SUNDAY
HUSBANDS
BY John P. Medbury.

MATRIMONIAL statistics show
Nk that New York City has
three thousand Sunday Hus-
bands Al Sunday husband is
married man who owes so
much 8alimony that he has to
spend six days of the week over
! In Jersey.
On the sabbath he crosses the
Hudson River and spends the day
making faces at the sheriff.
The law is that a man can owe
Ill the, alimony he wants be-
tween 1859 p. m. Saturday and
1901 q. m. Sunday.
During those hours his wife
cant do anything to him except
wish him bad luck. NJ
Then from Monday morning
until Saturday night she has to
be content with calling him
names over the rong distance
telephone. U.s.
But she has. all week to think
up names to call him.
