hat designed by the milliner sings a
solo
In selecting new hat for Autumn
or Winter you have an enormous col
fashions been more varied. Don't
make the mistake Of thinking that
your task is simply to choose any one
Of these hats that happens to strike
you as most attractive and desirable.
Remember that these hats, inspired or
designed by the great artist milliners,
were made expressly for hundreds OF
individual women-women of differ
ent degrees of wealth and cultiva-
ton. women of varying tastes and of
bodily proportions.
If you find which one of these va
rious women-who form the clientele
of the great designers-you most re-
semble your task will be simplifled.
But since you cannot do this you must
use every bit of your good sense and
artistic judgment to discover which
sort of hat best suits you.
High crowns are an important con-
sideration-but they are very seldom
straight. conventional high crowns.
They are skillfully draped and creased.
The crown that is draped backward so
that a puff extends out at the back of
the head has come into considerable
prominence.
Velvet is. of course. the most i'm
portant fabric of the season-but 1t
has not entirely usurped the place of
felt. Many very smartly dressed
women here, as in Paris. are still
wearing shapes of felt. But it is very
fine felt that lends itself to graceful
manipulation as readily as does vel
vet.
More than ever before American
milliners quote the names of the
Evening star., 1926-10-03

great French modistes from whom
they take inspiration. You find these
charmed names written very large in
the newspaper advertisements-Lew
Agnes, Caroline Reboux. Rose Descat.
Maria Guy, Gaby Mono, Louise Marsy,
LOuisOn. DreSsmakerS who also make
hats, such as Patou and MolyneuX,
are also quoted. From the amount of
printers ink spent on keeping these
names before the public it must be
that advertisement writer's have good
reason to believe that thhere is some
thing very attractive about these
names in the eyes Of American wom-
en-. The interesting thing Is that to a
very large majority Of Americans they
are merely names-charmed names.
no doubt-but little else.
Every woman who is interested in
smart millinery at least knows the
name of Agnes. Her name Is espe-
cially associated with the new velvet
hats. She has made some charming
high-crOWned hatS-nOt stiff, conVen-
tional high crowns, but irregularly
draped high crowns, usually higher at
the back than the front. Sometimes
the crown is draped back, leaving the
top quite low, while there is an extern
sive draping at the back. She COM
bines orange and sable velvet.
Sometimes the milliners speak Of
these as hats with ''receding crown
lines" Though we'll suited to the
American types, hats of this sort can
hardly be bought ready made, for they
should be draped and arranged on the
head of the one who is to wear them
This season the name of Agnes has
been associated with what is known
as 'the African crown" 1t is derived
from one of her most successful
models. known as "L'Africain."
In Paris the talents Of Agnes rank
high. 1t was hat of hers, inspired

the hat is striking or easy to copy or
happens to strike the psychological
chord of the moment, it promptly be-
comes the mode. A hundred other
hats and shapes had been designed or
created for hundred other women
but this one becomes generally ia
nous.
OF late years some of the dressmak-
ers have turned milliners. This was
not only to increase their profits but
in order to make sure that the gowns
and wraps they produced should be
worn with suitable hats. A gown
needs a becoming hat as much as the
woman who wears the gown.
Some of the most successful hats OF
the season have come from these
dressmaking milliners. These hats are
in q way less individualized, less per
sonal. They have been designed TO
carry out the idea Of the frock or
wrap. The dress was perhaps design
ed for some special customer-but the
hat was a secondary consideration. 1t
plays an accompaniment. whereas the

| HERE Is no prevailing mode
now fashion - in millinery.
You may think there is, other
Il people may tell you there is.
But 1t is all curious delusion
and one that can easily be explained.
Such is the opinion of a. distinguish
ed French modiste. 1t is, in fact, the
characteristic attitude or most of the
famous designers of Women'S hats.
They eXalt their art. 1t is something
q little more elevated than dressmak-
ing or tailoring. one might as well
ask a great sculptor, 'What is the
seasons mode in noCturnes?' as to
ask the great modisteS TO name pre-
vailing mode in millinery.
Here is what this celebrated modiste
is said to have replied to this unfeel-
Ing question:
Our creations go to the public with
out the need OF launching new fash
ion. 1t happens. of course, that GER
tain hats are more frequently noticed
and often copied with more or less
taste. This repetition of the same
model might give rise to the idea that
there Is a new mode. In reality, how
ever, each house that deserves the
name of creator makes hat for each
client, according to her person, her
spirit and style, in arranging what
ever becomes nef DeSt IN form, Slaue
and trimming, keeping within the gen
eral lines that are adopted by women
at the moment. Such is the style of
the grande mOdiSte."
OF course. If you wanted to be ex-
tremely logical and felt like arguing,
you might say: "Ah, yes, madame
but you must admit that you must
keep within the general lines that are
adopted by women at the moment.
What is that but a prevailing or new
mode?"
Perhaps the real situation is this
The great French millinery designers
do approach their work like artists.
They allow themselves infinitely more
scope than the American milliner-
and because in q measure they create
style, they need not follow it save in
a very general sort of way. OF course,
there are prevailing styles of milli-
merry designing, just as tnere are pre-
vailing styles in portrait painting

The professor advanced. THE dean

Bob presumed that he wanted to
know what he had seen in regard to
the accident. But there was a cold
note In the professors voice. 1t
seemed like contempt. Bob thought.
And on the way to the deans office he
wondered.
The dean sat at his desk in his
private office. and looked up and
frowned as Bob entered. He began
with what he had to say at once.
We've thought a Ssyod deal of you
