AN OFFICIAL MATRIMONIAL AGENCY
It is announced that the Saxon Province of Prussia has organised a new matrimonial agency. The authorities have come to the conclusion that there can be no more effective method of caring for the dependents of fallen soldiers than arranging for .the remarriage of “young war widows.” Moreover, two birds can be killed with one stone by marrying the war widows to disabled soldiers. Consequently, the authorities at Magdeburg are now busily collecting reports on war widows and reports on suitable soldier bridegrooms. The reports will be published, without names, in a periodica] circulated in the hospitals, and the authorities will then arrange for fur-1 thcr ‘‘mediation” by word of mouth or) writing. |
