HIGH HATS ALONG NEW LINES NEXT FOR MEN, CLAIM London, Mar. Jl. (ff) Ptcadil ly strollers whose silk hats are not slightly belled at the top and do not measure exactly & Inches In height cannot make any Impression on London's fashion dictators. Al so their hats must hays a brim exactly 1 Inches wide. Dank clerks, muslo hall mana gers, undertakers and doctors have never abandoned and high hat In London. Bookmakers also have clung to them through thick and thin. And diplomats were faithful to their uniform even during the Zeppelin raids.
