The time will soon be here for those
exciting and fascinating excursions I"
the millinery shop in search OF new
millinery. of which much is expected.
The old millinery axiom that hat Is
becoming when one looks better with
IL on than without 1t. is a good thing
TO bear i'm mind. At the very least we
EXPECT hats. like mirrors, to "be to
our faults a little blind. and to our vir-
tues not unkind." Just how much the
right shape and the right colors can
do to transform face, is measured
often by the long price which small
bit of millinery commands. 1t Is the
intangible in millinery that is worth
more than anything else-the color
harmony, the beautifully balanced
lines, the poise Of the hat on the
head and its appropriateness. that are
worth more than mere material.
No one understands this quite so
well rs the woman who has reached
middle life. or passed it. She expects
her hats to do much for her in the
way of enhancing her good points, and
designers who specialize successfully
