Feather trimmings Of all kinds. from the
beautiful wings 30 much in evidence to the
superb ostrich plumes which make the
prices Of a majority OF the dress hats soar
TO extravaganza heights, have been the con-
spicuous features OF the spring millinery.
They will doubtless retain their popularity
throughout the summer; but the flower
trimmed hat made it's appearance in the late
days Of the calendar spring. despite the lack
OF any encouragement from the weather.
and with certain midsummer t~oilettes
fowery millinery harmonises more charm
ingly than does any variety OF feather hat
trimming.
Wings are too heavy and stiff TO be the
ideal trimming for the hat worn with sum-
mer frocks Of the sheer and airy type, and
the instant that handsome ostrich plumes
are applied to a hat they give it an elaborate
and dressy character which prevents it's
being perfectly in ACCORD with a simpl e
morning or afternoon frock. For the sheer
and dainty hummer frook which makes no
nretence Of elegance the flower laden hat

from long association or innate correspond
ence with the laws Of the eternal fitness OF
things. leghorn seems peculiarly suited
for ribbon and floral adornment.
The wide soft silken scarfs and huge bows
90 popular with the designers adapt them
selves admirably to the graceful leghorn
shapes which are sometimes variations
upon the oloche or mushroom shapes and
sometimes picturesque shapes with wide
dropping brim at the back and at n side,
while the other side is turned up sharply
from the hair. Or perhaps the new leghorn
takes on the aureole lines, a wide brim
dropping low at the back, but rolled back
slightly In the front, exposing the front hair
and giving an aureole circle effect from a
front view
One OF these last mentioned shapes il
pictured In one OF the sketches, and was
az charming as II was extreme, but the same
shape modified is more popular with the
average summer girl. On the whole, this
