Dear Sir: You certainly have made
very bad mistake by promising the

MILLINERY SHOPS MAKE LARGE
DISPLAY OF CHIC HEADWEA

The hats the thing. The hat beau
tiful in all its various phases for fall
and winter is the topic of the hour
among Wilmington women who have
begun TO visit these fascinating exhibit
tions to which the stores are inviting
the public. Never was there a greater
variety of shapes, coJOrs and materials
for trimmings. A woman may be in
the height of style in a big beaver hat
or small velvet toque, or all that 20
between. There are no end of fetching
tailor-made effects. alluring "ready-to-
wear" hats. exquisite creations for
evening wear. and even waterproof.
rainy day hats that are as pretty as
they are useful. IL would indeed be a
woman hard to please who could not
make a selection from the Wilmington
stores.

The Leader

The ceiling of the Leader store, No.
22S Market street. reminds the visi-
ter Of ocean waves. with its green and
white draperies. The color scheme is
further caSried out by banks of potted
plants at intervals along the entire
length OF the store. The millinery dis
play is a fine one. The majority of the
hats appear to be quiet in tone, the
prevalent shades being blacks, browns,
greys and tans, though there are excep-
tions. the more notable ones being in
red. blue and green. Evidently the
picture hat Is again in the ascendency
and it Is taking the Gainsborough
form. The coat and wrap department
is on the second floor. All sorts OF

him II he would like to invest In it. He
thought favorably of the concern, but
two or three days later he told Heist-
and that he had no money to Invest in
any company. Some time afterwards
Assistant Secretary Allen came TO him
and said that a man named Hawkes.
was using both their names to float
some scheme He told Allen that
Hawkes. had no authority to use his
name. Neither Boyd nor Meiklejohn
ever talked to him concerning the or
ganization of the company. He had
never discussed the matter with
Hawkes.. He knew of Hawkes., as he
was appointed in the volunteers, and
subsequently applied for another ap'
pointment Hawkes. came to him with
a claim against Heistand and he haC
sent it to Heistand. That was all his
connection with the matter. He wanted
to state, he said. for the honor of hi
country, that he never heard 1t init
mated before that the war department
could be used for any dishonorabl
purposes.
