which stood up around the crown like
corona and formed the brim. For q
band, there was q steel buckle that
reached half way around the head,
resting Of course against velvet
bandeau. Black and white plumes,
with an intermixture of black aigrettes
formed the trimming and furnished the
necessary height. 1t Is very easy
matter to make a hat like this, and in
general 1t is inexpensive. as one usually
has feathers and aigrettes left from an
old hat. Jetted velvet is easily made,
If one has sufficient patience. Some
times one can muster a buckle that will
serve for a bandeau. but one must have
new lace, as no other has the dressing
necessary to make 1t stand out as 1t
should.
A bit of handsome passamenterie
may 9 used instead of a buckle for the
bandeau-especially on hat Of an
evening shade such as pink or yellow
velvet, but cut steel Is the most fash
ionable thing.
A steel buckle is a necessity with the
black velvet picture hat for certain
types Of face The woman with round
broad face requires a hat that sits up
high and turns away from the fore
head. 1t is a style that is quite gener-
ally becoming, and Is particularly pref
ty when worn by the woman of square
java type which is growing more and
more and more numerous in proper
ton as girls become proficient in ath-
letics. There is no argument in the
question as to whether athletics de-
velops the will power and the square
law is the physical exponent of this
quality. The golf girl. the basketball
girl and above all, the football girl, are
we'll provided with jaw, to speak rather
inelegantly: but this facial develop
ment need not be unbecoming when
properly treated. Part the hair in the
middle. curl it, and bring it down over
the temples as near the eyebrows as
possible. so as to reduce the effect OF
souareness in the upper part of the
face. Side combs will hold it in place
about the ears. Then wear picture
hat of black velvet, with large buckle
in front like the one in the illustration.
A broad. pointed Medici collar. with an
edge of soft fur, together with such
hat is we'll calculated to soften the
of football faces-a fact which
will be clearly seen by referring to the
picture of the young woman who.
whether in football costume or IN the
latest form of exquisite and dainty at
tire. is ready for any conquest. be 1t
on the athletic field or in Cupid's own
bower. This is the kind OF girl VINO
should either go to one extreme or the
other in matters of dress. She should
avoid tailor made gowns-they are TOO
severe without being actually 5aunty
In football or bicycle clothes, she may
look saucy and fresh, or in laces and
furs she may become dainty ana be-
witching. but the intermediate stages
are dangerous.
There is of course type of girl VINO
looks we'll in scarf-ties. for instance,
and they are undoubtedly stylish ana
pretty. but the square-faced girl should
avoid them as she does shirt fronts and
boomers. The Roman stripe four-in-
hand is the correct thing and when tied
1t is wrapped twice around the neck
aro then tied in front in the usual knot.
II the ends are not edged with lace,
the uppe- one is cut straight and the
under one bias-a small matter, per-
hans. but then style Is made u OF lit
tie things.
