tainly give the effect. The crow Of
the hat IS OF velvet and the four-cor-
nered brim Of milan straw. Note how
the hat, though not a military model,
IS tipped forward instead of back on
the head. and a little over the right
eye in Tho very latest mode.
a new three-Cornered. or tricorne,
turban is pictured also In tho hat
trimmed with imitation paradise-gen-
uine paradise being debarred now. The
tricorne shape is gracefully carried
out without stiffness, for there is a
sIlght bulge or curve to each section
Of the brtm and the hat sets well down
on the head. A further effect of soft
ness and grace Is conveyed by the frill
OF taffeta silk which stands up within
the brim of milan straw. The crown
is also of silk-a very smart feature
this spring when few a are all Of
one material. The straw brim is golden
brown in tone. the taffeta silk still
more golden in shade and the para
disc ornament combines black. bronze
and yellow shadings. This hat should
be particularly becoming to a brunette
woman; carried out in soft blues or
black, il would he charming on a
blonde.
Another tricorne turban shows the
tendency toward a flare at the upper
part of the brim. rather than al its
base, a feature of the military trend
just now when mushroom effects or
anything approaching them are quite
beyond the pale. This turban. of pale

In shape, but the high brim flares out
at the top into a tricorne shape:
straight across the back and with the
trlangle's point over the nose. This
hat also tips Onward rather than back
on the head. The inner brim and
crown are of white satin and the
ieather ornaments, oddly yet very
smartly balanced. combine shades OF
SOFT gray with white. Gray. en- pas

4 military chapeau just completed
for the early season is of white silk,
the only straw showing in the under
brim which is black. White braid IS
plested around the tall crown in the
new cartridge effect, made by looping
out The braid in even loops or Fuckers
with a stitch at upper and lower edge.
AT one side rises a pert white silk
brush held by a jet ornament against
tho lraid-banded crown. The brim is
very, very narrow, scarcely more than
a rolled edge Of blacl. straw turning
up about the white crown ana the
hat Is designed to be we'll tilted for
ward over the eyes. Another mill
tLry hat suggests the dress-hat of an
Admiral, so 1t really belongs TO the
naval. not the military class. Its elon-
gated. peaked brim is of black milan
and its long crown of pleated black
silk is drawn up into a ridge nj the
top. At one Side is "A goura ornament
whose feathery bla"kness relieves the
stitf line Of the shape.
Hand blocked shapes Of milan,
hemp, iagal and foghorn are ready in
smart tnrban styles which tit closely
around the head at the base but flare
toward the top and toward the back.
These Will be trimmed with pleated
ribbon rosettes and cabuchons, with
feather fancies in small, pert shapes
and with pompons and brushes in the
Cossack style. All the style of the
spring turban will be in its shape
