Spotlight Is
Now Shifted
To Bridegroom
By Hob I.awler
WAR wedding,. which have filled the
yawiUnff gap caused by the war in
things nodal, have also changed the
proverbial status of public regard con
cerning thHe most interesting functions.
The bridegroom now takes center stage.
A new and most important place is
given him In the observations of the as
sembled guests, quite a neck to neck
race with the length of the bride's train,
the "rare old lace" or "the veil her
grandmother wore." The New York
Kvenlng Post makes the following in
teresting comment on this startling new
phase of the subject:
With all the bride's relatives weep
ing over hH anticipated demise, it Is
wonderful that, the bridegroom at the
war wedding bears up as well as he
does. Perhaps he Is upheld by the
.knowledge that the bridegroom is now,
as never before, the center of attention,
Where once they whispered. "No mat
ter if he does look Inane ; every one will
be staring at the bride," they say to
day, "Who would have supposed Willie
would turn out to be so handsome in
his new uniform?" Huch a reversal of
roles Is worthy of an article by Mr.
Rhonts. Is it the war spirit, or what,
that has driven the bride's gown into
obscurity? The local paper no longer
expatiates on "th- bride's veil. Which
her great grandmother's aunt wore dur
ing the Revolution." but devotes a whole
' society note to .an account of Lieuten
ant Jones' activities at camp, his fight
ing ancestor and' the probability or
his return as a colonel.
, At small and informal knitting
party Tuesday given by Miss Patsey
Stewart, she announced her approaching
marriage next week to Lieutenant Ralph
