CHIC TRIMMING FOR
A MOURNING HAT
Late Millinery lmportaions Show
Daisies Surrounding the
Entire Brim.

Padded daisies make an extraordinarily
chic trimming for the mourning hat, and
some of the late millinery importations
have shown them completely surrounding
| the brins. The petals are usually a little
over an inch in length, and the centers
are about twice as large as the natural
center of the flower they are made to
initiate. From lusterless black crepe de
chine cut oyals OF the size and shape to
make a daisy petal about a quarter of an
inch wide and a little over an inch long.
At both ends the oval should be shaped
to points, just as the natural petal Of the
daisy D pointed. Two of these petals
thus cut are laid together. and a seam is
run about them by machine, making one
petal from the two pieces. The bottom
OF the petal is left open an eighth of an
inch up, 50 that it may be turned inside
out and the seams concealed in the in
AIDE. Then take a match stick and a bit
of soft cotton and poke the cotton into
the little petal bag with the end Of the
match stick.
Make 1t quite plump, and be sure that
the cotton reaches clear to the point of
the petal Then sew the petal up at the
bottom. Make a sufficient number of
these, say about twelve. to go all around
the little padded center. This center is
made of a circle of the crepe de chine
stuffed with cotton and then pressed
down so that IT does not look too ball
like. The edges of the crepe de chine
circle are drawn down about the tiny ball
Of cotton and fastened with a few stitches
on the under side. The petals are then
stitched to the under side of the center.
Very little cotton is used to pad the
lower ends Of the petals, as this would
make the center too bulky underneath
when the petals are stitched to it Some
OF these daisies are arranged SO that
slightly smaller petals are placed over
and between the gaps left by the twelve
larger petals about the padded center.
This gives the effect OF double row of
petals, which Is even prettier than the
single row. A Georgette sailor with
twelve or fifteen Of these crepe de chine
flowers lying nat on the short brim
makes an exceedingly smart mourning
hat.

wait long. Ending that Meade did not
attack, he issued orders for part of his
own army to move out from its right
flank on the morning OF December and
attack the left wing of the Federal army
along the turnpike road to Fredericks-
burg.
By the afternoon OF December n Gen.
Meade had decided to withdraw his
army. The troops had marched on No

Their food was now nearly gone. The
men were suffering from the cold.
Throughout the night of November 30 no
fires had been built along the battle line
Of the army.

passed through the. army for the vari-
Gus commands to withdraw, after night

The guns were removed as silently as
the frozen ground admitted, and IN
their place, wherever the position was in
view of the Confederates, quaker
guns of wood were placed.
As the army withdrew, volunteers were
called for in each command to remain
behind and feed the fires. Brave men
were not wanting, and from each brigade
a few were told off to this dangerous
duty. Faithfully they kept their posts,
and as the. sparks went upward from

Fifty years ago today the Army OF
the Potomac, after a rapid retreat from
Mine Run, south Of the Rapidan River,
reached its old camps near the Kappa
hammock n Brandy Station, and went
into winter quarters.
This was the end of the last campaign
of the year in Virginia. It had been
brief and TO the Federals disappointing.
Gen. George. G. Meade had hoped by a
rapid movement to turn the position oc-
cupied by Gen. Lees Confederate army,
south of the Rapidan,- gain Lees rear,
and cut his forces in two, for they were
much spread out, southwark, in their
winter camps.
The campaign, well planned, had failed
from two specific causes. the army had

of the movement; Lee had swiftly and

The climax had come on November 80,
when the Federal army was ordered to

Meade Expects Dismissal.
Gen. Meade felt keenly the failure of
his final campaign OF the year. He had
undertaken II In Difference to public
opinion. Its failure was due to his in
ability to bring about the prompt con-
centration of his army at the point Sc
lected, and to the speed with which Lee
took up and fortified a new line.
Owing to hostile criticism of his pur-
suit OF Lee after Gettysburg Gen. Meade
had become sensitive to public censure.
His inability later to bring Lee to battle
under favorable conditions increased that
sensitiveness.
Letter writers and politicians will de-
nounce me-" he wrote his wife on his
return to the Rappahannock from Mine
Run. FINALLY the administration will
be obliged to yield to the popular clamor
and discard me. For all this am pre-
pared, fortified by clear conscience"
week later he wrote, 81 am still on
the anxious bench"
Gen. Meade was not WRONG in suppos-
ingothe administration was considering
his relief from command. But Lincoln
was not the man to relieve a general
without a hearing, and Meade's official
report was awaited as 4 basis on which
to proceed. The report was TO prove
satisfactory to the administration. and
Gen. Meade was to be retained in COM
mand of the Army of the Potomac.
