Spring Hats Are Here

because so much of it shows below
the rakish little headgear. No hat
can possibly be smart unless some OF
the coiffure shows below its brim.
This is rarely possible ut the front,
for the average hat meets the worry
eyebrows, and waves or tendriiS OF
hair would straggle into lnilady's
eyes; but at the sides the hair is
drawn down over the cars, and even
over part OF the cheek. If you will

The other straw and ribbon hat is
a picture model which has a most
fetching shape. The peaked crown is

UGH a crown would have distressed

Milan hat got wet and the fiat top
of it's crown buiged up to give this
very peaked effect? The brim of the
big picture hat is most graceful also,
with it's slight downward slant. AL
together, his is one of the most at
%tractive hats the new season has
brought out. Iustrous black straw
and black velvet ribbon are inter-

is faced with pleated black chiffon.

Another example of the popularity
of interlaced ribbons on millinery is
shown in the illustration of a South
land sport hat, one of the smartest
models put out by u Manhattan shop
which s~pccializes' in sport attire.

color combinations, II models in
green and pale gray and in black
and green are especially smart.
Flowers Must Look Artificial,
Not Natural.
Roses no longer nod on large hats;
violetS no longer seem to sprout nat
urally from spring toques. Instead.
flowers are ruthlcssly pulled apart
and petals arc scattered fatty over
crown and brim as though they had
drifted there on a spring breeZe. An
effect of this sort is Illustrated in
one of the large hats. a modified
sailor shape with a new bulginS
crown and a brim which has u very
subtle slant-curving up at one side
and toward the back and down AZ
the other side to shade the face. The
whole hat is of supple straw braid
in a soft shade of blue, and over the
crown is. draped pale gray net, the
airy fabric drifting also across the
white magnolia petals that are APP
