THE CRIMINALITY OF BACHELORHOOD.
Marry or Commit Crime. Montclair, N.J. Nov. 18. Prof. Earl Barnes in a talk before the Mothers’ Congress at Upper Montclair recently said that bachelorhood tended towards criminality. “ Statistics proved that the criminals of the world are generally those who are not married,” he said. Prof. Barnes condemned the profession of school teaching, which, he said, necessitated celibacy on the part of 360,000 women in the United States to-day. “There is no person happily married who says marriage is a failure,” said Prof. Barnes. “Devotion may be called slavery if you choose, but there is no man or woman who knows the blessed institution of marriage who will not say it is the enviable and desirable state of being.”
