Show 1 Various Silks in Spring Millinery L ( ,!-?!t.r ram-Q-' - i a. i PREPARE to reckon with moire - when the matter of your Easter bonnet comes up for consideration. This 1-andsome material has made a great success as a feature of spring millinery. In big overtopping bows, in standing ruffles and plaitings, and in the body of hats, moire ribbon is one of the assured styles for the approaching ap-proaching spring. Other ribbons and other kinds of silk are used as much but not "featured" "fea-tured" as taffeta is in the makeup of the new hais. For early spring nothing could be better than moire. It is elegance expressed ex-pressed in ribbon. The weave has the appearance of being heavy, al- though it Is not in reality heavyweight, heavy-weight, and lends itself to the standing stand-ing ruffles and plaitings and the big. vigorous bows which designers are using with such good effect. On turbans, standing brims and coronets are covered with moire laid on plain, or shapes of straw or silk braid are provided with soft crown end trimmings of moire. A smart turban Is shown here with a plaited ruffle at one side. The whole turban is in mustard-colored hemp and moire ribbon finished with a little lit-tle bunch of cherries at the front. It is an American design of French inspiration, and no French atelier would scorn to be sponsor for it. One of those pretty little brimmed hats made of silk braid, which have proved so captivating to the highest class of buyers, is shown here, trimmed with standing plaited ruffle of moire. There is a little wream oi forget-me-nots and other diminutive blossoms finishing the trimming. This bat is shown for spring developed in all the fashionable colors. A plain tailored hat with hemp brim and satin crown appears in a deep petunia color with standing ornament made of braid. For early wear and to outlast the Lenten season, it is in all ways a desirable model. The design is '-elegant for a suit hat, and is one of a great number showing soft crowns of silk.
