Of Interest to Women
FABRIC HATS REPLACED BY STRAW
BY ANNE RITTENHOUsE.

1t is perfectly natural; you can't
blame them: you'd do it yourself II
you were milliner. You'd do your
best to keep current the fashion for
georgette and duvetyn and plush and
bingham and organdie hats-hats of
any sort of fabric that 1T takes an
expert to produce. instead of hats OF
straw or felt that can be bought al
ready shaped and finished waiting
only for the trimming. For IT seems so
perfectly natural that when hats of
the made-up sort are in style MILL
ners will have more orders
However, the pendulum Keeps
! swinging and as it has gone about
the limit in the way of made-up hats
/ it is bound to swing back to straw
and felt hats. And the backward
and leghorn especially, are making
their appearance from the hat boxes
of the smartly dressed women at the
summer resorts. And the prediction
comes persistently to us that felt hats
are going to be worn in early au-
tumn. OF course, you never know
what women are going to do until
they do it. But the time is ripe for
felt hats and some charming felt hats
have been seen in the most advanced
manufacturers showing of early au-
tumn goods.
1t is Not So Easy.
But you are not half so apt to get
along without your milliner as she
fears-not so much as you think
yourself until after you have tried to
trim your. own straw hat. 1t is so
simple The shape is ali ready. All
you must do is to twist the trimming
so, tack this ribbon thus, take few
swift deft stitches and then tack in
the lining. But ii isn't all quite 80
simply done as said and sometimes
the simpler the trimming the harder
1T is to get it into place.
In today's sketch is a model of the
sort that oft leadeth us into tempta-
ton in the way of trimming our own
hats 1t seems so simple. There is
a narrow scarf of white organdy
which is twisted around the crown
and tied in four loops and two ends
at the back. The hat itself is very
close fitting shape OF black milan
Victorian. by the way, with a tend
ency to roundness and an inclination
to stand up higher at the back than
at the front.
Orgnndy Again.
Now there is something rather dar-
ing in the use of white organdy for
hat scarf, but for the hat that does
not need to have very hard wear no
protest can be made against it. A

When You Furnish a Room.

Interior decorators make the sug-
gestion to the amateur who sets out
to get an effect in furnishing her
house that the best thing to do is to
build up from one object. If you
have a good oriental rug get your
color scheme from that. If a certain
highly priced picture is the best thing
in your room. then start with that
and somehow you can't go very far
wrong. If the room has a pronounced
wall paper that simply has to remain
on the walls, then by all means. tone
the rest of the color with an eye to
the wall paper. Little by little your
furnishings will select themselves.

Plan to Compromise On National Guard
 Provisions of Bill

Washington, May 26.-A compro- mise on national guard provisions o1 the army reorganization bill was reached today by the senate and house conference. Under it the enlisted personnel and officers of the national guard would remain state troops, but national guard officers would be mem bers of the federal forces through commissions in the reserve corps. An other clause would authorize q na- tional guard officer to head the mili- tia bureau of the war department and direct national guard affairs.
 The compromise broke the deadlock on the bill and was expected to pave the way for complete agreement.

MEMORIAL DAY.

Progress moves like an army, 1t has it's days of preparation and train ing; it's days of conflict and it's days of vindication; it has it's camp fires and it's memories.
 @sTo you who were soldiers of Amer ica in the great war 1 send affection ate greetings. What your arms have done for liberty in France your spir- it's will do for justice at home.
 So says President Wilson in his memorial day message to the soldiers in the late war.
 He further speaks of the country s affection for the men who fought and of the manly part" they are to play in the new order of things.
 It is very pleasant-sounding mes sage, filled with pretty phrases.
 But. has the United States any real affection for the soldiers of the late war? Has the average citizen any feeling of gratitude to those whc died? And are the soldiers deter mined to use the strength they show ed in France in an effort to make the United States and the world a better place in which to live? Are tho former soldiers determined to play q "manly part" in civil life?
 Those who lost sons and brothers in the great war will not soon forget There's many son who lost a friend who will remember. To them every day is memorial day. But to many others, those who served and those who did not serve alike, there is only sene day in the year when they think of the soldier dead, or the soldiers sEho returned; to many former sol diers the thought of serving thei, country in peaceful pursuits, to "mak. the world better place to live Tpuld be a strange thought.
 The war is over, and Americans by he millions, have forgotten. The pa Siotism born of war has died with Many of them. Each in his separate bhere is pursuing a selfish end nd if every day were proclaimed Me, 6orial Day, it would not change filings very much.
