WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, w. Va.
Aug. 16.-Both the Greenbrler and the
White arc packed to capacity and cot
tagers are harborlng many friends who
have come for the social weeks OF Au-
gust. The horse show at the Meadows
was the chief attraction the last week
and receipts at the gate showed the
largest attendance In the history Of the
show. about 5000 people attending dur
ing the two days performance.
West Virginians proved themselves
levers Of the horse when they managed
to get to tho track. coming from long
distances in spite OF the partial railroad
strike, which tied up all of tho local
trains. Many motor parties came from
Charleston, Hot Springs, Old Sweet
Springs and other points across the
mountains. Thornton Lewis, president :;
Henry Hunter and Lawrence Dickson,
vice-presidents; Lawrence Lewis, secre-
terry, and the board OF governors were
greatly encouraged by the intense en-
thusiasm manifested. The Plaza cup in
the harness class went to Mrs. James B.
Weir OF Charleston. whose Golden
sceptre. shown In national shows and at
Madison Square Garden, won several
cups at this show. Mrs. Thornton Lewis

OF the two day show was the riding of
Miss Carol p. Smith on Cherokee, an
Indian pony, which was so spirited that
II was almost impossible to check him. On
the third jump Cherokee cleared five
feet for three foot jump and threw
Miss Smith so that she lost her stsrrups.
Before she could regain them Cherokee
broke for the fourth jump, and Miss
Smith went over In perfect form. The
feat was awarded with the Hawley cup.
Miss Isabel Haldeman of Louisville

ON the principle that having invested
In a smart and very good hat almost
anything will do for every day, I do
not present this idea as conclusive by
any means, but it may be one Of the
reasons why just now we are shown
so few small and simple every day
sort OF hat and most of the newest
shapes are OF the splendid velvet pic
ture hats.
Paradise feathers are predominating
as trimming. They sweep down, but
not up as heretofore, and thick sprays
are used more than the single feathers
we have seen so much OF in recent
times. Black paradise is really lovely
and so expensive that 1t need not
be dlsdained by even the most exact
Ing and conservative.
One Of the newest shapes which is
neither large nor small in size is the
round turban with the draped and
heavy brim. This is not an easy shape
10 wear as It is apt to look very heavy
so close to the face. However. 1t is
really very splendid for it is developed
IN the rarest and richest OF brocades.
heavily embroidered In gold and silver
and respondent In a mingllng of colors
enhancing to see.
The crowns of these wide draped
turbans are Of velvet or duvetyn as
the case may be and are entirely I'M
trimmed, as the present indication In
the matter of trimming is seen in the
draping Of the brim. Where feathers
are used they sweep down close to the
race even resting almost under the
chin in a soft curve. This way Of
placing the paradise is an old, old one.
The sun., 1919-08-17

this sort of fabric seems to demand
no other trimming. The brims of the
saucer shaped hats will be faced with
these soft angoras, while the crowns
are made Of velvet or duvetyn of a
contrasting shade.
In striking contrast to the soft and
furry hats of the material such as !
have been describing are the smart
tailored hats Of leather and soft kids
which are the vogue for the moment
in Paris and In London. These have
already been successfully launched
over here and are decidedly interest
ing Fancy a burnt leather hat
perhaps we shall have a revival OF
that art. Anyway the hats of soft
kid are unusual and rather good
though one cannot be SO enthusiastic
about them as about the really beau
tifui things of brocade and velvet and
duvetyn and beaver.
The best treatment / have seen of
one of the leather hats is shown in a
wide brimmed hat OF the sailor type
for which brown suede has been used.
This stretches tightly over the brim
except along the edge where soft
fold is placed to give a bit Of trim
ming. The under brim is faced with
brown angora and the crown is a
combination of the angora and the
brown suede put together with dull
gold threads. At one side sweeps
downward quite over the brim stun
ming brown paradise feather.
Strange to relate. London milliners
seem to fancy hats of white kid for
wear with tailored suits. This vogue.
too. is to be shown over here. bus there
is no telling as TO what success Il

Tassels of silver and gold are beauti-
full and set on wherever it is possible
/ to swing them from girdle, bracelet or
necklace. These golden tassels are q
revival of an old bit of jewelry asso-
ciated with our grandmothers' day,
and they appear to advantage when
mounted on a silken cord or at the
end of long chain of dull twisted sill
yer rored together.
There is never any use in railing at
this sort of augmentation. for as long
as there are women to wear, men to
admire, artists to create new and eX-
travagant things to purchase and own
there will always be a demand for
this sort of trinket.
A popular small bit of ornamental
ton has been the veil pin, which for
time was the only trimming seen on
the close fitting turbans of velvet so
popular during the spring. These lit
tic rhinestone pins were made as
hoops OF the small stones and worn
directly In front OF the small hat to
hold the veil on the hat hrim. A small
arrow and again tiny dagger were
thus used, though the simpler hoops
of tho rhinestones seemed to be the
most popular design. Companioning
this small veil pin for the front of the
hat is the veil hairpin for the back.
1t is the fashion nowadays to close
the edges of the veil at the back Of
the hat and for this purpose these
lovely little jewelled pins are brought
out They are silver hairpins mounted
with a manufactured pearl and set on
a small base OF rhinestones. Every
woman knows the method of twisting
a hairpin in place to keep the veil at
just the right degree of tishtness in
the back, therefore this small inven-
ton will be warmly welcomed.

and Venetian ornaments Of filagree
are copied in other materials such as
cellulo,d and porcelain and metals
which can be carved in the fine strands
seen in the italian things. All visitors
to Venice will recall with delight the
exquisite strands OF china and glass
beads displayed SO antrancingly In the
little shops of st. Marks Square.
Some of these beads are rarely orna-
mented with tiny colored flowers set
on the round or square beads in a
wonderful way and with great deli
cacy. These beads are now finding
their way into American shops and
experiencing a great vogue, for they
are really works of art and recall the
delights of the City of Beautiful Nom
sense, as Venice has been called. The
making Of these Venetian beads is one
Of the industries Of that city, Just as
is the manufacture OF the rare and
lovely lace.
Vivid Colors Find Favor.
The demand for vivid colors is in
sistent and loud, 70 that the quietest
frocks are relieved by these striking
threads Of color7-only they are not al
ways Just threads but wide strands of
color showing up most stril1ingly
against the darker background Of the
dresses. Big crystal beads looped to-
gether are also much esteemI. though
they resemble somewhat me crystal
drops on chandeliers Of long ago.
However, they are really lovely
enough to be worn outside OF Green
wich Village and one need not gasp at
the size.
Girdles of silver are seen frequently,
clasping with jewelled ornaments
hanging from strands OF looped silver.

ing through to the under side. The
effect is that of silken beads. AS this
is often done in contrasting colors 1t
makes most effective trimming.
Because of the great demand for
hats Of soft materials, such as duvetyn
and velours and velvet, and because
of the increasing cost Of these soft
and beautiful fabrics. the price is con-
tinually mounting. especially as so
much of the trimming used this year
is done by hand and is really hand
embroidery. One of the favorite eff
fects is seen in the use of simple BIOS
SONS, such as nasturtiums, single pc
tailed roses and kindred blooms done
in outline around crown and brim.
These are extremely simple to make,
so that we shall have a fad of home
made hats, doubtless, as almost any
one can embroider in the simple and
quickly made outline stitch.
High Draped Crowns.
The high draped crowns are again
seen. Sometimes they point up al
most a foot above the brim and are
draped in a series OF folds which keeps
them from being awkward and very
ugly, as they so easily could be. OF
course the brims which accompany
these high draped crowns must be
wide enough to set them Off success
fully and prevent a topheavy look.
Among the new trimmings are seen
much glycerined ostrich feather band
ing. This sort OF treatment of the
feathers makes them shiny and glossy.
The fronds are placed singly along
a narrow band to hold them and are
used thus nat against the brim in a
