Milliners May Hold Fall
Fashion Show August f

The fall fashion show of the Retail
Millinery Association of America prob
ably will be neld on August g. E. V. M.
Goldberg, secretary of the association,
says that 81 per cent of the members
who replied to the question of whether
the show should be held on August 6
or week later favored the earlier
date.
Most of the members of the associa-
tion who have expressed themselves
on the subject favor the first week in

new midwinter opening. The move
ment among millinery interests to es-
tablish midwinter opening along the
lines of the recent midsummer opening
is progressing.
