Of workers is advocated
and also enforcement by public off,
cials of all laws In respect to coercive
measures.
If called as arbitrator or board of
investigation, the committee will be
guided by the declaration of princi-
pies.
The declaration is now being sub
mitted to the members Of the chamber
for comments and suggestions prior
to action by the chambers board of
directors. II the directors approve the
report every effort will be made to
secure the adoption of these labor
principles by Cleveland employers and
employees. thus establishing q COM
munity labor relations policy.

USEFULNESS

A hungry and busy ola
hen found pearl in the
path. but a grain of wheat
would have been much
more pleasing.
And so it is with kind
ness. The cost of a gift
does not measure its appre-
citation. The interest and
intention of the giver are
what we weigh.
Friends cannot be bought.
but they can be brought
from long distance by
little kindnesseS.
The thing that binds our
friends to us and binds us
to our friends is usefulness.
In the midst of the dis
couragements and disap-
pointments of a day. it is
our duty to do as many lit
tie acts of usefulness as we
can. Good is done by de-
greeS. not all at once. The
community cannot pay you
a higher compliment than
to say you are useful.
The useful and the valu-
able are never separated.
Remember this.
