Hat for De6utante

The debutante can manage a lovely
hat to go with a partiCulaE~gOwn by
trimming Il after a late French i'm
portation. with just huge tulle bow.
1t is easy to find an untrimmed hat
with a straight brim in any Of the de-
partment stores, the color depending
upon the frock It is intended for, The
bow has four square IooP ends on either
side, and a big knot at the middle
Three or four thicknesses Of tulle viii
be required for each loop, and these
should be carefully wired. Black velvet
with either white or black tulle IS
lovely. brown velvet with brown, yellow
MORE with brown, peacock beaver with
blue or black, and so on; any number
Of good combinations being possible
Ono may have several bQws for the
same hat with great success
An all white gown is often trying,
even for the debutaute, and there are
ways OF adding a little color, that are
most attractive. a Worth gown has a
bow knot of pale blue showing under
tune sleeve. while another model has
one sleeve entirely Of pink dOgwood, the
blossoms fastened on thin foundation.
The other sleeve is Of white tulle.

This charm has been uppermOst in the
thought Of the great couturieres who
have adopted the mode of yelling many
OF their costumes with chiffon. In this
manner. also, the subdued colOrings
Of the season are developed from some
of the otherwise too brilliant tones.
The foundation OK the gown is. how
ever, of the neutral champagne tint
D. cloth. It is deliberately trimmed
With panels Of lace, the bodice being
composed entirely Of the lace. over
this is draped the black chiffon. which
falls in soft. VoluminOus folds, with the
fuIlnes in the back at the bottom Of the
skirt
The bodice Is yelled in the same man
ner. only the high collar Of lace ap-
pearing in white. The sleeves reach be-
low the elbow with just a suggestion
OF wilderness peeping from beneath the
black veil. Confining the skirt below
the knees Is a sash Of champagne-col-
ored ribbon which is used again TO form
the crushed girdle ending in the back
in a large. full rosette.

principally. for the price they bring.
Hens continued in considerable de-
nand this morning, but showed a slight
tendency today toward weakening.
Turkeys also weakened live fowls fall

Indications are the poultry market is
rapidly resolving itself into a status
which Will be favorable to the con-
