 Birmingham wouldn't be Birmingham without the Hirsch Millinery company
 It is such part and parcel of this great big city that the world of fashionable women who are numbered among it's eli entele wouldn't feel that they were prop- erly and modishly attired if a "Hirsch' bonnet was not purchasd to complete an otherwise imperfect toilette.
 The Hirsch Millinery company stands for the most up-to-date. the most artistic and the most effective creations in the millinery world
 Every hat purchased there is joy to the wearer and can be relied upon to be the very latest word from the Parisienne and vieneese centers. and if the war has had any effect upon women's heard gear it certainly could not be detected yesterday in the magnificent display that the Hirsch Millinery company made a; varied or more beautiful or more complete line of millinery has ever been exhibited by this popular and fashionable house. The beautifully decorated shop was crowded from the early hours of the morning until the late hours of the aft ernoon to witness the handsome display of womens. misses and children's nilli- nery Monday. and 1t was the consensus of opinion that the excellent taste dls- played in the selection of the stock re- flected the greatest credit upon those n charge and that the women of Birlning- ham were to be congratulated upon hav- t...r .l. .x.t.t r>1 head dress to choose from for their fall and winter wardrobe.
 A new department has been inaugu- rated which is called the "Economy'' de- partment. Here customer may purchase every imaginable hat shape from 20 cents up ohigher prices. All colors are pro- vided in the velvet and satin hats already made, which can be trimmed to suit the taste.
 Among the beautiful Paris hats shown yesterday which. by the way, were among the very last consignments that came over after the war, was virot model, of black Lyons velvet. A twist of cloth of silver outlined the brim and the one bit of trin,- ming was d gorgeous black and white bird of paradise.
 A Marie Louise'' model was of black velvet and silver brocade, the crown ot the hat being of the Lyons velvet and the brim of the brocade. Two tremen- dous ornaments in spider web design formed the simple trimming and gave the hat just the bit of style necessary.
 A Camille Rogers hat was of black vel vet with a crown fashioned of cloth of gold. A single Numidy ostricn in black was gracefully placed on the crown and made stunning effect. simple, but won derfully modish.
 One of the most admired models dis played was gorgeous creation in nigger head brown velvet. The hat was tuned slightly at the side, giving most becom- ing effect and yellow ostrich feather was arranged about the crown, fastened at the side with cluster of yellow grapes with green leaves. It was beau- tiful hat and much admired.
 The small hats were very chic and a new variety. Vogue" hats attracted a great deal of attention.
 One very modishi little Vogue" turban was of black velvet fitting closely to the head and trimmed with two uncurled os- trich feathers in gold color caught with single gold rose.
 The misses and children's department was replete with stylish and beautiful hats. The street hats were shown prin- cipally in black and white effects, the white corduroys being especially attrac- tive.
 A dainty little bonnet for little miss was of white plush with white stain rib bon trimmings, and a tiny wreath 'oi green and red berries. This was from the work rooms of the Tirsch Millinery company.
