Just now millinery shops and their
patrons are concerning themselves
with hats for midwinter. Turbans and
off-the-face hats, small and medium in
size, make up big percentage of the
displays, although they are not alone
IN their glory. There are plenty of
large. picturesque models for those
wEo wear them we'll But the smaller
hats are prominent in every class of
millinery; chic tailored hats for the
models for afternoon wear-all prove
successful in the smaller shapes.
The Napoleon hat, full of dash and
style, seems to be the inspiration of
many models. One Interpretation of 1t
appears at the top of the group of
small and medium hats shown here.
This is a brilliant hat of black paon
velvet adorned with long stitches of
chenille and an occasional velvet bios
som set fiat against the upturned brim.
This is all that can be told of it in
the way of description but the picture
shows its style and youthfulneSS-the
intangible things that make it fit COM
pany for handsome afternoon frock
or at home with tailored coat.
The small velvet turban at the left
made of tucked velvet, will appeal to
the matron who insists upon smart
millinery with lines and shape suited

equal to battling with the cold, even
though they are not as sturdy looking
as the woolly coats. Besides these
there are many plush coats made like
the woolly ones, usually in dark colors
with plush collars that initiate beaver
and buttons covered with beaver plush.
They are as warm as the woolly coats
and as dressy as the velvet ones.
Finally, there are fur coats for little
folks. These days one cannot even

rels have been sacrificed to make warm
coats for the small girls, white Dummies
for the tiniest ones and just plain rab-
bits for girls as big as the little miss
pictured. The shawl collar looks as

Cottontail furnished the fur and the
furrier dyed it. 1t Is not prettier or
more comfortable than the other coats,
but it requires much more work to
make it-and thereby hangs the tale
of its long price. Such a coat costs a
little more than hundred dollars.

Against the coming of midwinter,
new lot Of coats, for lucky little girls,
have come to light in the shops. If
they ever get close enough to Jack
Frost to speak to him their wearers
will be sure to laugh In his face for it
will take his bitterest mood to prove
him an enemy to their comfort These
coats are most often of thick, soft
woolly cloths made double-breasted
and having the contest of collars. Some
of them look as If Mary's faithful
lamb had been skinned and its pelt
converted into coat without going
through the hands of the spinners and
weavers. Lovely and coy describes
them and they are, of course, the prod
uct of the looms which do miracles
with woods. The little coats of thick
cloths are plain with inset pockets
and sleeves that reach to the knuckles,
so that hands thrust into pockets are
entirely lost sight Of. They are made
with turnover collars and narrow belts
of the material and they are long
enough to reach below the knees.
There are some pretty coats of vel
veteen lined with silk. These are
sometimes made with blouse and skirt
and sometimes straight. Cuffs and
very wide muffier collars of fur fabric

Scores company's Moves.

The opinion of the utility board,
after receiving the application Of the
company for the restoration Of the
seven-eent fare, with a penny for a
transfer, reads in part: The applica-
ton was passed on comprehensiyely
by the board in the original applica-
ton, and no new facts have been pre-
sented which would justify the board
in changing its conclusions. The APP
plication is irregular in that it is not
made pursuant to any section of the
statute The board has endeayored
to solve a serious problem in a prac-
teal manner by permitting rates to
become effective to meet changing
conditions, and thus enable the com
pany to operate The rejection Of its
last effort and the assertion by the
company of its legal rights precludes
the board from consideration of any
applications excepting such as are pre-
sented to it in conformity and COM
pliance with the provisions of the
statute. 1t is apparent that the APP
plication is not designed to meet the
present situation nor the present de-
mands of the company, nor is it in ac-
cordance with the claims of the COM
pany as to the amount of revenue to
which it is entitled.
"The application is not made in
good faith, because there could only
result further applications for in
creases in the fiat fare There is no
certainty that the fiat fare sought to
be restored would yield as much as it
formerly yielded On the contrary, it
is highly probable, under existing con-
ditions, that it would yield diminished
revenue to the company to an extent
that would require further increased
fat fare or cessation of service.

Might Restore Normal Traffic.

From the fact now before the
board in that part of the case in
which the value of the properties Of
the Public Service Railway company
is under investigation, it is apparent
that, with the continued existence Of
high cost of operation, some other
method of charging than a fiat fare
will have to be considered. The board
reiterates its conclusion, contained in
former reports, that it is highly deS;r-
able that the zone plan be permitted
to have a fair trial that a fair trial
would be more likely to be had under
the schedule of rates recommended by
this board than under any other rates
proposed and that said schedule of
rates would yield to the company as
much revenue as the seven-cent rate
with one cent for a transfer, would
yield under existing conditions"
The board recalls that Mr. McCar-
ter said that the company was willing

ed by the board, and the report then
concludes: The beard assumed that
the president meant what he said, and
thereupon recommended a schedule Of
rates which it believed and still he
lieves would approximately prodrce
as much revenue as the alternative
flat rate would produce, and would
probably do much toward restoring
normal traffic"
