EASTER MILLINERY.
Our Millinery Stores Held Openings FRI
day and Saturday Last.-A Fine
Display Made at Each.

The season has again approached for
the showing of the new spring millin-
cry and look through the parlors of
our three milliners, who held their
openings last Friday and Saturday
convinces anyone that they are all
proud to place before the ladies of
Yale the latest modes and most up-to-
date styles in headwear. a glance
through your fashion magazines and
an occasional visit to the cities will
soon tell you that you may get the
same fashions i'm your home town.
At each of our three shops we notice
that fine straw is used to great eX-
tent in the making of all sorts of
shapes. Chip is made up in many
pretty forms to suit the face which is
to go under it. Leghorn, the Old-time
favorite, is here again this season and
bids fair to be very popular. The hats
are decidedly light in color and several
pretty white ones are shown. Beauti-
full colors are in evidence, but dull
shades predominate. Old rose in many
shades is a great favorite, the reseda
and fruit greens, lavender and other
shades lead closely. A profusion of
flowers will be used, hyacinths, lilacs,
violets and forget-me-nOts and quanti-
ties of roses. Foliage has a large place
in trimming, also pretty ribbons, quilts
and handsome buckles. A number of
long plumes were also seen. The out
ing and street hats are much prettier
this year than last.
Miss Ross's parlor was bright and
cheerful with the array of pattern
hats. Quantities of roses were used ef-
fectively for decoration. Some very
handsome hats were OH exhibition,
one that was particularly noticed COM
bined the two colors old rose and gold.
Another showed old rose and gray.
There are several mourning hats which
are extremely artistic and rich. Lin
gerie hats for the children will be in
great demand. Miss Ross has unus-
ually good taste in trimming and her
work is always much admired.
AT Mrs. Eva j. Blacks one must
first admire the elegantly trimmed
window before entering. 1t shows ex-
cellent taste. A few large dress hats
are here, but the medium-sized hats
and sailors prevail. A beautiful crea-
tion shown on the figure in the window
is an exact copy of the one which took
the gold medal prize at the Milliners
Convention held March and 8 at the
Masonic Temple in Chicago. 1t is in
folds and ruchings of white maline, with
crown of lacy white and silver braid
and two long white plumes. Another
large hat in eyelet embroidery, with
herringbone ruching and pink roses
was very pretty. Mrs. Blacks shop is
replete with all the new and natty
modes.
Miss Pearce has two neat windows,
one with quantity of rich foliage and
the other with a profusion of small
flowers, both showing the fine hats to
good advantage. Some very pretty
shapes were shown in the new shades
of green. A delicately pretty one was
in gray and pink with maline folds.
Sailors in different shapes were seen
and also some neat hats for the little
ones. We noticed that handsome
lowered ribbon was being used to
some extent
There is no possibility of not being
suited with the hat fare given in Yale
this spring. You have only to make
your choice. Outing hats, street hats
and dress hats in all grades and prices
are in lavish display at each of the
millinery pmnOriums
