MARRIAGE LICENSES SHOW PROFIT UNDER GERMAN OFFICIALS

BERLIN. March 24. Marriage lloen'es are being utilized for profiteering "by Germans- The marriage "profiteer" developed out of the situation which has made necessary the strict "rationtog" ot housing space. A married couple or a pair about to be married may obtain permission to occupy rooms by presentation of the marriage license to the Housing office. . It has been discovered that many marriage licenses have been , issued to men and -women "who have no intention to marry but, having secured the license, and the permiseion to occupy the number of rooms allotted to married persons, sell the "permission" to married folks or others who need rooms and cannot find thpm. The officials say some profitable business has been don, but that the practice is being stopped by keeping a watch on those to whom marriage licenses are granted and withdrawing permission to occupy rooms unless the marriage is performed. Marriages, however, eclipsed all the previous records in the last year. The number has increased two-fold over pre-war years, and many fold over the marriages during the war, which fell to less than half the normal number. "Many young folXs today are getting married here simply to get a room cheaply," said a Berlin official. "The cost of the dwelling is cut in half by the marriage of a man and woman both of whom are working. They also feel they can co-operate to some ad- - vantage in the matter of food, which is ; a serious problem." FOULKE PURLISHES NEW POEM COLLECTION "Today and Yesterday," a collection of sonnets and other verses by William Dudley Foulke, has just left the Oxford University Press, and copies of the book have been received by his friends in this city. Mr. Foulke has grouped his poems under the following heads: Life and Love, the Common Weal. Old Art and New, Indiana and Elsewhere, Prose and Pentameters, Fire, War Poems, and In the Struggle. A glance at the contents of the latest contributions of the Richmond poet shows that the poems are of comparatively recent origin. The volume includes the "Centennial Ode," which Mr. Foulke read on admission day at the state house in Indianapolis, in 1916. "The Old Timer Comes Back to Centervllle," is the musing of a pioneer who returns to the old historic town of Wayne county. The poems which Mr. Foulke wrote during the war period portray his abiding faith in the righteousness of the allied cause, and stirring appeals to America to prepare for her entrance into the struggle. "The City of God" is considered one of the masterly poems of the collection, and follows in its entirety:. When upon Patmos God unsealed the eyes Of His last prophet, John beheld a city, Not fixed Immutably in heaven, no; But coming down to earth like a sweet bride Adorned to meet her lord. Be that the dream Of all who love the city where they dwell. However sordid it may be today, However it may reek with filth and squalor, Disease and vice and poverty and crime. That be the form wherein our hopes shall fashion The city that we love. Coming from God, Filled with His justice and His tender grace And shining with His calm eternal Joy. Prepared as a young bride with robe and wreath And veil and jewels not the gems alone Of physical adornment, but the smile Of spiritual grace, the delicate blush Of purity, the tears of tenderness. Eyes that awaken hope in dull despair, A heart that cherishes the humblest child With mother love. There within every home Knowledge shall shine, fair dealing and good will Prevail in every deed. This is a dream We cannot wholly turn to flesh and blood, But we can draw more close each year and grow More and more like the perfect city of God.
