'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.
