Feather stick- ups are used on smart hats, sprays of fine flowers and massed blooms adorn some of the swagger shapes. Fruft, grapes, worsted embroldery, fancy pins and ornaments, lacquered quills, elegant ostrich plumes, in fact there are endless new and charming touches to give a hat the stamp of style. ° Novel is the sport hat and@ matching scarf, in popular fabric cloth, with worsted embroidery in colors.
