> Miss Kathryn Lamb entertained a
company of young women at a dinner
and slumber party Sunday evening at
; her beautiful country home northwest
of the city.
Astonishing as it may seem the host
ess now wears hat at her own lunch
con.
OF course every one knows it has al
ways been proper for a guest to wear a
hat and keep it on at such an affair,
but heretofore the hostess and her
house guests have distinguished by be-
ing hatless.
Yet in the last month four of the
ultra-leaders have appeared at their
/, own luncheons in superb hats. This
will be taken up by all society.
They were not out-of-door luncheons
or afternoon garden affairs, at which
a hostess would be supposed to cover
her head, but were indoor luncheons.
Tha hofc hrjJ opt' ffoi i,-e
to carry out the color sheme of hand
some picture gowns. It is not to be
denied that they improve the costume
C but they add the final touch to the ty
q ranny of the hat.
n Time was when woman could go t.
a the theaters. or make an evening cal
h without hats. This is now changed
!. Absurd as it Is women wear elaborate
# hats to and from the theater whicl
20 take off and put in their laps during
the play.
q 1t would be much simpler and tn
d woman would look much better as t.
n. her coiffure If she left her hat at home
ie Not long ago women went to the fash
ionable restaurants at night withou
, hats, but to do this now Is considere
in very questionable taste.
In truth at a time when the coiffur
has risen to its greatest height an
breadth, and more money than ever
spent to obtain 1t, it is necessary b
the law of fashion to cover it with
hat for every occasion except forma
dinner or ball.
