WHERE BRIDES
ARE BOUGHT

WyHEY say that daughters are
not welcome arrivals in a
Japanese family. For the daugh-
s ter must have q dowry when she
grows up and she must be sup
ported, while her brothers are q
source OF income to the family.
But in the island Of Samoa
things are otherwise arranged.
There the birth Of a daughter Is
the signal for rejoicing, for the
more daughters a father has the
weather viii he be in his old age.
He does not have to worry
about providing & dowry for his
riageable age. Rather, he will
have to provide his sons with the
price Of a bride.
OF course. the purchasing OF q
bride is not a matter OF buying
and selling. like the exchange 0f
products. The prospective groom
does not approach the father OF
the girl OF his choice and say, II
daughter. He sends his most
trusted servant or his father In
charge Of a gift-bearing retinue
~ lftS IOLtlG. VI MS CttOSE1s DFlQEs
The gifts may consist Of live
stock. OF jewels, Of grain or OF
gold. It may consist OF all these
things. Whatever may be the
actual components of the gift Il
is sufficiently valuable to be q
severe tax on the wealth Of the
sutton.
II the girls father approves Of
the match he VIII accept the
gifts; otherwise he must refuse
them. II he accepts them the
retinue Of servants and the
groom's father, X he has come,
too. make merry at the home Of
the bride-to-be. They may make
quite q visit there before return
Ing to give the word Of his sue
cess TO the eager sutton.
Thus 1t is that the Samoan
father looks forward to the ad.
vent Of many daughters, for they
VIII not only be the pride and
joy Of his household, but source
of comfort and wealth to him in
his advanced years.
This custom may seem mercen-
airy to us, but to the Samoan II
Is merely the thing to do. And
IL we look at the matter without
bias we can readily see that 1t
IL no more nlercenary than the
custom of providing the bride
with a dowry that she may bring
her husband.

OLD FRIEND
TAFFETA
Alice LangeIier-
International News Service Staff
Correspondent

PARIS.
THAT taffetas will be one of the
4 most popular fabrics for
spring and summer wear, is be-
coming more and more apparent
after thorough look at the smart
collections now being shown in
Paris.
It is the old friend taffeta in
q new guise, as soft and easily
managed as any shimmering crepe
or satin, for the fabric-makers
have been doctoring it up as
they did velvet last year. There
is no stiffness left and practically
no rustic. If grandmother wishes
to make a stir when she takes
her place in the Sunday pew, she
will have to choose another ma
terial for her go-to-meeting frock.
Patou is using it for afternoon
dresses, tailleurs even, but not for
evening, since it entails a GER
tain business. One model in
black has trimmings of little
pleated ruffles all over the skirt
and another in changeable blue
and green has tight bodice with
tiny buttons down the back.
A wearabIe ensemble in taffetas
is made with a short coat with
escalloped edges lined with rose in
the same tone as the georgette
frock on which appear scallops of
taffetas designed to match those
on the coat.
''Dodges" Is a striking taffeta
evening cape in bright red and
topped off by a great fur collar.
A one.piece frock which is very
easy TO wear comes in parma vio-
let with the trimmings of bonds
and embroidery in rose and gold.
Another delightful model from
Annals Is in mauve taffeta with
silver bands.
Navy blue taffetas are certain
to be popular and are usually en-
livened by bit of silver piping
or colored embroidery Worked
taffeta bands are beautifully EN-
ployed on a. gray,green chiffon
cape with . frock in the same
tone.
