gagements. In the Eastern States, where
it has become the recognized fashion TO
formally announce the assumption of these
happX ties, too much is often made OF mere
rumors. The wisdom and eXped!ency of an
authoritative announcement as soon as pos
sible is, of course. admitted. But the young
folks should be allowed ample time TO
arrange matters themselves, and then the
congratulations of friends follow naturally
and agrceably. Parents and chaperones
understand this and the matter can usually
be safely left with them. The announce
ment in this column guards against mis-
takes in the future and prepares friends for
an appropriate recognition of an important
event. Such a summer as we are enjoying
this year must be held responsible for
numerous announcements Of this nature
