Is Problem
By MurieI Nissen

DEAR MISS NISSEN: After
two-year engagement. am mar
rying Jerry in August. My par
ents can't give me a very ex-
pensive wedding, but they do
want everything to be as nice as
possible. Well be married in
church at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing. and I'll have a white gown.
veil, bridesmaids, etc. Now to
the dilemma. We could have
small reception for the immedi-
ate family only, or a larger one
for some rs people. In the latter
case there will, of necessity, be
friends who can't be invited. How
can we avoid having their feel
ingS hurt?
DOLORES D.
ANSWER: With the season OF
weddings approaching, your let
ter paves the way for a bit OF
advice, not so much to you, as
to the myriads of friends who
must "of necessity" be excluded
from receptions. Your own prob
lem has a very good solution
in the small reception you men
ton. But If your friends will
heed my little homily, you could
go ahead with your larger party,
confident that others will under
stand and appreciate your posi-
ton.
Very few bridal parties can
include all the friends and rela-
tives whom the young people,
and their parents, would like to
invite. With the rapid passing
of spacious private homes that
could easily and comfortably
accommodate a throng of we'll
wishers, wedding receptions
have pretty we'll been pushed
into restaurants, hotels, and re-
ception halls. The result is that
even a small wedding reception
is expensive, and while there
are those who don't have to
consider the expense of such an
important occasion, practically
must enter into the picture
sometime. It's a. very foolish
thing to 60 into heavy debt to
launch a bride.
Furthermore, many young
couples start out today with little
money behind them. The young
man is probably just out of serv-
ice and has little opportunity to
slash away the nest egg that was
once de rigueur before marriage.
Consequently. a little financial
aid from parents is often pre-
ferred to a lavish wedding recep-
ton. So, friends or distant rela-
tiveS who haven't been invited to
q reception should hold no ram
cor. No personal slight is in
tended: none should be inferred.
Do give the young couple your
blessing, assuring them of your
good will without q teary, well,
I do think I should have been
invited" Good sportsmanship,
. you know, has a value in every
walk of life, in every situation.
Be sure to show you have 1t.

The forgotten women of

women who wear larger sizes.
Age has nothing to do with
this. It's primarily a question of
height and weight distribution.

there were not enough good
