The marriage rate in the United States is declining, al
though this seems hard to believe after a glance through the
society section of today's Tribune. Anyhow, the Statistical
Bulletin of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company says
that there were 1,521,000 weddings in the United States dur
ing 1957, or 64,000 fewer than in 1956.
Thf Bulletin Doints out that the marriage rate last year
8 9 per 1,000 population (including the Armed Forces over
ooa was about five per cent below the rate of 9.4 per 1,000
ror-nrHPfl in 1956. and the lowest since 1933.
In Arizona, where a pre-marital blood test and a waiting
v,c ko,n onfnrrpH since December of 1956, and in
Mow MoYirn. where a nre-marital blood test law became ef
fective in 1957, there were sharp decreases. However, the
neighboring states of Colorado, Nevada and California show
ed increase, and it is also believed that an increasing number
of U.S. citizens are crossing the "border into old Mexico to
Va marripH.
Brides are generally younger today, according to a study
by the Survey Research Center of the University of Michi
gan, but they take life more seriously. . '
Today's typical bride, says the Center, is about 20 years
old, and her bridegroom is 23. in spue oi tneir youin, more
couples now. start life insurance programs Deiore mdnidge,
the survey reported.
So far this season the society reporters of The Mail Trib
une have had no stories of weddings where the brides wore
tv.a nhpmisp dress, but several mothers have chosen
sacks or chemises. If the fad does spread to wedding gowns:
manv a bride will be able to take her mother's wedding dress,
worn in the Twenties, out of mothballs and doh it for the
march down the aisle. Somehow, we can't imagine writing
"the bride wore a white satin sack.
Wedding gowns, like any other garment, come in a varie
ty of prices. So do veils and other bridal foofaraw. A recent
advertisement of B. Altman ana company in me mew iuis
Times listed laces of ' "legendary beauty to make our mag
nificent wedding veils." The laces were of blends of rose
nnint int H'AnfTleterre and noint a l'aiguille, "all created
a quarter-century ago in Belgium where needlework is one
of the finer arts." One was priced at $3,500; another at
$5,000 and three mantilla-type short veils were "priced at
S475. S500 and $595.
Of "special interest" said the advertisement, is "one linen
point d'Angleterre and rose point bridal handkerchief at
$125." Of very special interest, yes. ,
.
Conventions are usually a headache for a newspaper,
but Mrs. James Redman1, Portland, the PEO convention re
nnrfpr and Pntnourri cot alons fine. We were a guest of
Mrs. Redman for luncheon Monday and the group within
"talking distance" had a real friendly time. We all admired
the beautiful roses which E.'E. Vehrs, Grants Pass roseman,
had sent over, and we also investigated the holders which
someone said were of a material called "oasis." It looks like
green plastic foam, but is finer textured and retains mois
ture. Very handy stuff for table decorations.
Somehow or other the conversation turned to wedding
anniversaries and Mrs. Redman related how she and Mr. R.
had celebrated a special one not long ago. Since they had
taken a plane trip for their honeymoon, a novelty at the
time, they decided to arrange an anniversary plane journey.
In the meantime, however, some friends planned a party
which they could not miss. The friends lived in the country
near Portland, and this gave Mr. Redman a bright idea. He
hired a helicopter, and on the evening of the party the
'copter pilot delivered the Redmans at the party, setting the
whirly bird smartly down practically in the middle of the
surprised guests gathered in the garden. Mrs. Redman wore
her wedding gown of the Twenties vintage, and she and her
husband created a sensation.
i
Caesar Muzzioli and Mrs. M. came back from Portland
the first of the week in a very happy mood. Mr. Muzzioli's
accordion pupils had won so many prizes in competition
with hundreds of other students from all over the Northwest
that the teacher was practically walking on air. Actually, he
was driving a new car which he hadn't planned to buy at all.
But the Muzzioli's small son, who ftad been playing with the
key of the car they drove to Portland, lost it so thoroughly
it was never recovered. After several frantic hours, the car
was towed into a garage where the Medford couple -saw a
new automobile and bought it.
Many heirloom articles were used for the wedding of
Phyllis Jean Taylor and Richard Karl Gustafson on June 7,
but one new article was a tablecloth from France. The cloth,
used for the reception refreshment table, was sent to the
Taylors when Jean Lelut, farm exchange student from
France, was living in their home-and was a gift from the
young man's parents. The French family arranged for flow
ers to be sent to the bride, which pleased the Taylors very
much.
Jean Lelut, now jn the French army and stationed on the
island of Martinique, recently wrote to the Central Point
family andthe letter came Friday. Mrs. Taylor said the
young Frenchman sounded very lonely, and she believes he
would be pleased to receive letters from valley friends. His
address is Jean Lelut, Service Social, De L'Armee Quartier
Galliene, Fort De France, Martinique.
He explained conditions in Martinique thusly: Everyone
is either very rich, very poor or in the army.

Caution
Urged For
New Styles ;
By gay pauley'
UPI Women's Editor
New York (UPI) Around
Manhattan:
Observant male in our of?
fice loosed a bitter tirade
against us girls and fashions
the other day.
"Why do
they have to
try every
thing new at
once?" he com
plained.
"I saw a girl
on Fifth Ave
nue today,
dressed in one
y rauiey o ose exag
gerated chemises. . .you know
the kind I mean, the ones that
hobble the derriere."
"She had her hair in one
of those new sheep-dog cuts,"
said our man, warming to the
subject. "She was wearing a
headache band and I ve yet
to see anybody besides a mod
el look good in one of those.
She wore stockings to
match her dress. The whole
costume was corpse green.
And she was dumpy. I
thought great scott, she looks
as though she is on her way
to a costume party.
"Honest now. Why does a
woman put ALL that's new
in fashion on at once?"
Maybe our man has some
thing there. Maybe a basic
rule of the well-dressed wom
an needs repeating: Try the
new, only when it becomes
you.
"Be not the first by whom
the new is tried,
"Nor yet the last to lay the
old aside."
It'll be interesting to see
just how women take to- a
'segregation" idea advanced
this week by Herman T. Stich
man, of the Hudson-Manhat
tan railroad.
Stichman' plans to install
for ladies only" cars, in soft
shades of pink and grey, on
the commuter trains running
between Newark,' N. J., and
New York City.
"Some of the railroads
have the men's club cars,"
said Stichman. "One airline
has special flights for male
executives only. I think it's
high time somebody gave a
little attention to the comfort
of the ladies.
"I think some of the wives
will be happy to be away
from husbands for a while."
Designer Says
Most Men Like
Homey Hotels
By MARY PRIME
United Press International
New York (UPI) Men
want the home-sweet-home at
mosnhere around them even
when they're away from
home.
That's whv Arthur Finn, an
interior designer, never cre
ates a masculine atmosphere
when decorating rooms for 11
hotels owned by the Manger
chain.
He decorates two or three
houses a year ("only ones I'm
very interested in personal
ly"), has done private yachts
and an ocean liner ,ana is
starting work on 100,000
square feet of offices in a nu
clear research laboratory.
To make hotel rooms
homey, Finn sticks to the
standard exDosure rule cool
colors for southern exposures
and warm colors for rooms
with northern windows.
He favors walnut formica
furniture because it is "warm,
clean and fresh," and uses
woven fabrics instead of
plush "which" looks like it
harbors dirt."
Low. curved lobby desks
also helr make guests feel at
home because the desks seem
to reach out and welcome the
Dersons. Finn said. He be
lieves the old-fashioned high
desk was a barrier between
clerk and guest.
Men are more concerned
with cleanliness and conveni
ence than service, he added.
'Men don't mind some things
for themselves. For instance,
they don't want a room to
look like a bedroom, so
they're willing to pull out the
studio bed at night." -
Other features geared for
men's likes include good shav
ing lights and outlets, plenty
of large towels, terry cloth
robes and phones in bath-
I asked him if he realized
that feminine nature being
what it is, he might be head
ing for trouble; that some of
the claws might come un
sheathed.
"Not worried at all," said
Stichman. "I have a higher
opinion of the feminine sex
than you do."
The special cars will be in
stalled July 1, he said, and
all will be air - conditioned.
But," said Stichman, "the
women don't HAVE to ride
the special cars. They can
ride with the men, if they
want."

Superintendent Has
Advice for Parents
Tullahoma, Tenn. (UPI)
A woman' who should know
says there are no "problem
children," just children with
problems.
Miss Nell Farrar retired re
cently after 24 years as super
intendent of the state "voca
tional training school for girls
here. She saw an awful lot of
"problem children" come and
go during those years.
Miss Farrar said most of
the girls who passed through
the school would not have
been there if their parents had
paid them more attention.
Her advice to parents is to
stay home more with the chil
dren, take part inall activ
ities which concern the chil
dren, such as school and
church, know where the chil
dren are and the company
they keep.
