NOW "GRANDPA" HILL this WILL FORBID CENSORSHIP For the Wedding Cortege , 1 y NW .4 f i . 1 i -tt" "I f k A --K "1 " i f i Ware and rumors of wars fulled to divert June brides from their determi nation to have as lovely weddings as ever were etngM upon this distracted hut beauty-loving planet The great war has hastened ninny a wedding, and brides have been more than ever In clined to make themselves and the wedding cortege something superlative ly beautiful a picture to linger In the memory of the groom, even though Mars snatches him away and flings him to the other side of the world. Here are three hats from a -wedding cortege. , They prove that It takes more distractions thun we have now to .dampen the enthusiasm of designers of the most beautiful of all hcadwenr. At the center of the group there Is a state ly bat for the matron of honor. It Is made of Bond-colored mnllnes and pale gold lace and there is a mantle of the mnllnes flowing from a collar of the gold lnce. This mnntle-ls very full, and is to be worn with a frock In the same color. .i ; ;'. . . ; : Below and at the left the small lmt mnde of Val- laco over pink crepe georgette may be worn by either bridesmaid or flower girl. It has a short veil of pink tulle and a cluster of small pink rose buds for trimming. At the right a hut is shown made of White mallnes and lilies of the valley. It bus a huge bow' at the back with a long hanging em) of roaUnes. This Is swathed about the throat and face as shown In the picture. This hat may be worn by a bride who prerers It to a veil, or It may be made up iu pale pink for a bridesmaid who Is to attend a brldo wearing a veil. Knitted Braid. The vogue for. knitted trimmings, such ns collars and cuffs, pockets and belts, bus gained such headway that now .one comes upon a, frock trimmed with knitted braid. Truly, It is a bright idea with capital letters. How easy it will bo to make the new trim ming for your Jersey dress. You need not have It necessarily of wool, ei ther, though a combination of wool and silk Is lovely, especially If done In two colors. ' .; Braids of silk, twine, ' 'cotton and even ribbon enn be knit on needles with the plnln knitting stitch or a variation of purling and knitting to make fancy patterns. Twine braid for a linen suit will be very good looking and cheap, too. .. .,. I'ltlOSIDUNT SAYS NKWH WlltliS WILL llli ItESI'UCTHD. KniUito Amendment On Question Ol SeH rlniiitlinir Hy.
