CHEESEMAN'S
Millinery Now at
Its Best

Hats, with the air of New York
stu clinging to them and then
more hats with unsurpassed style,
some OF them still with . winter air
to them and others OF the spring
variety Just ready for the exodus
to the southland, have just reached
Grossman Bros. store in Moline.
Drawers and show cases blossom
as the rose, for the winter hats are
still warm and rich In color and
have wealth Of gold and silver
cloth, and warm reds and gorgeous
blues thickly encrusted with the
glltterihg metal.
Spring hats, so-called, are most
ly in black, with facings Of softly
glittering glycerined ostrich or
with dropping feathers. One with
. front turned back, a splendidly
tailored creation, has a rim Of
monkey fur across the front which
gives the smartost air. imaginable.
There are hats with bead orna-
ments which droop like gigantic
earrings from each side, small hats
which will make madame look an
absolute New Yorker. tailored hats
with brims widely extended at the
side which one can easily picture
are adding. dignity to the woman
OF size and splendid carriage.
Black and silver are charming
together in a rather small hat,with
q comparatively narrow brim
f<sh al tfrSx h 10 h~sv
black with touch Of silver, and
the entire crown Of the metal
cloth. Red seems to call for gold
and in its various shades, with the
bright metal touches and bits of
soft grey squirrel fur adorably
placed. would make any woman Of
taste determine to stretch her bank
account. There is one lovely
small model Of black and white
satin which seems to be so stylish
that It is too extreme for Moline,
but it's beauty.
Sport hats are in wondrous style
and varieties, something to suit the
most fastidious woman or the most
napperish flapper. Colors here
blaxon to the world that sport hats
are the thing, for they may be
worn any time and almost any
where, except to a. funeral.
Miss Edna Zwairn OF Dallas,
Tex. millinery expert who has
Just returned from New York, is q
clever saleswoman and is genuine
~ pleased to pull out the drawers
ard the boxes which contain her
treasures and 1T them to the types
they suit.
