Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 47, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 February 1916 — Hats and Faces. [ARTICLE]

Hats and Faces.

A Boston man went down to Hartford and said to the Motherhood club of that city. “If you have a 29-cent face don’t wear a S3O hat.” Of course, the Boston man didn’t make it clear to the ladies with Hartford faces just what the hat-and-face ratio should be. Even a 29-cent face might hesitate over wearing a 29-cent hat. On the other hand a woman with a SSO face could scarcely be expected to don a SSO hat. No, the Boston man is wading into deep water. He quite overlooks the eternal law of compensation. Let the 29-cent face wear a S3O hat. It may distract attention. As for the woman with the SSO face, she doesn’t need any hat. —Cleveland Plain Dealer.
