brim and lacking there. In facing
lower brim proceed in the same
manner, and finish entire brim by
slip-stitching edge to edge with
blind stitches.
You are now ready to trim your
hat. For Nos. 1 and 2 the same
quantity of trimming materials is
needed. Get some Persian silk at
40 cents per yard. 1t comes 81
inches wide, and you require q OF
a yard. For hat No. 1, cut mate
rial in half, lengthwise; join to a
strip of messaline cut from mate
rial remaining, and fold around
crown in drape lines, leaving suf-
ficient at one end to finish center
of bow. Make bow of Persian and
line it with the messaline. Drape
and flatten it into shape with blind
stitches, laying it half ON crown
and half on brim.
To arrange trimming for hat No.
2, also cut fold lengthwise, have it
four inches wide, and turn in half
an inch top and bottom. Attach as
facing-which should extend one
half inch at top and bottom-a
strip of messaline five inches
wide. To make rosette, cut a
strip of the >ePrsian three and
one-half inches wide-you can use
it on the straight; fold and
shape by gathering it at bottom.
Finish with six-inch ends of the
Persian, lined with the remaining
scraps of messaline.
For hat No. 8 you require

contrasting shade. This also comes
27 inches wide, and you can buy
it at 40 cents per yard. l should
advise your using some shade
which harmonizes with your suit,
as you wear it more often with
this garment. For band, cut a
bias strip of the silk five inches
wide, and face it with the MESA
line. Drape it in straight lines
around the crown. To make the
rose, cut strip the full width of
your silk three inches wide, and
divide it into five parts, two
seven inches each, two four inches
each and one five inches. Ues
the larger pieces for outside petals
of the rose. To make petals,
slipstitch a fine wire and hem on
wrong side of strips. Gather them
at bottom and face with messa-
line. Build your rose on an old
calyx which you take from some
faded flower. Rose when finish

BY Cynthia Grey.


AS a hat is one of the most i'm
pOrtant accessories of dress. we
must give some thought to it's Sc
lection. Study what is becoming
to you, not merely from the front,
but from the side and back IS well.
Choose the shape that fits your
head. Don't buy one that makes
you look topheavy. Hats should
frame our faces becomingly.
Shapes to be covered are the most
popular.
The hat we are going to make is
known as the Mushroom. 1t is
simple, and you as an amateur mil
liner need have no fear in attempt
ing to make it. / am showing you
three ways to develop it from the
same quantity Of materials. The
;lrts is trimmed with a fold of Per-
sian and black silk and finished at
the back with a loosely draped
bow, the second has the drape 7
crown effect, trimmed at the side
VITA a rosette and ends, and the
third has a high Tam O'Shanter
crown effect add a handmade rose
and leaves of silk. Either of them
will look stunning" with your
tailor-made suit.
Don't get a hat with feathers,
unless you can afford to have more
thar one hat.
In trimming hats we follow the
lines laid down for clothes, and
make the trimming a part of the
hat, not something applied. The
crowns of these hats are part of
the trimming. Any one of them
can be developed from l Y yards
of messaline. l advise your get
ting black. 1t is more serviceable
and you can wear it with any cos
tune. A fair quality of messaline,
SO inches wide, sells for 10 cents
yard. Cheaper cloth will not
stand the wear and tear of sea-
son.
To make your hat, first get
buckram shape, which costs %
cents. Lay the crown of it against
material and draw silk over crown
and down sides to the base of the
crown, allowing five inches for
tufting. Then cut square from
the silk from dimensions obtained.
These hats all need square PIX
81 inches. I cannot give you exact
measurements for your hat, as
shapes vary so much. Use your
own judgment and gauge the
amount you require.
Cut bias folds from the re-
mainder of the material to cover
the outer and inner brim. The
widths of brim vary as much as
do the crowns. Nos. and 2 have
3-inch brim and require "
inch fold to cover, them; No. 3 has
tapering brim, inches wide in
front and sloping to ~ inches in
the back, and fold of A inches is
needed. These measurements al
low the ~ inch required for turn
ing in at edges and fastening to
base of crown.
Begin by draping crown of hat.
Place the silk with the center
against the center of the crown of
hat and pat" it~into shape. Re-
member that you depend on your
chief trimming for the manner in
which you drape your crown.
Fasten the tufted spaces by invis-
ible stitches and pin to the base of
crown. In No. / you flatten the
crown to give it the broad effect;
in No. 2 the draping must be high
er on the left side than it is on the
right, and in No. 3 form the Tam
O'Shanter, catching it here and
there. Use little crinoline if you1
desire it to hold its shape.
Next join bias pieces until you
have sufficient length for the outer
brim and stretch and pin it to
shape, then join. When properly
stitch to the crown by

Dear Miss Grey:
My ankles swell when l am on
my feet a little while, especially
when wearing low shoes. What
can 1 do? READER.
1t is nothing to worry
about. Due to standing, thus
slowing the circulation. If you
could sit occasionally and elevate
the feet, or tack a brisk walk, the
swelling would decrease. At night
rub the feet and ankles upward.
If the swelling persists consult a
physician about the kidneys and
heart.
