DENTAL NURSES TRAINING SCHOOL (Founded 1935) Son Francisco 17, California Hats for Spring To Be Very Big Designers Say By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Correspondent New York (U.R) The horse less carriage lasted despite doubters of 50 ynn --j and now the hats that went with the era are back. Under the brims and blooms that you'll see fluttering in next spring's breezes will be women who wouldn't have left the house in any hat bigger than a pillbox last season. This week inaugurates offici ally the spring fashion previews in New York City. More than 100 fashion writers from all parts cf the United States are here for six days of steady look ing at dresses, coats, suits and hats that make top fashion news from 1956. Starting from the top, the news they'll see will be big. A man may or may not like the new hat his wife buys for next Easter, but you can bet he'll notice it. John Frederics calls his king sized hats his "horseless carriage collection." Designer Adolf of Emrae, who has one spring hat that measures 28 inches across, says they're "1900-ish." Sally Victor sums it up with breezy directness. "They're big, aren't they?" Mrs. Victor asked. "The cycle has gone as far as it can the other way. They couldn't get smaller." "We've found how to make big hats that don't overwhelm the woman," Mrs. ' Victor said. "When hats were really big before they often were gro tesque . . . only women who had a real flair could wear them. These are different."

As We LlVQ By Daughter Needs To Be Psychologically Weaned W"hen a person sets up another as an ideal, he is heading for trouble. (Q) "We have one child, a daughter 19. Ever since she was a little oirl. she has literallv w o r s hipped her father and is the apple of his eye. They are very con genial in inter ests and like to - do many things logeth ei. In fact, I often feel like the fifth wheel Dr. Hurlock io a wagon when I am with ihem. Of course. I am pleased to have my daughter and her father get along so well, espe cially when I hear some of my friends talk about the friction between their . daughters and husbands. "However, there is a problem that is getting more serious as my daughter gets older. No boy she has ever dated seems to measure up favorably io her father and, as a result, she soon gets tired of him. I want her to marry and have a home and family. I do not think she is meant to be a business girl, though she has . enjoyed her work since she left high school and has a very good job. Can you give me some suggestions on how to cope with this prob lem?" Mrs. M.P. (A) It must be your husband rather , than you who will have to cope with this problem, though you can help indirectlv by giving him suggestions. Your daughter must be "psychologi cally weaned" from her father so she can see other men as individuals, not inferior reflec tions of her father.
