Undoubtedly this will be notable
year for marrying. More engagements
have been announced and more we'd
dngs will be celebrated than during
any season of the last decade. Nc
special reason has been given by those
most concerned, save the usual one
that theses affairs which have so hap
PLY eliminated have been maturing
all these barren years. That might be-
acceptable if it were not for the fac
that in most instances it is the un
expected that has happened. Various
are the excuses and innumerable thu
explanations of recent engagements
just as though excuse and explanation
was essential.
