Jasper County Democrat, Volume 19, Number 35, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 July 1916 — Some Panama Hat. [ARTICLE]

Some Panama Hat.

Hon. Charles Hartman, minister to Ecquador, made a brief visit with White county friends last week, enroute to his home at Bozeman. This i§ his first visit to the states since his appointment by the President three years ago. Mr. Hartman wore a real panama hat, w r hieh barring the per centage of middleman, cost him only sl7, made to order. The same hat, with transportation, tarifl and dealer's profits added would cost S7O in this country. The hea is more oppressive here than in Ec-quador.—-Monon News.
