Divorce filings surge in 1919 in New York County
New York records show more than 1400 divorce cases filed in 1919, up about 50 percent from the prior year, with 1918 figures slightly lower than earlier years. County Clerk William I. Schneider will release exact totals soon. Experts attribute the rise to changing morals and crowded home life. Ex-service men lead applicants for marriage licenses, with roughly 40,000 licenses issued in 1919 versus 35,163 in 1918. A Sunday installation service for Wesley Memorial church officers is announced, with detailed lists of officers for the three adult missionary societies and a program of music by the church choir. The Sorosis club’s social at Mrs. S. L. Davis’s home features violin selections by S. L. Davis Jr. and Miss Helen Reynolds, followed by a luncheon.
