assembly and this was followed by
the order to strike camp, what for, we
did not know, but there were wild
rumors of going home and of fight

pleted our march kits when the order
came to pitch tents again as we
were not to move out until tomorrow
at Z a. m. Where we are going to-
morrow we do not know, but shall
move out about II miles on a tactical
problem, and that the next day we
shall start on our return to Nogales.
As to going home, that is still mys-
terry, but we have hopes of being on

SHOPPERS
THRONG PALAIS ROYAL
Latest Modes of Partisan and London
~ Millinery Shown.

The mecca of fashionable shoppers yes
terday was the millinery department of
the Palais Royal. where the new models
of the latest Partisan and London head
gear were displayed at the annual
autumn opening. With the rose-shaded
lights reflected In the sheen OF satins and
velvets and little groups of shoppers
lingering long after purchasing to admire
and chat about the newest modes, the
millinery corner Of the big department
store took on the aspect OF a drawing
room during the crush hour.
Every model, shade and fabric de-
signed to appeal to the most discriminat-
ing taste is on view. There are sport
hats. dress hats, military hats, chic little
models for the tailIeur suit, hats fol
evening and afternoon. in colors adapted
to every complexion and costume. In
difference to the prevailing preference for
sport costumes, which promises to out
last the summer, there are on display
any number OF soft felts and velours,
ornsmented with a flower design fashion
ed from chenille. Some are wide of brim
and droop gracefully, while others have
that trim. tailored effect associated with
the English walking hat

Small hats in toques or "tams," fash

large hats of velvet or finest satin

in black, blue. purple, and soft shades
of brown. For ornaments, there are
feathers, and quaint designs in silver
and gold braid. Some hats, which re-
fleet the military tendency in dress, are
almost covered with gold braid and turn
up sharply on one side. the brim being
held with a military tassel. More frtv-
olous models have an ornament in the
shape OF a tiny, flat basket formed Of
silver braid, with a cluster of wee
flowers protruding from the top.
