NEWS OF TO
THE COMING OF THE FALL
There’s a brisker kind of feelin’
That’s a stealin’ In the air,
An’ it starts the brain to reelin’
At the thought of trees all bare;
For the summer 4s retreatin'
With the birds and flow’rs and all,
And we find ourseves a-greetin’
Now the cornin’ of the fall.
Now the goldenrod is glowin’
Where one time the grass was
lush;
Where the violets were growin’
Now the scarlet sumachs blush;
Now the meadows russet yellow
Where once grew the grass so
tall,
And we see, through sunshine, mel
low,
Now the cornin’ of the fall.
The muscadines are failin’
And the wild grapes now are ripe;
In the distance, softly callin’.
You can hear a bob-white pipe.
And full soon, old autumn flyln’,
We shall hear the wild geese call,
As we bid good-bye to summer,
For the cornin’ of the fall.
—James Wells.

The up-turned hat brim seems the
most popular just now judging from
these attractive hats which are pur
ported to be the very latest word
in smartness. And it is a refresh
ing thing to be able once more to
get a glimpse of milady’s eyes. Per
haps even her eyebrows may be
bold enough to emerge from the
shadow of her hat before long.
The hat at the top of the illustra
tion is fashioned of the new black
felt. It has the square crown, but
is saved from any suggestion of
mannishness by the low drooping
black and white ostrich plume which
placed on the crown at the right
side and hangs far down over mi
lady’s shoulder. It is a decided ly
Dfcectoire style.
The chapeau in the center is a
different type and more suited to all
weathers. Black pressed plush is
the material used—one of the new
est of the fall hat fabrics. The up
turned brim is faced with corded
silk and a simple ornament in front
and band about the crown are the
only trimmings.
The last hat shown has a more
unusual type of brim which widens
decidedly at the left where it is
caught by a long black and white
feather fancy. It, too, is black felt.
These little hats are all refreshing
changes from the small, semipoke
shapes with which we have been
deluged for so long.
