No |H matter whether it is large small, simple or elaborate, theirs, and it is the best, Small apartments are usually the first place chosen by newly- weds today, partly because of the eost of furnishing a larger home, and partly because so many young brides keep their jobs after mar- riage, and cannot look after a large place properly. The hicky ones who can start out in 2 new house almost always choose a one-floor plan, compact, eonvenient, and bright. Furnishing a small apartment has its difficulties, for the couple looks forward to the day when they can build or buy their house, and want to choose furniture that will be useful in it as well as the apartment The modern combination is ideal for small quarters, because {it provides sleeping space if there are guests to stay overnight. Unlike the older types, these can hardly be distin- guished from ordinary chester- fields A four-in-one. buy is a coffee § table, extra seating space for guests, a low buffet table or a good - looking base for cases. A small chest converts into a table and two stools double as chair-side tables. They stack neatly like nests of tables already familiar as space savers.

A conservative style won't give away her "date." The traditional idea that a bride is necessary, according to your particular mode of life, and ac- cording to the place you have chosen for your honeymoon. if a business woman plans to continue working after her mar- riage, she will need clothes she can wear to the office or perhaps the schoolroom. The woman who {will take on housekeeping as a full - time career needs to think a little. more about comfortable] eloihes to do her housework in. A cotton housecoat is a valuable investment, too. It can be frilly, yet practical too, for it will take to the washing - machine without causing any worries about its wearing qualities.

Nowadays, all the best man has to do is nursemaid the groom into proper clothing, soothe his last- minute fears, and see that he gets to the church in time -- and with the ring. In the old days he was often expected to stave off angry relatives while the groom was busy stealing the bride. Best men were occasionally trampled to death.

There was a time: not so long ago, when he also had to distribute "favors" to all the guests as well, It used to be that newlyweds were always showered after the ceremony with rice, which was a symbol of fertility of the new union. Many will remember how | the rice stung when it hit. Well, | confetti has been substituted. It's pretty messy, but it has no sting. Have you ever wondered why the cars in a wedding party go around making so rhuch noise {with their horns? The noise is supposed to drive away evil spir- its, which are assumed to be sen- | posed to be frightened of steel The old shoes tled to the rear ged bumper? They're meant to indi cate a change of authority from father to husband. Even the wedding reception is traditional, even though much of the meaning seems to have been los' through the ages. It seems in some places that only by eating and drinking together are the new- lyweds truly married. The business some folks insist mn, of keeping the honeymoon site a secret, is a relic of the days when you stole your bride and hid her from a vengeful fam- ily. When you raised enough mon- ey to negotiate a purchase from the family, or when the family got over being angry, you came out of hiding. Carrying the bride across the threshold? That's also a reminder of Juarsiage by capture, It also has something to do with the evil spirits that used to congregate at weddings. They were supposed to lurk at the threshold. For the groom to stumble was the 'bad- dest' of bad luck. LONG ENGAGEMENT When this problem arises, there are good arguments pro and con.
