Widowers Seek
Spinsters to Wed
Second Time
Figures of Insurance Company Show
Larger Percent Than Widows
Harrying Bachelors.
New York, N. Y. tn selecting a
second mate the average widowed or
divorced man has a stronger tendency
to marry a spinster than the widowed
or divorced woman has to marry a
bachelor, according to the statis
ticians of the Metropolitan Life In
surance company.
Divorced persons, more often than
widows or widowers, take for their
second consort a person who has not
previously been married, while those
v. ho have been married two or more
times, whether divorced or widowed,
ate distinctly less likely to marry a
single person than are those whe
l ave been married only once before.
An analysis of the marital Cata of
New York State, excluding New York
city, for the three years, 1932-1934,
revealed these facts. In making their
study, the insurance company's statis
ticians called attention to the fact
tnat th conditions influencing a sec
ond cr later marriage are different
from thos..' governing individuals :
! embarking on this enterprise for the
.first time. They point out that there
is a different psychology, a different
I
! set of h.ahits. a changed economic
I situation as a general rule, especially
! it children from the earlier mar
: riage tire present, and that the aver
! age age of those marrying a second
tme is naturally more advanced than
! cf those marrying for the first time.
I Some of the percentages compiled
by the statisticians are: 45.5 per cent
.of the v. idov.ers who remarried took
'spinsters for wives, while only 29. 8
J per cent of the remarrying widows
took bachelors for their grooms. The
'corresponding figures for the di
vorced were 63.7 per cent and G1.0
! per cent.
Less than half 42.2 per cent oron the tenth Tuesday before the state
the v. idowers who remarried took
(widows for a se:ond consort, while a
'little more than half, namely, 51.1
! per cent of the w idows who again be-
enme brides married widowers.
I The study shows that when a dl
, vorced man remarries he 13 more
; likely to choose a divorced woman
,than a widow for hi3 second partner
but that the reverse is the case when
a divorced woman remarries. The
.figures also show that of all the di
vorced males who remarried, 22 per
jcc-nt chose divorcees and 13.4 per
c:U chose widows; divorced women.
,on the contrary, chose divorced men
in 18 4 per cent of the cases, and
widowers in 19.5 per cent.
"The much-married tend to mate
with the much-married" is the ap-
jrarent conclusion to be drawn from
jthe following:
"Among the widowed who had
1 been married twice or more, 14.0
(per cent of the grooms and 16.2 per
j cent of the brides took as consorts
.persons who also had been widowed
j twice or more. On the other hand,
of those who had been widowed once,
only ;..4 per cent of the grooms and
! 4.0 per cent of the brides took as
j consorts persons who had been
widowed twice or more. A similar
situation i3 revealed when marriages
between the divorced are studied."
Improving our farm-to-market
, roads will be of direct benefit to
jeveryone in Cass county.
WOMEN IN THE HOME
Madison, Wis. Another bill de
signed to lake the married woman
cut of governmental employ and put
her back in the home went to the
Wisconsin legislature. Assemblyman
Maurice Fitzsimons, undismayed by
the defeat his proposal suffered in
the last two legislative sessions, re
introduced a bill which was broad
ened to include any married woman,
whether man or wife, but his primary
concern still is the wife.
