FLOATING BOWLS FOR. COOLNESS

Flowers can help the hostess lo solve the problem of how to make her rooms look cool.

Floating bowls have not lost their appeal on the modern highly-polish- ed luncheon or dinner table, and there is something very cool and attractive about this arrangement, Roses or any flower with firm bloom are best for the purpose.

Stems should be cut regularly. It is especially impor- tant to cut them when they are first received.

The modern home lends itself best

to the more distinct colourings, and the younger hostess appreciates flowers what are bizarre and out of season, whether they are cut flowers, growing plants or in baskets. Even hard colours make an extremely effective display against the severe lines and background of modern interior decoration. It is often possible to pay a subtle compliment to hostens or friend by choosing flowers that tone in with the scheme of decoration.

This has a shallow crown and flat flowers or a bow or strings upon it. It is really large and curvets round the face, usually in becoming lines. With Buffy frocks it is charming, and it goes well with length. These hats are legion and they are kept

Some of the tipped-up hats are rather like oval muffins, laid along the top of the head and trimmed with little frills. They may be made entirely of even of organdie, or sometimes feather, which is usually treated in as unfeathered a way as possible. That is to say, it is rolled up into Hittle curls or sausages, its shape rather contradicting its material and therefore atimulating curiosity. Many brims, both large and small, have a stiff piece of transparent

Also light-weight felt hats, like those worn by little boys, are used to go with woollen attire. These turn up all round, but they go well on to the head and are comfortable and becoming to meat people.
