MRS. LONGWORTH IS MILLINER

Washington Society Holds Show and Mrs. Taft Buys Three Hats.

Washington.—Mrs. Nicholas Long, worth, Miss Alys Meyer and Viscountess D’Azy were voted the expert society milliners of Washington recently, after their beautifully trimmed hats were exhibited and sold for fancy prices to the smart set at the hat show of the Children’s Country home. Mrs. Longworth contributed a small Alice blue toque of velvet which she

had trimmed. It was of the same modish effect that makes her own hats so famous. Miss Alya Meyer had a picture hat on exhibition that the girls all voted "a dream.” But the picture hats trimmed by Viscountess D’Azy surpass the most Frenchy, creation of the shops. In addition to making these hats, Viscountesss D’Azy was on hand to try them on her customers, and saw that each purchaser had the proper Parisian tilt to her bonnet. MHk. Taft purchased three hats, one for herself and two for Miss Helen Taft. Among the others who donated favorite chapeaux were Mrs. Robert Roosevelt, Mrs. Edward McCauley, Mrs. Murray A. Cobb, Miss Gladys Hinckley and Mrs. Spencer Cosby.
