>PRINa hats were charming. Mid

-, summe hats are still more
charming. The small shapes OF
the early spring and variations upon
those small shapes have their uses
even now. Many Of them are trans
lated into terms Of summer.
Ono fnds them in all white, In light
Straws flower trimmed. in tulle, in
orsandy, in lace. and for simple
tailored wear the little dark hat
trimmed with scant severity Is chosen
BY many women; but. as usual. sum
mer has brought larger hats. and the
small tailored hat has a rival in the
wide brimmed sailor.
This sailor is epidemic. Paris took
II up with enthusiasm when II was
launched and New York promptly
followed suit. The shape is shown in
every imaginable coloring and in all
sorts Of materials. 1t is worn in
stiff straw and In tulle. 1t is adapted
to sports wear and I o garden party
or restaurant veal 1t is very gen.
orally becoming and. according to the
talent Of the milliner who fashions 1t.
It 10 extremely ordinary or extraordi-
narily chic. One may pay a dollar
ninety eight for It or fifty dollars
for It.
OF all the seasons hat shapes this
Is the most popular, and though 1t
varies q little In brim width. crown
height, &C., and its wide brim some-
times rolls a little. sometimes is quite
nat, It dominates the millinery In
every crowd, whether the crowd con-
gregates at Coney Island or at New
port.
Some Of the prettiest summer YER
sions Of this sailor shape are in white
satin and fine white straw or erin,
and one Fifth venue milliner has had
great success with such a white
sailor trimmed IN white swallows laid
fatly on the brim.
Appliqued flowers or fruit cut from
silk or cotton or velvet and set fatty
upon brim OF crown are cleverly used
by u,illiners to trim sailors, and flow

bows. cockades r all pressed into
service.
Sailor shapes with velvet crowns
and shirred. transparent brims Of tulle
launched by q famous milliner have
been taken up too generally to remain
chic. yet some original note Of trim
ming will save such a hat from look
ing common. and the same type Of
sailor in white-sattn crown, white
tulle brim. trimming of white flowers
or rings or feather fancy-is particu-
larly good looking.
A single rose in color sometimes Is
effective on such a hat in place Of
white trimming. and the same shape
made entirely of shirred white tulle
and trimmed with one beautiful pink
rooe 10 offered by q we'll known milli-
nAf In association with a parasol also
made entirely Of shirred tulle. with a
srvat pink rose posed where the fer
rule would DO. and q handle Of white
enamel.
Then there 10 the wide brimmcd
sailor Of orsandy. very simple. plainly
covered and trimmed in a scarf and
bow Of the organdy. In white or In
delicate pink this is an adorable hat
Tor hot weather. and the same idea is
cleverly carried out In white organdy
With brim and scarf narrowly bound
In color.
4 pale creamy pink sailor Of finest
straw was effectively trimmed by a
folded scarf Of dark violet purple vel
VT and around the upper edge Of the
veevet ran q row Of wonderful pansies
In many natural colorings. but with
the purplish shades predominating.
Another broad brimmed sailor echo
ing this color scheme and quite as
lovely in its own way was of the same
paae. creamy pink, but had natural
looking orchids laid around the top Of
the brim, which was faced to within
IN inch Of its edge with purple velvet.
The flowers Of millinery grow more
lovely year by year. and this summer,
though stin little fowerets and nose
