Those pledged were Donald Don't Know What to Give The Bride? Call The Local Gift Shop By JIM BAIRD The society page of the UDK has announced that Susie Q has finally caught Joe D. ___ One of Susie's first considerations is going to be how to handle a barrage of showers. Now showers, in the modern tradition, are progressively less and less like a shower and more and more like a hailstorm. Gifts of all sizes, shapes, classifications and descriptions will soon begin descending on her poor, defenseless head—gifts of varying degrees of disutility, all designed to help her "set up housekeeping." At least that is the fond hope of those who have been "invited" to contribute. Enterprising businessmen have capitalized on this. One of the most outstanding examples of this branch of their services is to be seen in the Marshall Field organization in Chicago. The idea, of course, is to sell merchandise, but the service rendered by the Chicago department store actually extends beyond a pure mercenary interest in the girl. Marshall Field maintains a separate department in their store as a "bride department," with a full time bridal consultant who will advise a girl on everything from the original stages of the engagement to the return from Niagara Falls. They begin by taking an inventory of the things she has accumulated in her hope chest, and continue by recording all purchases made for each bride in the Marshall Field stores. Thus, anyone who gets Raidt, Gerald Reiser, Andrew Kalan, and Jon Baker, college freshmen, and Ronald Salyer and Kenneth Plumb, Jr., college sophomores. invited to a premarital function may call the store, find out what patterns of silver, crystal, and china, what types of linens, furnishings, everything, the prospective bride is planning to include in her future home. Certain stores in Kansas City offer a modified version of this type of service. For instance, the Harzfield stores keep a card file on each bride, with a complete list of purchases made for her in that store, and also make suggestions to purchasers regarding what she would like. In Lawrence, the problem is somewhat different. As a small town, it is less difficult to keep tab on purchases made for each busier and it is done at Weavers as a matter of routine, says L. S. Flannery, advertising manager of the Weaver department store. Mrs. Martin Jost, of Vickers gift shop, registers each bride announced in Lawrence and keeps a record of purchases made for her. Other stores do the same. The moral of this story—if you get a little card in the mail soon saving something like "You are invited to a shower for . . ." you can save some time and make your gifts more welcomed by checking with some of the downtown merchants. They probably already know what she needs and wants. North College hall announces the pinning of Frances Marshall, college freshman, to Bob Kobler, college senior.
