to be worn a great deal this spring,
depends very much upon the angle
at which they are worn. If they are

cases coming little further down

I BY MaybeIle Mortimer
There have been some changes in
the style of hats since the first flare
of fashion made its appearance.
The very small hat perched on the
side of ones head, after the fashion
of Tommy Atkins, has not found the
favor its originar hoped for it.
Easter morning on parade, how
ever, were many of the Victorian
shapes described by Dickens and
Thackeray. These fiat shapes, with
their ribbon and velvet ties and their
wreaths Of flowers, look just as well
on granddaughters of today as they
did, on grandmothers of other days.
There are violent contrasts in the
shapes of hats. Some are very tall
and some are very fiat. Only one
thing marks all of them alike; the
