Torpts have achieved distinction by
taking unto themselves some OF the
properties of the turban, while many OF
The turbans have a distinct haVor OF the
beret. There are also small l-Drliililleu
sailors to please the woman VINO ieets
she must have one Of these Jaunty hats
each season. .,.a
Hats of these types are first choice
for the coming season, appropriate 1or
