A new departure in feminine head
gear made fashionable by the extreme
hot weather in the east, are the Pray
ing Caps" that many of the women
wear in church. This new millinery
is the Outgrowth of the custom Of
women to go about in hot weather
without hats. It is violation of the
rule of the church, however, to go hat
less to service. so the women devised
haired women and lighter cOlOred for
blondes. and placed a supply of them
just inside the entrance to the church,
and now any woman who wants to go
to church without a hat may do so
without violating the DEGREES of can
onical authority. St. Paul, who first
insisted that women should keep their
heads covered in church, would surely
be willing to compromise on the little
! black caps, in view of the high tenn
! peratures and the price of willow
! plumes.
