WRONG

C

OMING out of a cinema the other night I heard a young man say, "What extra- ordinary things women 'do. wear on their heads." He spoke with horrified surprise as he gazed at a nice-looking woman wearing a fashionable but unbecoming hat.

Then turning, to his own. girl friend he added hastily, "Of course, I don't mean you: Your hat is charming."

Truth to tell her hat was just as quaint as the other-woman's, but. it happened to become her, which only goes to show that it does not matter within reason how much. money you spend on your clothes provided you are willing to spend an adequate amount of thought.

MISS RIGHT

careless enough to choose a high hat

of the fez or Persian type.

At the expenditure of a little thought and no more money she could have found the bocom- ing felt hat worn by Miss Right with the created crown and turned up brim with a deep. peak over one eye, which gives her face the correct proportions.

YOUTHFUL Miss Wrong in the next

sketch has obviously been childishly foolish to choose the kind of hat that makes her plump little face look like a pudding.

The same face can be changed from the ridiculous to the distinguished by talifah ! draped felt cap with a quill to give it added height, and, incidentally, by the added length of the hair which is pulled forward over the checks.

THE third Miss Wrong has clearly Test all sense of proportion by leav

ing her intellectual but bulging brow naked under a halo brim. Her face cries out for the tall-crowned hat that Miss Right is wearing.

The girl who looks best in the halo type of hat is the one with the kind of face that one sees in the early Italian paintings of angels, with the smooth brow, the eyes set far apart, small features, and a modestly receding chin. English girls often have this kind of face.

These girls can also wear the Plantagenet cap which la-tall and slightly pointed at the back, trimmed with a veil which can be worn

in two or three different ways.
