Whatever the signficance of shirts
In this era, other items of dress
have plhyed their larger parts In
years gone by. History suggests that
people dress not so much for protec-

to denote differences In social rank.
Hats have played their large part,
for instance. Everyone Is familiar
with the three ,ornered hat which
Napoleon made famous. 1t became as
significant for his time as did the tri-
colored cockade of tfe French revo-
lutionists. Was the three cornered
hat OF Napoleon designed to continue
the tradition of the cockade. or was
1t Just fashion of the time? AT any
rate. the Napoleonlc hat continues to
hold favor.
