By WILMA LAVILLE

The small hat is the popular
hat of midSeaSon. The reason
is perfectly obvious. A brim
will not fit comfortably into a
high fur collar. so even those
of us who bought hats with
hrims lay them aside and buy
another hat as small as pos
Sible, and doubly comfortable.
And Of these small hats there
seem to be tive important
types: beretS or tams, which
ever you choose to call them,
and turbanS. They are equally
popular, one as smart as the
other, so it's just a matter Of
which is the most becoming to
you..
Draped to Fit
While we're buying these new
hats for immediate wear most
of us look to the next two or
three months, and either buy
an early straw hat, or a hat
with a touch of straw on it, to
take the spell of winter out Of
our wardrobeS.
We discussed the many new
and fascinating StrawS that
have come out last week, and
today we have had some hats
sketched that are made OF one
of these StrawS, crystalline.
1t is closely woven, slightly
rough, and beady or shiny.
Most hats made of it are in the
The Washington times., 1932-01-04

dark colors that go with coats,
black or brown, with an oCca-
sional dark green or navy
seen. Many of them have the
new height at the back, and all
are beautifully stitched, tucked,
draped and shaped in other
feminine ways so that they are
utterly individual and attrac-
tive.
Trimming Is Used
One of the hats sketched
shows the beret type, pulled
far over on one side like the
Florentine tamS that we hear so
much about. The other is the
more simple beret type. The
tam has d stiff quill in the
back. and is folded for shape.
Folds alone give width at the
side of the untrimmed hat.
Nearly all shapes take a pryStal
quill, a bunch of tiny bead-like
flowers or fruit, or a buckle or
ring, simple trimming always.
These hats are extremely new
looking and smart, but they are
modestly priced in a Washing
ton store.

Mrs. Read vanished Wednesday night.
She drove into Placerville yesterday in

bauer, as they slept by the mountain
roadside. Trumbauer also is in Jail.

Read was carrying pistol and ad-
mitted forcing his wife to accompany
him.
He said he thought if he could get
her up here away from everything"
Sheriff Wood added, he could talk her
out of divorcing him"
