Seniors Make Foolish Marriages, Judge Says
| “A Pathetic Scene on the Nineteenth,” by Clare Briggs |
| Nov. 22, 1919: A judge trying a divorce case between a 55-year-old woman and her 67-year-old husband says: "I wish you would keep your old folks down in Long Beach from making foolish marriages." "It can't be done, your honor, as long as we have parks and the Pike," the attorney replies. |
