WAR MARRIAGES FAILURES?
Indications Are That Many Brides Are
firing of Their Hero
Husbands.

Boston Aug. 9,-Are war brides tIr-
ing of hero husbands? This is the
question the sOciol0gists are asking
while keeping an eye on the divorce
court dockets. where startling figures
are arousing attention. Whether it Is
war brides or hero husbands, there is
one ray Of Hight and hope Although
the divorce figures are swelled to bal
loon size, the marriage licenses have
likewise registered at high and are
keeping fair pace.
BY far the greater number Of dl-
vorccs are granted to women, and far
the greater Number Of these are for
desertion. SO it would seem that If
the war has entered into the scheme
Of marriage and divorce the hero Of
the war is not doing his share Of mat
rimonAal duty.
