Another stTilingly good model Is

The regular trooper style is a fav-

Many of the new hats are shown
with rows of stitching on the edge
of the brim. Others have the stitch
ing all over the brim. Most of the
models that have creased crowns

Fashionable dressers are showing
favor towards rough, unfinished, soft

will wear them throughout the
spring season There are many de-
signs; the majority of them showing
low, oval crowns and wide brims
with round, curled and Darcy
shapes with the brims set in various
ways. Choice Is all a matter of
getting the hat to suit the taste Of
the individual. Fashionable wearers
will place the hat well back on tho
head, as shown by our illustration.
For summer wear Sennits and split
straws will be the favorites. A num-
Der of novelty straws are being in
troduced in regular sailor styles and
a great deal of favor has been shown
to Panamas. The Panama hat for
the coming season, will follow very
closely the soft hat styles. Alpine
shapes for example will be among
the best and the Potimo, a high
crowned hat, with wide brim, pencil
curled will be favorite. The
creased crown styles, so much IN

not be as good as they have been:
