Miss Stroud Of Joanna Is Bride Of Mr. Grant JANET GARDNER Registered Bridal Consultant Dillard Boland, Jeweler 103 E. Pitts St. Telephone 833-1028 It has always been held pro- oer for the "man" to use every iggressive, or subtly aggressive, tactic at his command to win his “bride*. Today, we politely call his fierce competitors "eligible bachelors’. And the woman? Well, straw-skirted or pant- alooned, she has always con sidered this “fight* for her a compliment. In Tasmanian or plain English -- “may the best man win*. Marriage by capture in primi tive societies was imperative as they held the belief that mar riage within the tribe was taboo. To get a bride, they were forced to raid their neighbor tribe, usu- jally hostile. On the man’s part, ithis took wits and courage and iwas rightly considered a feat of strength. The women have their side, too. Authorities believe that there was a so-called "pairing-ofT season, possibly June, and that some women made it a point to stray from the safety of the tribal confine for the very spe cific purpose of “being carried off*. The admiration of manly strength and prowess has never been untended. Today, as in pri mitive t&nes, food, shelter and the protection of wife and child depend Bpon the man’s keeness of eyw'pnd his stamina to do battle with life as be finds it 4 >5 - f BoUnd, Jeweler is not n’s world — but a «prld too.
