~ ERHAPS u is because of the un-
usually early season that the
summer hats now appearing are
so summery in character, There
are fewer feather trimmed models
than there were last year-in fact
feathers have sunk little in fashion
able esteem and the reason seems to
be that so many inexpensive little
manufactured hats appeared during
the early season with cheap, thin
ostrich trimming. Anybody could have
an ostrich wreath who could spend five
dollars on q hat and these thin, spind-
ly wresths OF uncurled and very much
split ostrich rather diminished fash
ions frenzy for feather trimming.
There are superb hats with tumbling
ostrich plu1nes - such handsome
plumes that they speak for themselves.
But a feather hat must now be very
distinguished IL it hopes to stand apart
from the proletariat models.
The summer hats now making their
bow to fashion are trimmed with soft
draperies OF silk, with shirrings of
ribbon, with odd little flower garlands
and fruit clusters and with crushed
flowers yelled with lace or tulle. The
formal hat for very dressy occasions
is likely to be Of lace. Only formal
hat however. may have lace trim
ming. Lace is absolutely debarred
from the sports realm whether on a
bat frock or blouse. Collars and
cuffs OF lace and fine embroidery are
permissible on q sport blouse but
more correct is the blouse Of tailored
SILK or Of handkerchief linen with
hemstitching and hand tucking.
Purple A Smart Sports Color
Deep royal purple seems 10 be the
stunning shade for sport wear this
ssason-perhaps because gray Is so
fashionable and because nothing har-
monies with gray so we'll as purple
and violet tones. Some OF the new
sport hats - so-called - are pretty
hard to tell from dress hats; In fact
they could easily become dress hats
IL worn with formal frocks. Yet they
are presented in the shops as sport
hats and are shown with the newest
and most exclusive sport wearables.
Such a hat Is pictured in the wide
brimnsd model OF deep purple straw
with q draped crown OF gray silk.

airy fabric 1t Is not so difficult to de-
eide. These are obviously dress hats
and you would not dream of wearing
either one Of them with a sweater and
sport skirt or with a tub frock. Lace
and tulle remember, belong to the for
nal realm of fashion and have no
place with sport wearables. One of
these little hats is roll-brim

of flexible straw. The other Is fas-
cinating poke shape with streamers.
1t is not at all necessary 10 have a
big hat for 6ress-up occasions; little
hats are Just as formal as big ones
now. The character of the hat and
its materials determine its class, not
its size. The roll brim model Is of
black straw and fiange brim OF tulle
rises within the straw brim, giving an
airy effect. This flange brim is deli
oateiy wired and the wires are hidden
under fine lines of Jet beads. Similar
lines Of beads run around the straw
brim over the black tulle that wells the
roses-crushed silk roses in shades OF
orange. A stunning little dress hat, is
IL not?-and worn with black canton
crepe frock and one of those fluffy lit
tie capes of black and white marabout.
In the neck chain are topaz and Jet
beads which echo the color of the
roses and jet in the hat.
The poke model is of lavendar straw
yelled with silver net. Many folds OF
the net give soft line TO the crown,
around which IS tied purple satin
ribbon. This ribbon. at the back,
falls in long streamers that are
knotted together just below the hat
so that the two ends fall as one. a
cluster OF deep purple grapes with
silver stem and leaves is caught against
the brim.
