NOT so very long ago, the engagement was an essential part of the business of getting married. It was a formal, bind ing arrangement that was difficult to break. Court action for "breach of promise" was frequently taken by an aggrieved partner against the one who
broke off the relationship. Earlier on in the century, the engagement
was marked by a formal ceremony and announcement, and often by the signing of a marriage agreement setting down what each side was bringing to the marriage in terms of goods, chattels, land, built property and hard cash.' Breaking off an engagement was a ponder
standard announcement. The classified adver-. tisement department will be happy to help. . • i An engagement ring is an exciting part of an
engagement. In the past the bridegroom-to-be would present it to his chosen bride as part of his formal proposal. Today, however, couples usual ly choose the ring together, either before or after telling their parents of their plans. Marking the engagement with a party or din

ter that is not obligatory, and some couples even fail to become engaged. In the old days, the bridegroom-to-be would
ask permission of the girl's father to offer her marriage. Today, girls are far too independent to allow their parents much of a say in their choice of marriage partner. The interview with the bride's father, although still on the cards, is a much less formal affair which serves to help develop the father/son-in-law relation ship.
< One thing is certain, however. Regardless of
whether the bride's father is consulted or not, it is essential for the sake of courtesy that both sets of parents are the first to hear the news, which should, as far as possible, be given in person by the couple themselves. Having told the parents, the engagement
may be announced more publicly in the local press. The advertisement is usually placed by the bride's parents and takes the form of a
