danced about the tables.
A corsage bouquet of orchids and

reins. k
The ballroom was entered through
a forest of pines, the walls of the log
gia being completely concealed >y
these fragrant young trees. The
hanging moss mingled with pink roses
and asters, suggesting the Louisiana
marsh lands. Little rills filled with
goldfish, ferns and small palms on the
moist banks formed the decoration -if

cissi added their charm to the won
derful gardenlike appearance of the

And now it’s
the "peg-top hat. ’
The style, di
rect from Paris,
of course, has Just
struck America
Fashion experts
admit that the hat
will attract atten •
tion.
It can not fail
to do that, they
said, because the
hat has a real
“punch.” It Is not
fluffy, like the cre
ations with ai
grettes and such
things oh ’em
The make-up of it
is more like that
of a prizefighter’s
fist.
The "peg top”
has an outward
coating of velvet.
Its interior com
position is of good
steel wire, guar
anteed not to
break or bend
when it comes in
contact \Idlh a
human face.
There is a dis
tinct list to star
board in the new
style. The "list”
is what makes the
hat catchy and
"fetching.”
Tt gives the gen
eral design a rak-
appearance,
that of a
which has
just struck a coral
reef during a
heavy storm and
doesn’t know
where it Is going
thereafter.

forget-me-nots, formed the center-

with these flowers arose from the
plateau and at each plate was a. little
Dresden figure, in whose voluminous
skirts was concealed a tiny pin cush
ion. Those figures were dressed in
