It is a commonplace now among milliners that the high trim is rapicly taking the place of what they call the droop trim. ‘This means that they will pile flow- ers and bows and feathers up on the top of the hat, usually in the middle of the front, but sometimes toward the back: and that the fashion for t‘!:dng feathers and ribbons and gar- ds of flowers so that they brush STRIPPED AIGRETTES FORM THE ORI TRIMM ON THIS BLACK SATIN TOQU shade the neck and droop oulde on the wane. transition cannot be a quic In fact, there are some women who 100k so Very much better in ha of drooping 1i hd to whom down- -h more becom- d bolt upright, ing than trimming e to cling to ¢ would Watore one can-treat the b hgently a certain amount of knowl edge about the hair itself is neces- gary. So let us study one single hair today. find out how it is made and 'what affects it. and then we shall know better what to do for a whole scalpful of unruly hair.

The olor of the hair depends upon the Ipigment deposited in the middle layer; its intensity depends on the amount the old fashion as long as possitle. It is not often advisable to com-| promise with fashions. Usually you | would do well to adopt one mode or | the other. But there is decidedly an | advantage now in compromising be- tween the two extremes in hats. Re- tain just enough of the droop and downward drapery to be becoming to vyou, to give softness and grace of; line, and then—for the sake of the; new mode—bring in the high front lines as well. This compromise has been effected in a good many of the new hats. Lewison has a large hat with the brim brought down very low at each side and in back, It is slit in front and_brought as high as possible, with |a ribbon bow with wired ends and loops further emphasizing the height directly in the front. From Lucy Hamar comes a very wide-brimmed, | | picturesque @ hat. The wide brims| droop toward the shoulder, and velvet : ribbons_are fastened to the brim on each side, tying loosely at one side. In contrast to those drooping lines is i a group of artificial fuchsias formed | into a narrow high ornament directly in the front. The evening headdress or hat also shows this tendency to high trimming together with a clinging to the old droop. Often a feather is placed so as at the same time to careen up in front and to brush the shoulders. In the sketch you see a toque of black satin with stripped aigrette trimming. It is looped around cleverly to form scrolls at the side, over each ear and down to the shoulders and then up feathers and flowers drooping down- ward and attached them to the lower part of the brim instead of to the top or the crown it seemed like an ab- The proper place for trim That seemed ev ikely to annoy vour nei athers waft | our own shoulders instead of -i ing outward to flop in their faces or upward to obstruct their view. the downward drapery lends | tones to the face and hair that are always becoming.
