I 5ivJri. 1.-" S ; Acs Seen j2(ieS Whit would Spring mean without the OUR most important Sunns bonnet? Tlioi- who hnve not shopped early had test "n ike Immediate plans tor a jaunt or two through the shops, before the final Moi'tlnn la made. For It will need Trent discrimination to make a choice rom the fascinating array of riotous f0l"r- Of course, one always says, I want only a tit of a toque, or something large and flopps Just awfully striking and titmsr.nl." But whoever stops to think, when raying thin, how much more time Is r.pent In dressing one's head than In chooeircc a becoming frock or selecting lihoes. Hats seem to ha somewhat hu man, do they not? The average wo man starts to find among the shopn that oil" dashing Htll hat that seems liomehow a part of her. However, her lack will be far easier this Season, for there are Innumerable artistically mn.le hats, unusually beoomlng having juht that touch of something which tm.k.s them altogether Individual ami desirable. Prrltaps the most striking note ot he neiistr, is shown in the mysterious Influence of the F.nst. It seems that nil the charm and mystery of Kgypt been embodied by a drooping ni i Mld of small hats. This droop 1 mituajed by an ornament, a flower, h feather placed ho that It hangs down ward a bit and gives t" fleet of an cirnuumnt, such as Is worn iu the Mgyptlan headdress. This new typw iif li.it U worn decidedly low on the forehead and far down over the ear BhmvicB very Hi tie of the hftir, this tii..kii an nltructlvB frame tor the fact.. wniti a hat Is enticing In its sim plicity. Apparently all sorts of things arc uued for trimmings thews days. For Instance, a little imported model called the "Sphinx" Is trimmed with three ! celluloid mommies of the siiiart-t-M luiitt. Then what could ho more mibinn than n Hpnnlsh comb as a head oriiammt? The shape on which it Is nwnl is quite mall and soft In lis Ppnn inh effnct, made of henna color draped mall"-, with n tiny roll brim, the uu-(lei.-l 1 f which has an inoh flange of iuul iti, n tortoise shell spangles made into a I ami, and at the side is the re Idlcn of a Spanish comb made of the nam,- sequins. Hince the shape is small luirt li t (-i sringlv, it gives the offeet cf a comb I-nitiK slock through, the hftir. Many of the shapes arc again Inclln eit in the off face effects, large floppy luod-.l.-., but mostly the tlrsned tur liHtif, which nro made up In the metals Moths, sometimes feather trimmed, ftnd the charming toques in wnxed cloh. lightly draed nnd embroidered with inntlfs of Chinese designs, and, idace.i ,t the side, banning a HtU over he engii of the toque Is a bit of n ooekule of waxed cloth, finishnd off Irlrigw. Iiii.h lh What Is it in the air about this time of year that brings forth visions of summer nnd with those, other visions of gaily colored sports clothes, with the dashing little sport hat to set off the effect? This season there is much done with the brilliant shades of du vetyn for the soft jaunty sports hats, especially In the bright orange, the bright Jade green and the flame aim Chinese red colorings. These are treat ed In nil-over embroideries of Toss held by gold threads or worked In the metallic thread. And for contrast, some charmnig models of moufflon braid or angora in the softest of pastel shades are extensively shown. The soft felts are also lovely, shown In the exquisite lighter shades, pale mauve, turquoise, lemon and old rose. They are very fascinating In their trimming of bright colored straw, the straw facing the brlyi, with black being used in contrast on many of the colored felts, or de lightful novelties of cellopham made In ears of corn, elegantine, tiny roses or other flowers. Another unusual trimming for these models is raffia in tho smartest sort of embroideries. Tt Is Interesting to know that all sort. of hatpins are again being used, es pecially the long stlok effect of jot and the arrow pin of the past season, which has not lost Its pretlge. Always' connected with these are the new ''rench veils for what wonders can be done with an attractive pin stuck at Just the right angle and a wonderfully chle veil. The navy blue nnd teto do negre nr perhaps the most favored shades and the chin length embroidered and dot ted veils continue to take predecence over the somewhat newer floating lace effect. In the face vell4 tho note of the season Is chenille, not in the geo ,.. ....., t 0(1V ,mt a,80 In dots In scrolly designs and Irregular patterns. Other veils combine two col ors In embroidery such as white slllch Ing on black, and all pattern! are all ovor iu effect. An enticing French veil is quite long and shallow, describ ing a partial seml-clrclo, which Is deeper at the center going Into points at the ends. This is worn so that It fulls just below the mouth, with the ends drawn up on each side of the brim of the hat Iu a little ro-tte, and the ends left hanging. This way of wearing a veil Is interesting because the veil does not cover tho back part ' t'u h-'--i or crown and merely acts as a drapery for the face. - - -1 - 1 " Belgiue Frocks Summer Styles Frocks a la Belgique will have a commanding place along spring and summer styles. These feaftires an elab orate tracery of silk cord on taffeta for daytime wear and on luce or net for evening use. While the harem type of skirt will be restricted In its influence, It will be emphasized on many ultra smart mod els. A charmingly simple frock for the tea hour is fashioned In taupe crepe georgette and features a skirt which .a luosed under at the lower, edge in1 harem effect. On both sides of the skirt there -are wide bands of lace which appear to be extensions of a soft blouse with open front, rounn nock and short sleeves. Bet into the front of the blouse is a vest of lace to correspond with the panels at the sides of the skirt and blouse. Though necK llnes arc genorally rounded tho nat ural accompaniment of the slior sleeves there are many short cuts by which they obtain originality of treat ment. One of the most successful- in the opening at the front which pro vldosfnr the lnsertlwn of n tiny vest or chemisette. Lnce, net and the most brllllna bits of silk and satin obtain able are used for these Inserts. One also finds a few exceptions to the round neck in deep "V-shaped" ar rangements and surplice closings. Unique and thoroughly practical Is a check serge combined with suit silk. Table Linens For Easter Presents Table linens have been so scarce for several years that most housekeepers 'find their stock sadly depleted and gifts of beautiful damask promise to be as popular at Easter as they were at the Christmas season. The snops are displaying special values in Easter linens doubtless "because there have been so many calls of late for table damask of the gift sort. That means i'lno, soft, heavy damask of the sort that endures for years and years nnd looks more beautiful and more lustrous after every laudet-ing. With the new lines that have been arriving steadily since the end of the war when linen was released by the government foi private use are coming many new de signs in table cloths graceful flower effects' in patterns for round and ob long dinner tables. A lily pattern seems particularly appropriate xor Raster season. The distillery has ben replaced by the koep-stlll-cry. Sacramento Bee. Smart Effects In Linen Collars ing 'Blouses Spri If you make your spring blouses at liome, remember to have tho collar come well down at the front and keep It quite narrow at thetop whee it goes around the neck. These long, narrow collars are smart just now. Some times they give a square neck opening a litle vest effect running up between the sides of the collar. Sometimes the opening is V shaped, the collar meet ing at the point of the V. New blouses of high distinction are of very fine handkerchief linen, sheer as batiste, but of course much more beautiful and lustrous in weave be cause of the linen threads and the long coUars are of the same material, delicately edge with hand crochet lace narrow filet or a tiny hemstitched band of linen in color. When this dain ty line of color is used on the collar, It appears also on tho cuffs and in small covered buttons down the front of the blouse. Such models, of tailored type, have long sleeves with cuffs at the wirst Tunic blouses and kimono blouses with surplice , fronts that tie around the waist in a cash often have loose elbow sleeves. Such blouses are made of Long tassels In colored silk are ex tensively used as trimming mi silk hags, Often as many as four tassels ait used, each from six tu eight inches in length. Hags made of Chinese nnd Persian embroideries are iisod for both street and theater. Faille, colored velvet and shot taffeta are used for bags in plnluer styles.

In Accord With American Designs Fashion has had its spring prelim inaries and the finals show modes that are refined and restrained in their, loveliness. The great designers of Par is and New York seem to be in closer accord than ever, for the latest style news from France aems like a repeti tion of the early predictions from the American centers of dress. Some of the things that-have been Jefinitely decided are as follows: Troctlne and serge are to be the lead ing materials for street wear. Taffeta will hold undisputed sway in the realm of silk, both for house, and street wear. Long slender lines are to be featured with some fullness- and the hipllne slightly longer. Plaited skirts with plain tight-fitting basques will be favored among the ef fects that are both original and prac tical. Wool Jerseys will play an Important part in the development of sports dress es, closely followed by rough silk fab rics. There will be a strong vogue for large and small checks. Narrow belts and striped girdles will 3e equally smart. s Wraps will striko a gorgeous note; Bu tons, embroideries and braids will be in greater .demand than ever as fashionable garnitures. New Designs In Square Effects For Tabledoths There Is a new tablecloth for ft square table that gives the effect of s round table. The design It circular. Its edge coining just about to the edg ofan,ordinary square dining table, an! the pattern is clearly defined, leavtof just the tlangular sectlona at the four corners of the table in plain unpat 'terned damask.- ' Candlesticks may be let In tiiew plain corner sections, and the circular design gives a round-table tffect A other new pattern shows the tablecloth well covered by an elaborate desln which leases a circle of plain Jamault in the center like a centerpiece. " And no extra centerpiece of em broidered linen or lace la. neeesaarf with this handsome cloth. Indeed it would spoil the effect. Thli It the time of times to purchase table dam asks, for stocks, so depleted during the war, are being filled up with new and beautiful patterns. To housewives who have been mend Ing and darning their tableclothi laun dered with greatest care, these fresh beautiful new damasks, comlnj in to plntlfully now, look very attractive indeed. Manufacturers are unanlmoui In thl opinion that there will be no change In corset styles for some time to come. ' ' A movement has been inaugurated for establishing four seasons in which to buy millinery, instead of two broad ones at present. , ; v ""-"1" Easter Garments Hand Embroidered Hate, Dresses, etc., for the'Children's Easter " i , NEEDLECRAFT SHOP 429 Court Street -' V Phon95o Ladies9 Hate HIGH CLASS MILLINERY at ' LO W PRICES LADIES' HATS $3.98 to SSiJ j CHILDREN'S HA TS $1.98 to j Our Prices always the Lowest J GALE i COMPANV!
