Practice of Showing
Panamas in January
Is Given Sound Rap
Freak Window Displays No Help to
Sale of Felt Hats for Winter
and Spring.

January is the month for at least
one halter in each town to coin an
entirely new idea by running a dis
play of panama hats, says a leading
hat trade journal in deploring the
custom.
Mid winter and with snow on the
ground. perhaps, but we are intro
duced TO the panama hat! Let us call
halt, If you are planning TO star
tie the natives with a windOwful of
January panamas, let us suggest that
you think it over with the serious
business of the next few months IL
mind.
Showing panama hats in January
is not a very clever stunt; it amounts
next to nothing in sales and directs
attention from felt hats that should
be filing the minds of every male
inhabitant at this time, and 1t fore
shortens a season OF felt hat selling
that is too short in any event.
IF YOU can think of any defense Of
the January panama and March straw
hat displays please write the editor.
II you can not then get TO work SELL
