IN Paris. they tell us. hats may be
either small or large. and the
preference is given to the medi-
um shape. Which is certainly varia-
Bile enough to please every taste. And
II you have been to the millinery
openings. as I hope you have. or you
will have missed a marvellous picture.
you will agree that this is quite true.
Just as you have settled upon an
Exquisite model of golden duvetyne

head and are Immediately intrigued
by a wide, graceful creation of black
velvet with no other trimming than
a cleaning arrow of silver thrust
through its upturned brim.
And when you decide that this is
quite the smartest thing you have
seen. someone calls your attention
to one of the new poke models in

front. We are featuring the larger
hat. especially for dress. but the
business woman nearly always de-
mands the smaller models. For
these duvetyne offers a fascinating
medium. You will see many duve-
tyne hats Of extreme loneliness.
One thing which stands pre-emi-
nent in all millinery displays Is the
fact that reserve OF trimming and
smartness OF line go hand IN hand.
The dowdy models are always over
trimmed to conceal their cheapness
of making and idea. And by cheap
ness 1 do not mea inexpensiveness.
All hats are far more inexpensive
than they were last year. which
will be pleasing words for all TO hear.
since it is an absolute impossibility
nowadays to own but one hat We
must have several, and each should
be SO selected that as we don them
they not only harmonic with the
costume. but soften the lines Of the
face, and complete the picture as q
whole.

rest.
One of the most unusual of cush-
ions to come to my attention is a
large fan cushion of g~old-colored
silk. 1t is quite a simple matter to
obtain the effect. All one has to do
is TO take a round cushion and cut it
in half and the cut edges again.
and. behold, there are foundations
for two fan cushions. Now proceed
to place the go~ld-colored taffeta in
pleats, just as though a round pleat-
ed cushion were to be made. This
means a straight piece of silk with
the straight ends stitched to and
along the straight bottom of the
cushion which has been formed by
the cutting Of the cushion in two,
these ends meeting in the csFter.
gather or pleat the entire width to a
central point at this straight base
line. Already a fan of the silk is
formed. Turn the free end or top in
the depth you wish the frill to be
around the edge of the fan when the
cushion Is finished, and proceed to
gather or pleat it. as you wish
either way is effective. The fan is
now complete.
A Cushion Of this sort may be fin
ished in various ways. II the fan of
silk is made. on both sides then the
silk should be twice the width OF the
single side and should be folded
back and gathered and made to meet
at a central lower point on the OPP
posite side. Rather than gather the
silk az the outer edge with a simple
running stitch TO form the friIl for
the top OF the fan, It is much more
effective to stitch a narrow casing

TASTEFULLY CHOSEN CUSHIONS SPELL
BOTH BEAUTY AND COMFORT

AYoTHING has been so overdone
IN as the cushion in years past,
and that is one reason why
some women hesitate to have any
number of them about. One can
make as many mistakes in making
and selecting cushions as in select
ing pictures, and that rs saying a
great deal, let me tell you. But the
right cushions are as highly deco
ratiye as a colorful piece of pottery
and more CHEEKY because of the com
fort which is known to accompany
their gaiety. Very delightful is a
patchwork applique cushion. One
ear make them in almost any color.
They are incest for the living-room
when made of silk, of course.
l recall a round cushion of biscuit
color silk-just a tint deeper. in fact,
than the unbleached muslin used TO
make the quaint applique patchwork
spreads. Upon this was patched silk
Futurist posies in striking eolors. A
Few green leaves were appliqued up
on the foundation and then tendrils
in a fine running stitch of green silk
gave a feathery appearance to the
design, which would otherwise have
appeared a bit too solid. The cush-
ion had the material cut circular
and simply stretched across it. and
then the seam which ran around the
edge, formed by the meeting 81 the
back and front. was bound in green.
This green binding could be replaced
by another color used in the design

One young couple who felt that a
car was decidedly beyond their means
until the husbands business demand
ed il worked out a system whereby
the car is almost self-supporting for
pleasure purposes. They hunted up
a nice strong candy box and divided
it into two compartments. n mark

the business for gas and wear and

Paris creations and show the French
idea of turning up abruptly at the

That the humblest little shop girl in
Paris wore her hat which cost but a
few francs far better than we donned
our most expensive ones. But, ac-
cording to a woman whose hats are
known far and wide for their chic

longer true.

FURNISH ROOM IN HOSPITAL

Boy scouts Of rerre Haute, Ind,
have provided the furnishings for .
room In the new Union hospital OF
that city. The Terre Haute Star in
an editorial commenting on this good
turn makes the following statement:
The gift OF the scouts Is partcu-
larry appropriate since It represents
al effort on the part Of the various
troops TO enlarge their work. II has
meant a sacrifice on the part OF the
boys. To some II was merely refrain
ing from contemplated pleasure In rec
reatlOn TO devote the time In earning
money for the troops contribution.
Other boys have engaged In various
enterprises 10 raise troop funds. They
have adhered strictly TO scout ira
dltions and asked no contributions OF
the public for their funds.
THE gift means more TO the hos
pltal than the amount OF money pro-
yided to furnish the room. II has
brought the boys Into intimate relation
ship with the humanitarian enterprise
and their interest iR such work Will con-
tinue. They will realize the good their
has done and VIII b
ready 10 give their efforts TO other
worthy causes. The gift Is an encour-
Rgement to the directors OF the hos
Dital. II proves a larger public inter-
st in the welfare work. II Is an In

that are inclined TO as
