hats. And not only are those whose
income is limited building their own
headgear. but women of fortune and
extremists in fashion. That's one rea-
son why they prefer to make their

into the bit Of lace and flower and the
harmony that exists between the hat
and the wearer is as pleasing to the
eye as is harmony in music or in the
tones Of a picture.
Now, all women are not born with
an innate knowledge of millinery.

they'd been hammered together, and
