MODERN
MANNERS
Obligations OF the Brides
Family for the Wedding
By CAROLYN HAGNER SHAW

A sure sign that spring has
arrived are the many engage
ment announcements that are
being made. Naturally this
forecasts weddings in the near
future. The first hurdle to
meet for those cast IN the un-
familiar role of planning a
wedding is the question of
"who pays for what?" There
fore, a brief outline of the
obligations of the brides fam
lily, and of the bridegroom,
would seem to be in order
The parents of the bride
assume responsibility for the
purchase of the trousseau.
This tradition comes down to
us from the olden days when
the bridegroom bought his
bride from her father. When
the bride went to the home of
her husband, custom de-
manded that she carry a
"trusse" or little bundle" with
her From this ancient system
the dowry or trousSeau idea
has come down to US.
Other Requirements
Further obligations which
the parents of the bride as
sumo are:
The engraved invitations or
announcements and their
preparation for mailing.
All. floral decorations for the
home, or church, where the
ceremony is to be held, and
the bouquets for the bridal at
tendants. 1t is not considered
incorrect for the bride to tur-
chase her own bouquet, but
usually. for sentiments sake,
the bridal flowers are paid for
by the bridegroom
They are not responsible for
the purchase of the bridal at
tendants' gowns. The bride
to-be makes the selection of
the gowns but the attendants
pay for them. The Parents. of
course. buy the customary gifts
presented to the attendants
by the bride.
Awnings for the church, the
home entrance, or wherever
the reception is to be held.

Questions and Answers

@. Is it ever proper to drop
crackers in soup instead OF
holding them in the left hand?
What is the rule on dunking ?
Mr.. J. A. c.
A. I would strongly advise
against dropping crackers in
soup. Much better to hold a
piece Of the cracker in the
hand. taking a bite between
spoonfuls of soup. AS far as
dunking is concerned, in my
opinion, this should be done
only in private. 1t is definitely
not a pleasant sight to behold.
@. Should / let my small
daughter aged 6 accept an Ing

1t is obvious that the par
