The bat comes back in fashion Katie Sherrod rather well on her own although six years ago she told The New York Times "I can remember begging the stores to sell my hats" Last year she sold 2000 hats ranging in price from $55 to $225 Her mother who is 90 and lives on the outskirts of Paris told the Times "Hats are back because feminine fashion is back Skirt lengths no longer matter so what's important is from the waist up" Hats went out in the mid- 1960s Jacqueline Kennedy's teeny pillbox hats were the last of the dying breed As hairdos got bigger hats got Cecil Johnson joy spread and rose to a crescendo of celebration That was the genesis of that peculiarly Texan annual event called Juneteenth a day on which black Texans traditionally feast and engage in other forms of exaltation to commemorate the arrival of the news of the emancipation in this state President Abraham Lincoln had actually issued the Emancipation Proclamation on Jan 1 1863 Lincoln had taken that step reluctantly because neither he nor anyone else had any clear notion of what to do about the ex-slaves once they were freed Indeed Lincoln had actually favored a scheme of re-colonizing the former slaves in Africa But that idea encountered stiff opposition from both white and black abolitionists Ultimately Lincoln decided that the slaves had to be freed in order to assure a Union victory That action invested the Union forces with a heightened sense of purpose and enhanced the military strength of the Union by the infusion of thousands of black troops into SEAM omaorgia2413 CM AMCH oxl 0 virldE2 0 0 LAvr SEARS FT WORTH TOWN CENTER ONLY smaller until they disappeared altogether But today there are definite signs of a rebirth which gives me hope for humanity I say this because I agree with milliner Patricia Underwood who says that you have to be slightly eccentric to wear some of the more extreme hat fashions popular today I think anything that encourages a little eccentricity among us can only be good It takes a certain amount of confidence to wear a hat because people will automatically look at anyone wearing one whether it's a man or a woman For example have you ever seen anyone ignore Steve Murrin? If we all take to wearing hats we're going to have to be ready for some changes in our lives To assist you in preparing for this I did some research Here's what that premier fashion expert Miss Piggy had to say in Miss Piggy's Guide to Life about the wearing of hats: "One's chapeau provides the perfect opportunity for a profound fashion statement Your the ranks The Emancipation Proclamation had already played its crucial role in detcrmining the outcome of the Civil War by the time news of it reached Texas After the initial joy the news generated the ex-slaves in Texas as elsewhere in the South were to learn the bitter truth that the elimination of slavery would not bring them full rights of citizenship A century would pass before descendents of the ex-slaves would be able to shake off a legally enforced second-class citizen status a century of exploitation repression discrimination protest and progress Still emancipation day was celebrated with varying degrees of enthusiasm by blacks in Texas throughout that long process as the pivotal event in their history in this country In many communities Fort Worth for example blacks ceased to emphasize Juneteenth during the late 1950s and '60s The push for integration was on in those years and the celebration had become identified in many minds with second-class citizenship Juneteenth had been the only day on which blacks were permitted to use such public facilities as the zoo and to ride in the front sections of city buses Such policies were considered insulting by many There was no official Juneteenth celebration Friday PM June 17 1988 Fort Worth Star-Telegram I Section 1 Page 23 hat should not merely say Ekre is my head' but rather it should convey a sense of allure mystery even intrigue I fere moi's chapeau is saying Oui I have time for one quick chocolate malted in that cafe with the umbrellas that have tables on their handles but then I must board the Orient Express for a rendezvous with the Duke of Candelabra in the lovely yet sinister Kingdom of Rutabagia' And what to do if someone you like is wearing an ugly hat and she asks you to give her your honest opinion of it?
