The wiater months on the other {hand are low. January had 19 marriages, February had 17 and the co'd winds of March saw 11 secnre marriage licences. March is the low for the year so far. | Although it has the weather in its favor, June has another trend to huck if it is to maintain its place as a marrying month. The long week-end bride is be- coming popular. One official said that the number of marriage li- cences issued takes a sharp jump before each long weekend. Thus the Thanksgiving Day bride, and the Lahor Day bride may popalar. So girls have to be pretty ca in Oshawa. August and long fie 4 end brides are stiff competition for June weddings.
