sizes which mark tho hats OF this
Spring from those OF previous sea-
sons. For the tailored hats there are
the calsomined ostrich. lacquered
quilts with painted designs In batik,
quills of ribbons and chenille. This
quifl trimming Is usually placed on
the back brim OF the medium shaped
hats, which invariably turn up n bit
at the back. When ostrich Is used

Birds-shadcs OF the Audubon so
ciety-are the latest fad used In
Paris as n trimming and will be
very popular here In America. We
will not. however. use the real
stuffed bird, for our birds are to be
made Of pasted feathers and with
paper bills. A real good bird is
worth several paper bills II one Is
to believe the wholesalemen. Par
rots and parrakeets are the birds
most in demand, though few drab-
looking sparrows are shown. Che
mile birds embroidered on straw
are also very effective.

blue or lavender tone in 1t. Corn
colors range next in the line of pop
ularity. Pond lilies, magnolias and
nasturtiums are among the prettiest
flowers in this tone. Lacquered
flowers and leaves are favored for
the cluster trimming.
Ribbons-when one mentions rib.

Ruban Bagatelle at once, for 1t Is
the most beautiful ribbon put on
the market in years. 1t has a high
ly lustered surface which looks very
much like patent leather, but has a
softness to II that yields to any
draping. 1t comes in every conveiv-
able shade and width. Whole tur-
bans are draped of 1t and the mar
row widths are used as rosette
trimming. One model of this ma.
terial is made in the familiar turned
up style in navy blue and is em-
broidered in jute. White plush rib
bon edged in colored grosgrain adds
q new touch to the sport hat.
In parts of the country where
long winters do not permit the early
wearing of straw hats, satin hair
cloth, quilted Canton crepe, and the
candy cloth materials are used for
the between season hat. Hair cloths
and candy cloths can be fringed to
form the new back winged effect.
The poke hat will undoubtedly be
the most popular shape Of the sea-
son, with its front brlm slightly
rolling off the face and its back
very short. Large picture hats are
said to be popular abroad in the
advance spring models. After sew
eral years reign, the off-the-face
type is on the wane and the picture

here in America.
