11nery Department, Returns From
lions I'm Hats - Many of These
Were Admired at the First Day
of the Fall Opening Yesterday.
Miss Maynard, Of Manufacturers
millinery department, has returned
from her usual fall trip to Europe, and
has brought with her all the very new
est and dressiest ideas in up-to-date
head dress.
Yesterday was the first day of Mann
heimers' fall opening, and the attract
lively arranged rooms on the third floor
or the great store were thronged all
day with women interested in the sea-
sons novelties. In regard to fall and
winter hats Miss Maynard says:
Il saw no turbans in Paris. All the
hats are worn way back on the head,
back of the pompadour. There is g.
great change in hats this season. Felts
are good trimmed with velvet. Little
braid is used, the braided hats, so pop
ular last year, having gone out.
THE national hues are worn a great
deal, no doubt owing to the war. Gar
net shades are good, but greens are
out. The correct small hat is the
Cyrano de Bergerac. Ostrich plumes
and fancy feathers are very popular,
among the last named being the Guinea
hens feathers. Conley hats are good
for travelling, and come in browns, with
neat trimming of linen and feathers.
Polka dots are favored in velvets
and all kinds Of largeheaded pins in
jet, rhinestOnes and steel are used,
making effective trimming for velvet
hats. Toques are good, and small hats
to be worn back of the pompadOur.
We have a nice line of English walking
hats this year. Here is one Of the new
large hats" she continued, holding up
stunning creation in black
"This has a tam crown of black vel
vet, with white polka dots. The rim
is faced with shirred white taffeta, with
large white bow caught underneath
one side. Two black and one white
plumes are used, with a handsome jet
and chenille bow for trimming and a
large ball pin of brilliants.
Here is picture hat made Of bands
of ostrich feathers, with shirred crown.
Four plumes and tucked chiffon COM
pose the trimming and a handsome
rhinestone dagger. Picture hate will
be popular as ever"
The display is a handsome one, and
the hats shown are better calculated
to please women of taste than in for
mer seasons.
A hat which is very French and al
most startling in it's radiant color is Of
coral velvet, with shocked crown. A
jet crescent and long black aigrette
form the orly contrast.
Another very Frenchy hat made by
Esther Bayer in Paris was a seemingly
impossible combination of brown, gar
net and coral pink velvet and plumes.
The effect of the clever combination
was very pretty and decidedly chic.
This coral pink is one of the new
colors and Is lovely in the mirror vel
vets.
A very pretty little pompadour hat is
made of turquoise blue mirror velvet
and jet. For certain type Of beauty
it would be lovely.
lovely hat for a miss Is a big,
round, soft hat, of olive green velvet.
The brim is box plated and the crown
a tam. The Tapping brim is effec-
lively faced with white Paris muslin,
and appliqued all over the green velvet
are Louis XIV. bows Of lace. Two
white tips finish the pretty chapeau.
Black and white effects are very
good this year, and some remarkably
handsome models are shown.
