The GROTTO 764 Willamette ' 'June Bride' Is Tradition Of Old Rome WASHINGTON, D. C. The radiant June bride, leaving the church with the man of her choice is probably unaware of the part ancient Roman superstition play ed in her wedding date. June is the most popular month or weddings in North America, largely because the Romans con sidered it the most propitious sea son especially around the time of the June full moon. Home considered May bad for marriage, but the prejudice against that month has been overcome in Christian countries. In fact, May is considered the ideal marriage period in some European nations. ine Christian church helped in the selection of May or June for marriage by frowning on weddings during Lent or other periods of lasung or penitance. TODAY'S June bride can con sider herself lucky that she is be ing married in the 20th centurv instead of several hundred years earlier. The worst she has to do is dodge rice and shoes thrown in her direction. In earlier times, particularly among the Anglo-Saxons, the bridegroom was given a shoe by the bride's father to denote a tranfer in authority over the ladv. By custom the gentleman tapped or struck his wife on the head to demonstrate his mastery. Custom obliged the man tn honor his lady, but it left no doubt as to the master of the household. One old law allows the bride groom three broomstick blows on the bride's body, while another allows him to beat her with a slick no longer than his arm or thicker than his middle finger. The new wife, tossing her bou quet to waiting bridesmaids, does not know how lucky she is. The bouquet-throwing replaces garter- snatching that sometimes proved damaging. OLD FRENCH custom granted the next marrTage to the lass who made off with the bride's garter. Competition for this good luck token became fierce, and sensible brides who wished to avoid a pos sible mauling left a garter hang ing loose and easily available. Later, by prearrangement, the brides started tossing stockings to bridesmaids. It meant the same thing, but it was difficult to re- imove a stocking from a wedding costume, and the banquet became a substitute. i Gentlemen attendants in to day's wedding also are somewhat better off than those of ages past. In the days when wives were cap tured by hostile tribes or famil ies, the groomsmen had the job of warding off indignant relatives. Today the best man has little more to do than to see that the groom gets to the altar with the ring. Newlyweds of today, if funds are available, leave after the cere mony on a honeymoon a trip on which they can be alone if they wish. In the time when men grabbed their women by force it was sometimes necessary for the happy couple to hide out until Ithe bride's family stopped look ing for her.
