nose in front. and at the back trails
clear to the waistline. or the border
may be pinned back under the chin,
always a becoming mode to the woman
whose chin s.not as perfect as 1t was
in youth.
Some Of the new wells have silk en-
broidery in brilliant color, or in white
on black. Lace wells are very smart
for formal wear-they are not for
morning or shopping wear. And plain
mesh wells in semi-circulaf shape. with
narrow chantilly borders are rather
distinguished. Some extremely Partisan
wells, just arrived, are of navy blue
mesh with scattered daisies made OF
white organdy and appliqued to the
veil with gold thread-the daisies
grouped %irregularly in a border.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1920-08-06

Pick out your wells carefully and when
you hit upon a mesh or a pattern that
suits you (you will know because so
many people will say to you: How
well you are looking these days."
when you have on that veil). When
you hit upon such a veil, duplicate 1t
as nearly as possible thereafter.
Chenille dotted wells are not becom-
ing TO all women Usually these heavy
dots require a vivid type of beauty to
set them off. They can quite throw
into eclipse a woman of mediocre good
looks. Better are the woven dots;
small spots at the junction Of crossing
lines on the mesh. Sometimes a cross
bar mesh has tiny chenille dots and
these wells are often very flattering.
Plain mesh wells are becoming but
they have no particular smartness. No
chic, as the French would say. There
must be some relief for the plainness;
a s%calloped or bordered edge, or a
coquettish pattern in just one spot on
the veil. A pictured veil with fine,
square mesh, has a clover or sham
rock leaf design over one cheek
which gives 4 very arch expression to
the face. Such wells must be adjusted
carefully, for wrongly placed, the pat
tern may produce a grotesque effect
as for instance when o big chenille
dot gives the effect of a missing tooth.
You have all seen that unfortunate
effect. The most becoming place for
a small. coquettish pattern Is at one
side of the mouth where 1t somehow
suggests a dimple even If the wearer
of the veil has no dimple at all. Filet
and hexagon mesh wells have these lit
tie patterns, some with leaf motifs,
some with medallions of dots enclosing
a %thread-run flower motif.
Draped wells continue to be very
fashionable. They show no sign Of 60
ing out Of style with the end Of sum-
mer. Scores of new patterns are ready
for autumn and one Of these new wells
is pictured, u beautiful veil Of silk
hexagon mesh in smoke gray color and
with u graceful. delicate leaf design
for a border. The veil Is draped over
a little hat of silver brocade and plum
colored velvet and the adjustment is
correct for walking wear, the front

chin and MOI far down on the chest

7 would be going rather far 10 say
that a Veil counts one-half in the
effect of a costume; but certainly
q without eXaggeration. one may in
sist that 1t counts a third. You know
yourself how a fresh. new and stun
ming veil car make you feel very
much smarter than YOU were before,
even though all your other wearables
suit, hat. boots and gloves are pre-
clseiy the same. There is tremendous
value in a veil, and Frenchwomen
know this very well. a veil of one
sort or another is almost always in
cluded in a Parisienne's outdoor cos
tune; and by no means does the
Parisienne stick to a single kind of
veil. She has dozens of wells, each
correct with a certain kind Of cos
tune.
one hears so many American wom-
en- say: "Oh. yes, | wear face wells
but never draped wells" or the re-
verse. Why always a face veil? or
always a draped veil? Each sort has
its uses and It's occasions. There are

worn at the same time, also; when
motoring for instance. OF course, one
kind may be much more becoming
than the other kind. The short, thick
set woman looks best in a neatly ar
ranged face veil-she should never
wear u draped veil that sets out over
her ample shoulders like a mosquito
canopy over q bed. The slender. will
lowy woman is charming in IL long,
draped veil. and the angular woman
looks much better in this sort of veil,
which softens her lines. than in a tight
little face veil which emphasizes con-
tours. But, given the right sort OF
hat, any veil may be worn by any
woman-barring, of course the eccen-
trio and bizarre veilings that rely on
bold patterns or queer colors for their
effect.
1t pays to buy the best veilings. Not
only do such wells last much longer
and keep their shape better; but the
patterns are more e~xclusive-and usu-
ally more becoming and softening to

trimmed with coo. But the latter Is
one of the favored styles of Paris for
early fall. 1t is made Of burgundy

shades the eyes almost to a point Of

Czccho-S!oVakian Effects
The exhibition of Czecho-slovakian
embroideries and costumes recently
held in Paris has had a decided infu-
ence on new millinery. Brilliantly
colorful cmbroideries. spangles, and
appliques cf colored leather are EN-
ployed to give the czech touch. Rib
bons of gorgeous color and embroid-
cred in still more gorgeous hues-
particularly the scarlet and yellow so
dear 10 the czech heart-are twisted
into fall turbans. A very little of this
gay ribbon goes = long way and usual
ly a mere twist or knot of it is enough.
Painted and gilded quilts. yariegated
wings and iridescent ostrich fringe are
also employed by the milliners TO give
zest and color interest to fall millinery
models. The only all-black hats seem
TO be the big picture shapes for restau-
rant wear. and these hats are usually
rather airy in character, with black
lace brims or bows. Such a model is
pictured, its airy and lustrous black
ness Of combined lace and panne vel
vet very smart indeed with a simple
black dinner gown with lines Of tiny
jet beads. The string OF large white
coral beads adds just the touch needed
for contrast: and the young lady is
very we'll dressed for a restaurant din
ner on a cool August evening when
summary frocks look just a bit out
of-seasOn.

fronts around over your shoulders and
sew on some sort of fastening-metal
clasps, a cord loop and crochet button,
or a tiny cluster of flowers with snap
buttons underneath. The wrap. "a
worn at Longchamps, was drawn
around sideways on the figure, so that
the fastening came toward the left
shoulder and the left arm protruded
through the fringed opening. A slash
was cut at the opposite side for the
other arm. Most women, however, viii

~NERY seaso in millinery opens
f&zy with rather small and medium
shapes in the lead; and the first
~Afal models show no exception to
this rule. But in another way these
first models are n great exception TO
general rule; for they are almost all
colored hats-not black ones. Usually
black hats have prevailed in the early
fail showings; tables of untrimmed
hats showed black turbans and toques
galore and If you really wanted a col
cred hat you had to search ami search
and then very likely buy ii IN the
expensive class Of millinery.
But this season colored models are
everywhere and usually the hats are
OF velvet in rich. dark shades. Brown
is especially popular-and deep blue.
But there are copper colored hats and
green hats, taupe, gray and orange
hats-even garnet hats. Color Is to
be a feature of autumn millinery and
the color is to be in the hat itself
rather than merely in its trimming.
