Wider emphasis on varied crown, treatments brims than last autumn are the general rule, but principal interest centres around the numerous high-crown effects. High, straight crowns, after the manner of the masculine opera hat, more moderate shapes with fedora clefts and the very new and still slightly bizarre cone crown are the outstanding types. Unusual Millinery. The most unusual millinery in many seasons is featured in one fall collection. The new cone shape is presented in various interpretations.

In one instance it is of felt, unexaggerated and trimmed with grosgrain triangles. In another the cone theme comes to such a bizarre point that it resembles jester's cap. There is also offered an Italian renaissance model of black velvet and gold lace with a semi-turban brim, which gives the effect of a halo. Felt is the leading fabricblack, gold and brick the leading colors. Velvet Popular.

Velvet 19 easily the outstanding fabric of another collection, which sponsors numerous versions of the high crown and comparatively little brim complexity. The characteristic brim is quite regular in shape, and even when fairly large in size appears small by reason of the stately crowns which tower high above. Most frequently these high hat models are cleft in or near the middle, but sometimes they are peaked or ridged across the top directly at the centre, Feathers, flower and ribbon trimmings are freely employed, and the greatest of these, numerically, is feathers. Compared with recent seasons, an air of elegance is apparent at the showing. Rose and Blue.

Rose and light blue Ar6 the outstanding shades of the early autumn collection third Paris house, which strikes a decidedly luxurious note throughout. Shirred and corded velvets are frequently employed the base material, while trimmings include ostrich feathers, metal ornaments and fur bandings. The crowns in this collection are either draped to the headline or definitely square with no attempt made to follow the individual line. Capelines are employed and there is a definite falling away from small hoydenish shapes. Golden Wedding Is Celebrated at West End Home Mr.
