Just because the etiquette books say the bride's f imily pavs for the wedding, the groom's family needn't be have like hogs and pay off all their social obligations at mv expense. The etiquette books don't cover that angle. We like our prospective son-in-law very much and we'd like to be friends with his family, too. All we ask is that tlicv be considerate. If Mr. R. were paying, how many of those 100 couples would be invite at $20 a couple? Mr. A. R. - As an already ' Droken-in" in-law, I'm in a position to offer Mr. Y. one basic tip: In-laws must be friends. Nothing's worth gel- Just let them calm down. ! Whatever they wish, we can cooperate. But Mr. F. acts as though just because we'll be in-laws, we'll be enemies. Th Council: In our culture we haven't yet gotten around to working on the buttering up of the parents nf the af fianced, in the interest of family solidarity. We don't even have a word In the Eng lish language to designate the future relationship of Mr. F. to Mr. R. We're told that such a term does exist in Spanish and in Yiddish - a word de noting "related by marriage." And since it's a necessarily close bond, one In which these two men will share the same grandchildren, we trust that they'll see themselves on the same side rather than opposite ones, of the family fence. Perhaps it's fortunate that each dad has been able to speak his mind so early in the deal. At this point the par ents of the couple are still merely ''symbols." figures in the family background. As they emerge through the years and shape up as round ed human beings, they can be come friends to each other in their own right. As Mr. R. says, the matter of the invitation list can be adjusted. He isn't adamant and considers himself misjudg ed, whereas Mr. F. feels him self "put upon" as the fall guy in the marriage. Since we're certain that this particular grievance will be settled pleasantly, now that it's honestly aired, we'd like to use our space to describe a wedding we've heard about. It i may gave these people a clear view of what they can mean j to each other. i After the prescribed ritual, (he officiant said. 'This hus-'1 band and wife and their par-' cuts desire to give visible ex pression of their purpose to support and sustain each other." He then asked that all six principals join hands as a pledge, and he recited, "I now pronounce you a new family. Your unity will be established as you show each other for- j bearance and understanding, I and offer appreciation and so-! lace in good times and bad. This innovation was de scribed by the bride's father. Dr. Lester A. Kirkcndall, Pro fessor of Family Life at Ore gon Slate University. FRANCHISE OFFER f MAGIC FINGERS, INC.
