with but little trimming excepting hand
some bird with dark blue metallic plum
age and outSpread wings; he appears TO
have alighted on one side.
Tulle will be used extensively, and a
ruche of ii surrounds pretty toque, which
has a low pointed crown and rosettes OF
the same tulle on either side, trimmed en-
tirely with ivy and turquoise, Frenchy
com blnation of Virot's.
Hats promise to remain large; model
black chip has low fat crown, literally
trimmed with 5equinS. A large aigrette is
in front. One of the stvles that undoubt-
edly will be received with favor IS the
"Capeline." 1t has a fiat crown and fiat
brim, which extends all around, but the
trimmings give the necessary height.
Chine ribbons are being literally used as
bows and loops. One particularly good hat
of brown tone is said to positively have
dozens of loops of chine ribbon; these
form a simply enorm Gus bow, which
comes between the waved brim and the
hair. Satin cord like rouleaux are new,
and ''are introduced on tulle and as ruches
or fringes TO toques, mingling often with
rich red and rosettes of tulle and steel
a tendency TO return to the ciose-ftting
Empire style. Jet fringes are looped over
the face from the edge of the brim Of such
bCnnets, and tulle strings are tied under
the chin. Tulle string, edged with
butter lace, it will be seen, as well as
those of chine ribbon for strings, are to
return. An authority on millinery says:
The most beautiful foliage, often shot and
most curiously colored appears at the
back of bonnets and as aigrettes both to
hats and bonnets, while many of the
feather and osprey aigrettes start from
diamond ornaments. Straws pleated with
distinct points, not at all smooth, but
wide, in all colors, form the foundation
for many hats and bonnets, and hat
made in dark-red shade of this class had
bows of the fashionable MORE ribbon,
with poppies Of two tones, made in silk,
q huge sort OF butterfly bow at the back
under the brlm.
AS golf is to be the game this year, we
shall shortly hear discussed links, holes,
tees, hazards, approach shots, cleek shots,
a well-loafted mashee, brassie and iron
and perfect drive, so, girls, at once
begin to study the game, for ere long |
expect that the links and holes at the
Presidio will be in a good condition, and
as this fascinating game increases in popu-
larity we may expect to hear OF links at
Burlingame and Berkeley. AS far as golf
costumes are concerned they are varied,
but at this time of the year brown linen or
mohair skirts will give good satisfaction.
The skirt must not extend further than
the shoetoDs, and tan leggings are much
worn. a stylish woman wore last autumn
a golhng costume consisting OF a dark-blue
skirt, white shirt black shoes, tan ieggings,
a dark blue necktie tied IN bow and a
white sailor hat with ribbon matching
her tie. Her belt was of white kid. Nor
folk jackets are much worn also, but are
too warm for comfort in this climate.
One is very chic, made of bright red cloth,
with black collar and cuffs and gilt but
tons and buckle. A swell cape is COM
posed of brown cloth lined with a bright
cloth. Skirts of covert cloth can be worn.
The belts are always of kid or leather. A
knitted jersey goes well with covert
cloth skirt, red and black one being eff
fective.
Not only is golf very healthful game,
but it is also said to greatly improve the
figure, which is a strong recommendation
for most women.
The bicycle will continue in vogue and
women who wish to be appropriately
turned out will dress simply and quietly
