COURIER VITAL STATISTICS FOR YEAR 1930 Register of Deeds Releases Fig ures on Births, Deaths and Marriages in County. Rutherfordton, March 9. —The number of marriages in the coun ty during the year 1930 was con siderably less than in former years. This falling off was due in part to hard times and also to the new l-.VvV governing marriages in the state. Not every young man can buy a license and the health certificate. The law requires the health certificate from the doctor, which if. enforced is a very fine law. License cost five dollars and the health certificate is two, added to this a new suit and other expenses of getting married, and the business of Dan Cupid slumps. Another reason for the scar city of the marriage license is that the laws of South Carolina are much more lenient toward the marriage inclined than ours so all the "Par son Seekers" have to do is to drive a few miles across the line. There were only seventy-three marriage* during 1930. Births during the year in Colfax Township were 97, Deaths 25. High Shoals, births 230, deaths 106. Logan's Store, births, 67, deaths 23. Gilkey, births 15, deaths 6. Morgan, births 21, deaths 7. Sulphur Springs, births 36, deaths 18. Chimney Rock, births 34, deaths 15. Duncan's Creek, births 34. deaths 8. Golden Valley births, 17 deaths 10. Cocl Springs, births 113, death; 36. Forest City births 133, deaths 36. Union, births 20, deaths 82. Rutherfordton Township, births 195, deaths 70. City of Rutherfordton, births 56 deaths 82. There were in the city 26 more deaths than births, but this was bal anced by there being 125 more births than deaths in the township. Forest City had 97 more births than deaths. In the High Shoals Township there occured 124 more births than deaths.
