HAVE DISTINCT STYLE

HATS FOR FAIR MOTORIST APART FROM OTHER MILLINERY. Softness Imperative, Which Means That Few Wires May Be Used— Arrangement of the Veil Is Matter of Importance. Styleß for the motorist have become quite settled as to hats which, to be within the nwde, must be rather small, fit well, \mh sufficient brim 'to protect the eyes. They must be soft; if of braid, a pliable variety is used. In the majority of motor hats

there are very few wires, in fact the fewest number possible to hold the shape of the hat. It is in the management of the veil i'hat the designers find exercise for their variety of ideae. They arousing hemstitched chiffon, either wire or narrow, and in lengths varying from lbi to three yards. Nearly all these veils are attached to the hat at the back or across the front or all around by a band of trimming which is placed where the brim and crown join. Small elastic cords are run in some of the veils, gathering them loosely about the neck. The veil is fastened at the back with a hook and eye. Longer veils are brought over the face and about the neck and tied in a loose knot. Wide veils, falling from the brim of the hat, are split up from the bottom to half the width of the veil. The split is finished with a narrow hem. Each half of the veil 1b brought to the back of the neck, where the ends Cross and are brought to the front and tied in a loose knot either directly in front or to one side. Vivid colors are in great demand. Bright red silk bonnets with royal

blue veils, blue with emerald green, white with green, etc., are everywhere, and tans are always stylish, and the taupe bonnet with veil to match continues in favor. But the furore for Btrong colorings which has marked this season has extended to motor headwear. It Is very pretty and Inspiriting. to see these gay bonnets where motorists assemble.
