do not particularly notice little
girls raiment anyway, you have no
idea of the style quality--the i'm
portance of minor style changes-in
millinery for the younger set. New
fall hats for the fappers are just as
interesting in their way as new fall
hats for grown women. Shapes change
just as radically, materials too; and
there Is always a seasons color that
has a special vogue. This year the
Jeune fille hats are very engaging and
every type Of girlhood can be hated
becomingly. Shapes are small and
medium in size and the new hats have
an effect OF hugging the head like
soft caps. Outstanding brims and
pertly outstanding britns are seen on
grown up millinery, but not on flapper
millinery and few of the models for
extreme youth have dashing or rak-
lshly poised wings or feathers. Rath-
err, one notes soft lines, face-framing
effects rich fabrics crushed or draped
and covered with wool embroidery
and here and there dropping fringed
ribbon or a dangling tassel.
Hats Worn Low On The Head
The young girl wears her hat pulled
far down over head and hair and in
most cases crowns are large in pro-
portion to a striking narrowness of
brim. But since most young girls
wear their hair well over ears and
cheek, whether the tresses are bobbed,
or made into ear-puffs or allowed to
hang in curls. the low-set hat with its
large headsize does not seem to eclipse
its wearer. The older woman has to
be careful to get hat large enough
to ut down smartly over hair and fore
head. but in youthful millinery the
difficulty is reversed. Mothers have
to be careful that the too-big hat does
not settle down too far on a small
girlish head and give clumsy effect.
When the girl has straight and not
very thick hair special attention must
be given to this matter of head-size

always carry a stock of inside hat

TO mako it set properly on small head.
Handmade Models Most Exclusive
The aristocratic little girl now has
her hats made by hand-like her
dainty linen dresses. And even the
manufactured models in millinery inn

cleyerly. One OF these exclusive
handmade hats IS pictured in the
