But the moro utilitarian clerk of the
city's Marriage License Bureau says
Cupid will have to order not more
moonlight but Jobs if he wishes to keep
the Philadelphia record for brides up to
standard. The total marriage licenses
issued for June. 1921. show a drop Of
seventy, compared with those issued in
June. 1920.
Lack of work is attributed as the
chief cause Of the drop. The boys are
afraid to get married.
Young Dan Cupid had further cause
to worry. Today is the beginning of the
new marriage license rate. which is
increased from 81 to 81 1.5O.
George Washington Flurer. Of 5l5
East Cabot street. a woodwOrker, and
Alice McGrath. of 1927 Earl street

"Thi7 year is ours. 1t belongs to the
legionaries and the Arditi, and we again
consccrate ourselves in one vast and
solemn bond. -
Reports that the port Of Baross, be
tween Fiume and Sussak. is TO be sep
aratcd from Fiume and ceded to Jugo-
Slavia have increased the excitement
here.
The lCgionarics claim they will save
Fiume from being throttlcd by tho loss
of Port BarosS." All Fiuman parties
contend that Port BarosS is an in
tegraI part Of the port of Fiumc. al
though the treaty of Rapallo C"dcd it
to the Jugo- Slays.
In his message to the legionuries
D'Annunzio said his Arditi had raised
the flag Of Italy above the port Of
Baross, which my desperate men de.
Tended for sixteen months. Three fell
dead, but the legionaries have not lost
honor nor hope. Let us swear today

There is much unrest in the city and
all party leaders have asked their fol-
lowers not to carry arms in the streets.
The funerals of seven men killed in re.
