of the brim there is a wreath OF the
iittIest roses. A similar wreath goes
around the crown. One side of this
hat is lifted and curved and held in
place by a stiff wire hidden in the
roses. And right in this curve there
is set a pink rose of large size. This
hat is one of the dressiest of the gar
den hats.
Although roses play large part in
the Easter millinery, let NOBODY sup
pose that they are it's exclusive trim
mings. All sorts of flowers. real and
imaginary, flowers that grow in the
field and flowers that never grow save
under the nimble fingers of the
flower makers, are seen this year upon
the Easter shapes.
While following the flower thought
one must mention the fact that the
flower turban is once more very popu-
lar and is seen very much as 1T was
some years ago, round and compact
and made almost exclusively OF little
flowers.
There is a flower toque. which Is
very popular and which has for It's
basis the beautiful purple violet. 1t Is
made with pointed front and rounding
back. Its style is called the boat
shape, though some call 1t the tri-
ccrne. You will recognize it. Its
front or bow comes almost to a sharp
point, while its sides rise high and its
back is prettiIy shaped to fit the head.
The Flower Turban Is I'm" Again.
For the flower turban one harks back
to the days when every woman had q
violet turban. This turban is rather
large this season. 1t is pointed in
front and is covered as TO the top with
yiolets, while the sides are thatched
with leaves. This violet and green
together form a very pretty combina-
tion which can be made dressier by
the addition OF a pink velvet bow, or
a series of little pink velvet bows, ar
ranged around the crown In such
manner that the little bows touch the
hair.
The gown to wear with the flower
toque is unquestionably gown OF the
same color. A pretty purple, pansy-
colored. or a lavender gown goes beau
tifully with a violet-trimmed hat And
one can even essay to wear pink II one
cares to do so.
A pink cloth street dress Is not such
a great extravaganza If one looks at 1t
rightly and selects the shade Of pink
as il should be selected. There are
many colors, all called pink, and one
can have something fashionable or
something bizarre just as one elects.

OF course, one must pause to say a
