WHY TRIMMING ON LEFT SIDE
Custom Now Universally Followed
Goes Back to the Days Of chiv.
airy and the Rapier.

Did you ever wonder why 1t seems
natural to put trimming on the left
side Of the hat? OF course this year
we are not natural. SO far as trimming
Is concerned. We swathe our waists
with thick folds. we gather our skirts
in front, we fasten buckles. bows and
other decorations at our knees, and we
blithely wear the trimming of our hat
at left or right, front. back or in the
middle. Perhaps this fashion will dull
our feeling that the left side is the
suitable side for trimming.
This is the reason, anyway why we
have had to hold ourselves in check
lest we put our hats on backward or
sideways to bring the trimming to the
time-honored left side:
In the old, old days, when men went
