being Enthusiastically of Partisan origin.
Two Dressy French Models.
From Rogers. always one of the most
original and daring of Paris millinery
creators. comes a stunning black and
white hat which will be worn first at an
Easter wedding in New York. This hat
is a -brimmed model Of black Nea-
politan straw. wired to give a rolling. tip-
tilted effect and trimmed most simply:
but, all. with what Paris genius. At two
places on the crown are sewed mammoth
cabochons of cut jet, ard directly at the
back is a stupen6ous white aigrette which
would make the members of the estimable
Audubon Society faint with horror.
Another Neapolitan model this time in
white. comes from Carler-always To he
relied upon for most graceful ana charm
ing hats. Cartier loves beauty and grace
and always avoids freak effects. When
compelled to handle them he lends such
nimitable flavor of earlier prettiness
that under his touch they become not
freaks at all, but models of picturesque
individuality. This charming white Nea-
politan straw is wired TO give the Ioll-
brim effect and is trimmed with pale
green tulle, satin ribbon of a slightly
deeper shade and dark green laurel leaves.
all arranged about the high crown in the
scarf and rosette effect that earlier best
loves.
Another new model from earlier is the
cabriolet bonnet. a revival of very cd
style. The oabriolet is like a huge clam
shell in shape and slants over the face in
front. while the back scoops up To show
a great deal of the hair. Dropping cas-
cades of lace and little pink roses trim
the sides of the bonnet. and, of course.
there are long streamers of pink ribbon
to knot carelessly beneath the chin
Turban Models.
Streamers will be reserved for the mid
summer hats, says Paris. The long rib
bons are, of course out Of place on the
serviceable hats destined for early street
wear or for travelling during the summer
months All these street and travelling
hats are coming over from the best mill
linery houses in turban shapes-and by

difference Turbans sometimes have quite
decided brimS, but these slope sharply
downward. shading the eyes and almost
celebrating the couture. or they ron
sharply back making a little curl against
the high crown. These new turbans are
most simply trimmed with the wide band
and bow of ribbon, or by big ornament
and towering aigrette at the front. Few
wings are seen on them, these being re-
served for the wider brimmed hats on
which the wings are laid fiat over the
crown, held down by straps of soft satin
ribbon in the same shade. very smart

shading from gray to steely blue. and

straight over the fiat wings.
