NOW that the time for vacation trips
IN is coming near and has, in fact,
arrived, the consideration of hats
comes up, hats which will do all their
wearers have right to expect them
to.
The three shapes, two of them
straight sailors, that are grouped in
the picture given here, are fine ex-
amples of hats suitable for vacation
trips. Besides the two sailors, the
hat with taller crown, trimmed with
wheat, is designed for matrons who
do not want hat as youthful as the
plain sailor.
The introduction of lacquered rib
bon with it's notwithstanding, highly
lustrous surface (Which suggests dur
ability but does not really mean it,,
has given considerable strength to
hats Of black braid. A pretty model
for an outing hat is made over wire
frame with silk fiber braid sewed to
it. There is a collar of black lac
quered ribbon laid in fiuted plaits at
intervals about the crown. Between
the plaits are clusters of cherries.
