[une Still Favored by Brides miMfe

Mo't traditions have taken a fearful tumble in these modern days of s keptici.-m but June still holds its place as the favored month on tlle marriage calendar. The preference of brides for June traces ■b'If back to ancient Roman days when the month was popul.nly Opposed to be propitious for weddings. Scores of other customs (onnected with marriage own their origins to medieval and ancient CUst om*. The "best man’’ once functioned as a "bodyguard” to the tmoom when he went to get his bride. The veil is a hangover from 'he day, when it was considered immodest for the groom to see his hiide’s face before the ceremonies were completed. And the custom 81 "giving away” the bride is derived from the ancient practice nf bartering and selling the prospective wives!

One of the perennial mysteries of Hollywood is the manner in which “unknowns" skyrocket to fame overnight and established stars tumble to oblivion almost as suddenly. Even those riding the crest of the wave have no assurance that their place in the sun will not ho eclipsed by some unforeseen factor. Maurice Chevalier, Diana Wynward. Ruth Chattcrton and Anna Sten. are some who have up-and-down careers. And despite the occasional success of an extra, only a few of the thousands who seek cinema fame ever lenlize their ambition. Apparently there is no way of foretelling the shifting fortunes common to screen careers, since public favor is »uch an uncertain quantity and the factors determining popularity are of such vague nature.
