cMICAGO- Marriage courts . should be abolished, Chief Justice Harry Olson of
municipal court here declared
Saturday mgnt.
"A court marriage, although
Christian, does not carry the
lame solemnity a church m ar�
riage does," Judge Olton said.
'A church marriage it more im �
pressive and conveye better ideas
pf the sacredness of the bond."
Judge Olton said a majority
of those asking d ivorctt were
married in courts. This, he said,
was partly due to the fact that
the couples did not realize the
solemnity and sacredness of th#
marriage.
The Rev. J. P. Brushingham, a
Methodist minuter, said mar-
'?age by a judge is legal but ie
not considered Christian in the
�yee of the church.
"Certain churches," Dr. Brush-
ingham said, "do not evan recog�
nize a court marriage."
