on a lavish style. The draped velvet
crowns are OF massive dimensions and
the so-called small hats and turbans
are of impressive proportions, and the
large hat is exceeding itself in size.
A single plume, wing or a large bow
serves ofttimes for an entire trim

styles invites especial attention to the
prominence of velvet, beaver and
moire silks in millinery. A hat that
was admired very much was large

trimmed in three beautiful black will

was a large green MORE faced with
