Kurzman told me today, 1--WE have had
a number Of very stunning importa-
tions In hats"
AS he said this he put on a model
the CONNECTION OF claret colored
draped velvet shown on the full
tration. With this wat worn an err
mine cape trimmed with black mon
key, a claret colored velvet one-piece
suit with striped insats at the sides Of
the skirt, and Chinese embroidery in
dull shades completed this costume,
which showed q generous two inches
of stockings above the shoe tops.
The hat on the young woman who
is driving with the French officer ar
rived from Paris yesterday and is de-
signed as a compliment to our boys
made to stimulate the crown Of the
service hat worn by our privates. The
French, however, have put four blue
bows in the crushed places. The high
collar worn by this young woman
is the very latest mode.
The black velvet afternoon hat at
the left Is one of the most stunning
dress hats seen in the Kurzman im-
ports. It is trimmed about the edge
with a soft band Of ostrich feathers

the eyes. Ostrich feathers r very
good this season, two out Of three hats
being trimmed with them.
The walking hat design on the ng-
ure in the background is of tobacco
brown velvet. and the startling part
Of it is three brown tassels which
hang directly in the middle of the
forehead almost to the bridge Of the
nose. This is an Egyptian idea, and
emphasizes the fact that oriental con-
ceits will be worn On both hats and
