Pi THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1929 GIRLS' PROSPECTS IN RATIO T0 AGE Prospects of Marriage High- est for Girl of Twenty-- Man Has No Age Limit Montreal, Aug. 29.--Figures re- lating to marriageability of women in ratio to their age, drawn up by 'the Metropolitan Life Insurance pany are discussed in an edi- torial by L'Evenement, and to the frivolous 20-year-old may be time- ly warning. The article is as fol- lows: "The young girl of 20 who sees everything through rose-tinted glasses and who thinks of mothing but the frivolities of her generation gives no thought to the future, it has been said. She murmurs to herself 'I am young and beautiful and have plenty of time to marry; I'll wait for a good match." Illu- sions of youth, so often deceivea! "Nowadays the young girl dreams of a carefree existence and an income sufficient to procure her every whim. Happiness in the home is secondary provided she has the compensation of money. "At 20 the chances of marriage are about 75 per cent. At 25, when the young woman dons the coif of St. Catherine (patroness of spin- sters), her chances of matrimony begin to dwindle and increasingly 80 as the years go on. "A survey of the question of marriage which has been carried out by the statisticians of the Me- tropolitan Life, shows that the op- portunities for marriage are two- thirds for a girl 20-25 years old; from 26 to 30 she has only a 50 per cent. chance. From- 30 to 35 she has a one-third prospect. Af- ter 35 her matrimonial chances are relatively diminished. "The survey shows that in the case of men, the likelihood of mar- riage between the ages of 20 and 25 are practically nil. It is after 25 that men marry, and with them there appears to be no age limit to their matrimonial eligibility."

HUNDRED-FT. SPAN FALLS INTO CREEK Workmen Miraculously Es- cape Serious Injury on Highway Sarnia, Aug. 29.--Damage estimated at $50,000 was sustained when the hundred foot span of a new bridge on provincial highway No, 21, two miles northeast of Petrolia, crashed into the bed of Break Creek Tues- day night, according to reports re- ceived here yesterday. The cause of the sudden collapse of the structure, which 'was being built by the Ryan Construction company of Windsor, had not been determined up to a late hour vesterday. Two workmen, Louis Feltron and Lawrence Botoilotti, both of Windsor sustained severe bruises and shock in' the crash. The lives of about 40 men were in jeopardy as the massive structure collapsed. At 6 o'clock when work was about to cease for the day 'a threatening rumble was heard in the centre of the main span. The workers, sensing danger fled. Before all could get off the span it fell crashing into the Creek. Feltron and Botollotti were the only persons injured. No bones were fractured.

The language problem has been MEETS OPPOSITION Whatever doubts existed concerning the sin- Free State re- store tle Irish language have been dispelled by the announcement of the new plans of the Department of Education and by statements from prominent members of the minis- tery that the native tongue will be a vexation question for many years. Until the Gaelic League was organ- ized it was a dying tongue, only spoken in certain isolated districts in the south and west, but siuce the formation of the Free State its revival in the schools and col- leges has been remarkably success- ful, Irish is now a compulsory sub- ject. Knowledge of it is essential for admission to the national Uni- versity and to the civil service al- though it is entirely a foreign speech to the older zeneration. Of course, opposition to the re- vival has been. strong. Leaders of the Church of Ireland have been loud in condemnation of the ele- ment of compulsion. They argue that parents should have a right to say what subjects their children might learn or be taught, They de- clare that the introduction of Irish into the school curriculum over- burdens the program and forces in- to the background more important fields. It ig also held that from an economic viewpoint Irish is eniire- ly useless. Language enthusiast {insist on the other hand, that a nation hav- ing a native tongue cannot allow it to die without losing its self-re- spect, They hold bi-lingualism as an ideal since few want to see English discarded even if such a goal were possible and point to -college re- cords to show that students with a working knowledge of both Irish and English excel in other subjects. One telling argument against the language lies in the fact that it has no contemporary literature and that the younger people must read the classics in English. It was to meet this apparent lack that the department of Education has de- termined on a comprehensive pub- lishing program. Within the next few months and continuing for about ten years, one book a week volumes will include a carefully selected and varied list of what will be published in Irish. These are considered classic work. Al- ready the Minister for Education has obtianed sanction to spend $35,000 annually as a subsidy for the project.
