FUR ON NEW FALL HATS

The new hats are almost commonplace
in the hand. but the minute they are
| posed correctly on the head their style
| is apparent. 1t requires some knack TO
arrange them at the most telling and be-
coming angle, but unless the hat sets
just right on the head the beauty of the
outline is lost and the new hats owe
much TO the outline. The majority are
squashed down over one eye, generally
the right one, and are raised high on the
other side, showing a wide eXpanse Of
the hair. This gives a very jaunty air
to the hat which is aCcentuated by the
curve of the brim and the trimming.
Whether the hats flare on one side or
not. they set low on the head.
The fall hats thus far have been small
and medium. Not any stretch of the i'm
aginatiOn can make these medium hats
large, though il is possible that a little
later in the winter. when there is more
demand for the dressy hats, the large hat
may return to favor.
Little Novelty in MaterInIs.
There is very little novelty among the
materials, for hats. The one novelty.

with velours, plush, taffeta, and the imi-

The popular Sailor shape is well to the
fore among the new hats, though shown
in many notifications. The patent leath

A few of the exclusive milliners are
reversing the method OF wearing the hal

under the chin, is drawn across the back.
The fur straps. which were introduced
by the originator of most of the eccentric
novelties. are worn in this way with a
great deal of charm. The black velvet
chin straps are quaint when attached 10

CoIumbin-"The Master Mind

Next week at the Columbia Theater
will be seen Daniel D. Carter's gripping
play, 1.-THE Master Mind" with Edmund
Breese in the title role. The play is a
distinct departure from the modern crook
and underworld plays that have flooded
the country during the past two seasons.
Mr.. Breese gives a portrayal OF The
Master Mind" cunning individual who
resorts to extremes in an endeavor to
avenge the death of his brother, which
he claims to be judicial murder. He at
tempts TO ruin politically the public off,

There are women who have nothing to

Becoming Universal.
The touch of fur on the hat is becom-
ing as universal as it is on the gowns,
and its use is likely to increase as the
season advances and the furs are
dragged forth from their summer hiding
places. All kinds of furs are adapted
for hat trimmings. but the skunk is per-
haps the most popular The furs dyed to
match, or contrast, with the foundation
are just beginning to appear on the new
hats. having been introduced on the
gowns first. The effects possible to OBJ

for this purpose the dyed mole fur is
best adapted to millinery. though fox
