Our First Shipment of
Spring Millinery
Has Just Been Unpacked
\
Enticing indeed are the Spring millinery fashions! The
hats themselves, though small, are alone of unusual beauty
but the effect produced by the addition of modest trim-
mings is superb. \
The return to small hats will surely be welcomed. This
season, very small sailor, poke, toque and tricorne shapes
are about the only ones considered correct. Straw and
fabric braids, small flat floral trimmings, satin ribbons, and
fancy button, straw and compact feather novelties will be
used for decorations.
The principal features are all in evidence on these new
models. See them by all means.

cargo of sandwiches. Above was a
photograph of Washington, over
which hovered the "Dove of Peace"
carrying an olive branch. The ta-
ble was strewn with stars, and tiny

interest was a U. S. flag, an exact
copy of the first United States flag
constructed by Miss Sarah M. Wilson

ter of Betsy Ross, and presented by
the maker to Prof. Notley's Boy
Scouts.

hour, and refreshment* of tea, cof-
fee and sandwiches were served.

the faithful few who have labored
unceasingly to promote the growth
and usefulness of the organization
feel very much encouraged and grat-
ified at the large crowd who turned
out on this occasion, and at the in-
terest evidenced in the plans being
made for the future work of the as-

wonderful amount of work accom-
plished and a much closer co-opera-
atlon between the homes and schools
