Scrutmize Hats That
Are in Fashion

1t is the milliner's business to sell you the
newest hat in order to get it out of the stock;
it is your business to combat whatever ten
dency may be shown to put you at your worst
lacking in this strength Of character and
knowledge, you will come up against a stone
wall some day and bitterly wonder why women
with faces palmer than yours should be con-
sidered lovely and have all the dash and spirit
that the age commands.
The milliners have not drawn from as many
climes and ages this season as the dressmakers
have done. One might have reason to feel that
they have been more content than they should
be with the situation as it has existed for four
years. They projected the Russian turban over
the horizon of dress year ago, and it had
remarkable success in certain sections Of
America, but it was too difficult a shape for
the average woman to accept.
Two years ago they exploited the 1s40 hat,
but it had less success than any of the new
shapes. There was also strong effort made to
bring back the Dresden plateau in miniature
form, with the brim tipped over the eyebrows,

Whole Effect Often
Marred by a Hat

If women in mass could only be made cogni-
zant Of the truth concerning hats the milliners
would talk less and women would look better
It is the,ignorance of the majority of women
as to what kind Of hat they should wear that
oives the milliner who must sell hats chance

dressmaker and she will insist that the gown
should be purchased before any other part OF
the costume, and that all other things should
be added thereunto, with or without care.
SO. after all, you see, it is the commercialist
most interested in the wares he or she has to
sell who adapts the argument to suit the case.
1t is no wonder that women fall between two
stools when they so rarely find an adviser who
is able to visualize the whole costume and
either sell all Of it TO the customer or part
Of it. with a plan for the rest thrown in as
goodwill.

the figure, on to that vague and elusive thing
called style. A woman had to be pretty, and
her prettiness of the kind that women under
stood and men admired. Her figure might be
unshapely, her gowns chosen at random 'and
often i'll fitting, but the lovely face was feat
ured and exploited above everything else.
New-York tribune., 1917-12-09

majority of those who sell headgear have boz
rowed much of their persuasive lingo from
those who are trained to cajOle the public into
getting what it does not want In the majority
Of millinery shops there should be put up the
sign, "These hats must be sold, regardless Of
faces the latter word as a substitute for
prices
Probably it is asking too much Of human
nature for a saleswoman with a persuasive
manner to keep the apple-faced woman from
buying the drum majors hat, when the girls
living depends on the amount of sales made
during the day, and as human nature is thus
constituted it is much wiser for the individual
to learn what hat she must avoid, what hat she
should buy and override through authority
and knowledge whatever persuasiveness is
poured into her ear.

the back filled in with curls or flowers, and
ribbon about the chin and over the top of the
hat. But this experiment met with failure.
The hairdressers made an appeal to the mil
liners for aid in asking them to design hats
that would compel women to have their hair
dressed and cured and putfed out with false
hair but wherever the miliners harkened to
the appeal Of the hairdressers the result was
coIdly received.
There is no limit to the variety of hats,
when one refers to shape, but there is little
variety when it comes to startling inspiration.
The immense Oriental turban is the novelty,
and is worn by women who care to preserve
the Eastern look in their costumery whenever
the occasion permits it.
The original turban is of black satin, with
a black paradise in front and crystal buckle
to hold the spreading feathers. 1t is worn low
on the head, showing not a flicker of hair, eX-
cept tab on each ear to fill in the hiatus be-
tween the brim of the hat and the pearl ear
rings.
Even this shape is an echo of the Russian
ualIet, for the men wore this kind Of hat in
Scheherazade as it was costumed by Bakst,
and il is a symbol to many minds Of the Ara
bian, Nights.
There are women who have tried the shape
in amethyst and orange velvet clinging to the
black paradise and sometimes using black
Jet buckle instead of a colored crystal one;
but such women are daring, and their follow
ers should be few.
One thing should be we'll fixed in the mind
regarding this Oriental headgear, which is that
it should be kept for ceremonial occasions. 1t
is not the kind of hat to wear on the street in
the morning on windy day. 1t may be worn
indoors for any day affair and it has been
adopted by smart women with half-low gowns
for dinners and suppers at restaurants.
The milliners are enchanted over the pros
pect of selling more hats through the new
custom, which calls for covering on the head,
