issuance of a license for a marriage
to be performed in any county Of
the state provides that the county
where the ceremony is to take place
shall be specified in the license. Of
~ficiating person is required to satisfy
himself that the persons presenting
themselves are the parties named in
the license and he is required to re-
fuse to perform the ceremony if he
knows of any legal impeachment to the
marriage.
Check on Officials
The issuance Of the license shall
not be deemed to remove or dis
pense with any legal disability or i'm
pediment. Similar penalties are pro-
vided for persons who officiate at a
marriage knowing of any legal i'm
pediment or when the ceremony is
performed more than one year after
the date of the license.
Records of the issuance of licenses
and return of marriage certificates
shall be kept by the board of health,
to which body they will be forwarded
by the clerk of the court. The report
of the clerk must contain all of the
facts required to be ascertained by
him on the issuing of the license.
Also Takes Up Divorce
Senator Mains having disposed of
the prospective candidates for the
altar, next turns his attention to div
orce, a seeming accompaniment in
many instances. He has given notice
of q hill RI prou;do forop iptorlocu-
tory decree when a divorce is granted
and then he prohibits marriage OF
either or both the divorced parties
within a year, making such a mar
riage null and void and declaring it
to be a felony with heavy punish
ment.

STATE U OFFERS
MAIL COURSES
NONRESIDENT STUDENTS MAY
STUDY AT HOME AT MOD
ERATE COST

America Is realizing more and
more the necessity and importance
of developing to the fullest extent
pie, says a bulletin just issued by the
State University at Missoula. This
Is apparent on every hand. Our high
schools have shown an unprecedented
growth both In the number of schools
established and in the number of stu
dents attending them. Since 1890
the number of public schools has in
creased from a little more than 1900
to almost $4,000; and during the
same period the number of boys and
girls attending these high schools has
increased from about $4,000 to over
one and a half million.
The colleges and universities have
shown a similar growth in the num-
Der of students in attendance. Mon
tana university has shared this great
increase. A high school education
is offered almost at the very door of
most of the boys and girls of the
state. But until the facilities of the
every one, capable of profiting there
by, through correspondence study
courses arranged for home study,
they we're available only to young
men and women who could afford the
time and the means to take residence
courses.
In developing a considerable group
of home study courses the university
feels that she can now reach that far
greater number of mature as well as
younger people who do not find it
possible to attend residence classes
and yet feel a strong desire to o n
tinue their education. To this large
number the university seeks to ex-
tend her facilities for expanding their
education and training under condi-
tions that permit them at the same
time to carry on their regular occu-
|pations at home.
While home study lacks some of
the important advantages of resi-
dence work, such as social relations
with other students, the personal in
~fluence of instructors, ETC., it never
theless has its compensations. For
example, every student in the cores
pondence work studies, prepares and
recites the whole of every lesson;
and the teachers relation to a stu
dent is that of one individual to an
other and not as one individual to
a group.
Any student with a desire to learn,
to think straight, and to appreciate
the truth and beauty of the world
about him; and who has the will to
work may, through the correspond
ence study department of the univer-
sity, have these advantages brought
to his own fireside.
Courses through correspondence
are now offered in the following de-
partments: Biology, botany, bust
ness administration, economics and
sociology, education, English, geol-
ogy, history and political science,
home economics, Latin, mathematics,
modern languages, music and psy-
chology. In these departments more
than eighty different courses are Of
fered. A small fee of $3.50 per
is charged students for this
work which renders the department
practically self-supporting.
Any one interested may secure a
correspondence study bulletin by. adj
dressing the department at the state
at Missoula.

SENATOR WOULD
HARNESS CUPID
WOULD MAKE THOSE ABOUT TO
COMMIT MATRIMONY GIVE
NOTICE TO WORLD
Father. Mother or the Guardian
Would Have to Join LovelOrn In
Application for Marriage License;
After Divorce, Too.

L Senator D. F. Mains of Ponder'
Fcounty certainly cannot be ccuse
OF being opposed to matrimOny, We
he gave notice recently of a bill which
Will make 1t most difficult to Obtain
a license to wed.
In his proposed bill, however, N
draws the line on a lot of folk
who have been in the habit of rush
ing into matrimony without due con
~sideration OF the consequences AM
he proposes to take the kick out o.
~elopements of sappy young things BY
requiring them to give notice OF In
tentiOn to obtain a license and the1
to bring in pa or ma or the guardian
and convince the clerk before the Ii
cense m out. The limit, even with
parental consent, is put on youths
at Is and maidens at 16. They shall
not marry at all.
Under FL for the groom and Is
years for the bride consent must be
obtained.
Punishment in Sight
Moreover, If any false statements
are made. under any circumstances,
no matter what the age OF the con-
tracing parties, to obtain a marriage
license, the jail looms large. In fact
Senator Mains would tighten up the
matrimonial market to quite an ex-
tent as this review OF his proposed
bill will show:
Diseased Out of 1t
Paupers, imbeciles, predetermined
or persons afflicted with tuberculO-
sis or venereal diseases are forbidden
to marry under the section of the
bill which prohibits the issuing of a
marriage license to such persons.
That Becti0n also regulates marriages
by relatives, prohibiting the issuing
Of a license to persons of the degree
of consequently of great-uncle and
g~reat-niece or ~great-aunt and great
nephew.
Fol the purpose of checking run
away marriages provision is made
that application for a marriage IL
cense must be made by one of the
parties to the marriage at least two
weeks before the license is issued and
10 days before the marriage n or
both of the parties must appear and
make a statement under oath regard
ing the date Of marriage, names of
the contracting parties, physical and
mental condition, relationship, if any,
of parents OF guardians, and
complete information regarding prior
marriages and the manner of disso-
luton thereof. All marriage licenses
are to be obtained in the county
wherein the woman resides instead OF
the county where the marriage is to
take place, as. under the existing law.
Provision is made, however, that the
marriage may take place in any
county Of the state.
The Kevin review. [volume] (Kevin, Mont.) 1922-1929, 1923-02-15
Both Must Appear

Licenses may not be issued unless
both of the contracting parties per-
sonally appear before the clerk OF
the district court and make a state
ment under oath Of the legality OF
the contemplated marriage.
Obtaining of licenses by minors is
made much harder than under the
existing laws, provisions being made
that licenses shall not be issued to
males under IS years of age or fe-
males under 16 years. Consent of
parents must be obtained and proper
ly verified by affidavit before a not
airy public OF other authorized Off
cial, where the. prospective groom is
under FL years. O II the bride has not
attained the age of 18 years, and the
affidavit shall be filed of record in
the office of the clerk of the district
court and entered by him on the mar
riage license docket.
