Hurley of Tulsa, Okla., who has been named assistant secre tary of war by President Hoover, He succeeds Col. C. C. Robbins of lowa. Versatile Brims Feature Chapeaux Mors Elaboration, Greater Femininity and Color Noted in Modes. The millinery showings for spring and summer have been entirely com pleted and while no radically new themes were introduced, writes a Paris correspondent in tlie New York Her ald Tribune, l here was a concerted move toward more elaboration, great er femininity and more color than hist season. Agnes, Rose Valois, Onby Mono and Jean Patou represent an au thoritative cross-section of French modisles and while their various in terpretations are different, in the main the undercurrents are strikingly sim ile r. Thus chez Agnes a very up-to-date novelty is the ecru parasisol hat with a bent brim, uncovering the left side of tiie face and very short in front and still smaller in back, and longer at the ri"lit side than the left. This model lias a crown belted with a flat black, beige and brown tweed band that is fringed across the back, show ing Just tiie beige threads tied at the center bade, with a fringed-off scarf. At Agnes, too, are many natural col or straw hats as well as a few bright red and blue straw models. These hats are made of parasisol and are often trimmed over tiie brim with a flat, rather wide, velvet ribbon band that warms this cold looking straw. Anew ribbed straw jersey, specially knitted, is made into .fitted and draped toques that clear all the lower part of Hie forehead in front, covering the right ear and continuing in a round or pointed effect over (lie neck at tiie right side. Other new toques are made of specially woven leaves in fairly 1 hick and very light straw braid. Tiie leaves are large, two or three of them forming one toque. A Model in Two-Toned Straw. A Straw-Like Cloth Model With Vel vet. A Straw Model in Black and Whi*?. They are placed diagonally and are attached together invisibly or under a standing up ridge placed across the crown. They are often chosen in such contrasting colors as black and beige. A few toques are made of an ancient ivory Italian straw crown around which a black satin ribbon is draped to frame the face. There are poppy red and grasshop per green light felt hats trimmed with small tropical 1 bird's feather motifs that form standing-out fans or cock ades. Rlalticolor quills are placed round the base of the crown on other models, the quills replacing a ribbon. Rose Valois is showing some pana ma hats in natural tones with a fairly wide, sofl brim for sports wear. Site also uses light felt for spring. This felt is chosen in very yellow tints of red, such as vermilion, and in lumi nous blue-greens such as emerald. To accompany street frocks some of her small dyed bnkou and bangkok hats have no apparent brim in front, where they mold the head. Instead they have, on each side of the turned up brim at the back, a llared-out move ment that suggests a bicorn idea or a spiral coronet. Belts Finish Blouses in Modes for Spring The revival of the tuck-in blouse is one of those fashion cutbacks over which the majority of women ponder for some time, then suddenly are awakened to the fact that it is being accepted by friends and foes alike. That it really is an actuality. There are veritable tuck-ins and there still are overblouses, yet the newest idea is the latter simulating llie former. Beits of one kind or an other finish the end of the blouse or at the very least show that a waist line is not absolutely nonexistent. Belts may he a mere genuflection to ward the waistline, being extremely narrow, or the blouse itself may drape into a so<” swathed hipline sometimes with a tie, but in any event is very much belted. Skirts Dip at Back For the evening silhouette, skirts dip decidedly at the hack, with much fullness. White Blouse Trimmed in Black; Cape Back A black-and-white costume bids for favor for milady’s spring wardrobe. The white blouse shown in the picture shews a cape back, while the black satin skirt is circular. Black hat, black slippers and white hose com plete the outfit. Shoes Should Be Dried at Room Temperature This spring’s rage for shoes of all white leather or with white leather trim makes it worth while to suggest that all of the white leathers which have a suede finish—genuine buckskin of buck finished cattlehide —should be cleaned with a bristle brush, swabbed with the liquid white cleaners which the market affords and, upon drying completely, should he brushed lightly in one direction with the dry brush to straighten the nap. Of course there are the standard warnings that have been handed along to shoe users front generation to gen eration: Dry wet shoes slowly at room temperature and not on a radi ator or in front of a fireplace; don’t forget that wet leather burns and breaks quicker than dry leather, so don’t put your feet on a steam pipe that is hotter than the hand can en dure; the minute you take off a pair of shoes, put trees in them to make them dry straight. There is, however, one more sugges tion that once was current hut which, unfortunately, lias died out. Reviving it today will add length to shoe life: Oil the soles of every pair of shoes once a month or so. This applies not alone to heavy street shoes but also to dancing slippers whose soles are only a mere suggestion of leather. First brush off all dirt and warm the soles. Then swab across the bottom of each sole and around its edge with a cloth soaked in neats foot or some other animal oil, being careful not to smudge the uppers. This feeds the leather and makes the stitches hold longer. Summer Sports Prints Will Be Full of Dash All summer sports wear prints must be “young” and fresh-looking to be flattering. Checks, plaids, stripes, dots and diagonals are sponsored as hav ing the right amount of dash for sportswear, especially when they are in bright colors and treated in nov elty asymetric way as well as in the classic tailored effects. Modernistic patterns in two or three shades of bright colors or two intense bright colors on white or pale grounds are also reserved to sports wear. Tlie fact that prints have found new soils on which to bloom has doubtless resulted in new treatments of old de signs, and of anew series of stand ards of what constitutes a good print. While crepes of all kinds remain with us in an infinite variety, there -are printed linens and cottons galore most of which found favor during tlie re sort season, which presages their summer success. Hand Bags to Harmonize With Milady’s Costume Tlie new hand bags are being fea tured in leathers and color combina tions that will harmonize with the costumes. Tlie designs, too, have been affected by the recent trends in both suits and dresses. More detail is apparent and more than usual at tention is given to the frames, han dies and tlie use of applique work. As regards sizes, the new bags are. if anything, slightly smaller than those j of previous seasons, although they i cannot by any means be called tiny. ! Various versions of the pouch shape, I new envelope treatments with back | straps and top strap handles, and the frameless pouches are noted, as well as the square-shaped bags mounted on sturdy frames. New Hosiery Shades Among the 11 new hosiery shades I presented by one prominent house, \ for spring wear to harmonize with the recently announced shoe and fab ric colors, are eight belonging to the tan family, two grays and one soft blue shade, called lapis.
