INVITATIONS

And I'll request your presence.-Shake-
speare.
HERE is a nice little problem in
l. a. etiquette that may perplex some
of the brides who are making plans for
spring weddings.
Suppose, for instance, that woman
of mature years and independent
position in life who possessed no near
relatives Is about to be married, and
suppose because of the fact that she
is without family ties she herself must
make all those arrangements for the
wedding that would usually devolve
upon the brides mother or aunt or
other woman relative. 1t may be that
she is to be married at church and
that she wants to invite her friends
and her husband-elect's friends to the
ceremony and to wedding breakfast
or supper following the ceremony at
her own home where she has lived
with no other companion save an old
and trusted servant, or it may be that
she and her bridegroom want TO en-
terrain their small wedding party at a
hotel wedding breakfast following the
ceremony. Who then should send out
the invitations?

feminine names have been derived
from this root and the same word has
supplied surnames without number.
1t is believed, therefore, that the
noted old gems Lucretius, from which
Lucretia is directly descended, was
only another of the derivatives of lux.
"Lucrece, combing the fleece under
the midnight lamp the famous old
Roman tale, inspired Shakespeare to
write one of his earliest poems.
France has a Lucrece which is pop
ular, and England imported Lucretia
In the Eighteenth century.
Lucretia's talismanic stone Is the
red-hearted ruby. 1t has the power to
bring her strength of body, an In
vincible spirit and success in every
undertaking. Tuesday is her lucky

LUCRETIA

HOUGH Lucretia was the name
= borne by the notorious daughter
of the Borgia, it is one of the quaint
est and most old-fashioned of names
in this country. 1t is far cry from
ancient Rome to modern New Eng
land, but the name has completed the
transition with very few changes to
mark the stages of its evolution.
There are two theories among ety.
mOlogists in regard to the original
source of Lucretia. Some contend that
it comes from the Latin word lucrum,
meaning gain" and, for that reason,
Lucretia is said to signify gain. On
the other hand, there is much evidence
to prove that it's real source was in
the Latil word for light, lux. Many

The Right Thing
at the Right Time
By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE

The old time idea was that woman
should never send out her own we'd
ding invitations even though she had
been married before and really pos
sessed no one who stood to her in the
place of a parent or guardian. But
good usage now permits a woman to
issue her own wedding invitations when
there is no one who would convent
emily do this for her. To be sure, q
young woman would seldom do this.
but the privilege is not restricted to
women who have been married before.
However, when this is done the bride
does not have the invitations worded
thus: Miss June Smith requests the
honor of your presence at her mar
rage to Mr.. John Brown, but instead
she uses this wording: 1.-THE honor
of your presence is requested at the
marriage of Miss Jane Smith to
Mr.. John Brown on the afternoon, ETC."
In the event that the bride has both
or either parents, their names would
most emphatically be used either in
the invitations or announcement of a
IL IL UIIuC Is IIlOLu0FIcSS,
then the invitations or announcements
are sent out in the name of the father.
However. If motherless bride is to
be married at the home of an aunt, then
the invitations are sent out in the
name of the aunt and her husband.
1t would be perfectly correct for a
father if he had no convenient home
of his own, to have his daughter mar
ried from sisters home, when the
invitations would run
