ENGLISH GIRLS TURN
TO LESS ELABORATE
MARRIAGE CEREMONIES

LONDON, Oct. 30.-Old fashioned
weddings at church with lavish decora-
lions, gaily bedecked brides and
bridesmaids, bell ringing and elaborate
ceremonies, are gradually giving way
TO more sombre and quicker weddings
at registry offices.
Statistics show that 25 percent of
the total marriages in this country dur
ing the year have been performed at
registry offices. In London alone OF
$4,000 marriages, $4,000 were conduct
ed by the registrar, and throughout
the country the number of civil cere-
monies has grown from 10000 in 1890
to three times that number.
Among many reasons given for IA
voring the civil marriage is the desire
to avoid publicity by contracting par
ties. particularly in the cases of dukes,
peers. theatrical stars and other
prominent persons when remarrying.
English brides of the past genera
ton would have been aghast at the
thought of marrying without the pro-
verbal orange blossom wreath and the
retinue of bridesmaids, but broaden
ing ideas developed by the present day
girl make her prefer the simple cere-
mony without the "fussiness" of the
big church service and the army of
spectators.
