COLORFUL STRAW HATS FORM A LINK
IN THE CHAIN OF ENSEMBLE MODES

Homemakers Named
In the current millinery program
a flattering type of bat baa entered
loathe sort which la making a defl
nite atyle appeal to the better dr^ed
data of women. We refer to the ex
otic atrawa which are to exquisitely
fine, ao handsomely colorful, so emi
nently genteel.
These straw hata, usually of choice
bakoo, or balllbuntL alsol or bengkok.
are alwaya selected with the costume
In mind. The fact that they are dyed
in such marvelous matching colors
adds greatly to their prestige. Then,
too, the ensemble idea Is further car
ried out eery often by trimming the
hat with the material of which the
dress Is made, or perhaps that of
which the accompanying handbag,
scarf or even the shoes are fasbUmed.
Thus the colorful straw bat thla sea
son forms a link In the chain of rhlc
as expressed In the unified costume.
The medium sized straw shape Is
farorlte—but bow versatile Its con
tourl Particularly flattering and "the
latest" Is t|ie longer back brim. It la
really quite remarkable how truly be
coming this type of hat Is proving
The abbreviated at-the-front and elon-
gated-at-the-back brim has face-fram
ing qualities such as every woman
covets and a pp red a tea.
Manyjof the French modes
carry the Idea to an extreme
—but with fasdnating re
sults. The long-back model
shown at the top to the right
In thlq group Is, however, a
very conservative type—Just
such as the woman of dls-
crlmfoatlng taste and refine
ment would choose. It la dyed a
bright navy. * The inset of matching
felt encircling the crown emphasizes
superior style and workmanship.
Just below to the left la one ©I
those charming balf-ln-half hats, part
black satin and part natural colored
balllbontL And that reminds that the
vogue for natural colored straws Is
widespread. Perhaps tbs outstanding
reason for the popularity of tbs nat
ural tones la because they tune In so
perfectly with the suntan and sun
burn shades, which are the rags for
clothes as well as complexions.
Centered to the right In the pie
tore Is a stunning straw headpiece
dyed a most effective dark gtfefr to
match the dress with which It Is
worn.
The last hat of broadened brim Is
as attractive In one shade as another
The model photographed was navy,
but It might Just as well have been a
dark tangerine, or a leofy brown, for
the very smartest straws are often
In brown to complement tbs vogutht
brown costumes.
One of the Interesting outcomes of
the vogue for long-back bats Is the
trend to back trimmings.

Rock Hill, June 15.—After many
years of service in farm homes with
out thought of public reward, five
rural women of South Carolina were
paid the tribute of a State here Satur
day when they were named Master
Farm Homemakers.
The honor was conferred by the
Farmer's Wife, national farm women’s
magazine of St. Paul, with the co-op-
eratiom of the j3outh Carolina State
Council of Farm Women and the
Home Demonstration Department of
Winthrop College. It was the second
recognition of its kind in South Caro
lina and one of 21 similar events in
as many States this year.
. The five women are: Mrs. S. J.
Kinsler, Columbia; Mrs. J. D. Cole-
mdri, Latta; Mrs. J. R. Thompson,
Bucksville; Mrs. J. D. Darby, Switzer;
and Mrs. R. L. Fripp, Burton.
The Master Farm Homemakers are
leaders in home demonstratiori clubs,
county councils of farm women, the
church ai;d school improvement asso
ciations. All of them are Sunday
School teachers.
The womer ( have two to six chil
dren and live on farms of 86 to 700
acres. Their homes may not have
every converience but they get a fair
share of the fgrm income. Judges
who selected the women found them
good managers of time and money,
capable, "health engireers,” real part
ners of their husbands and skillful ir
the proper training of children.
•ffect If strands of door whtta or
faintly pink pearl baada art put
around brown throats? This to a
simple matter for those whose only
cere to to pot harmony Into style ef
fects. Pratty pearls are supposed to
grow In the dark ocean depth*—yet
miracles will happen where costume
adjuncts are concerned. No one's
brownie complexion need be put to
shame, for she can choose the de
lightful "sun-tan" pearls to wear
around her fashionably tanned neck!

rather, that all accessories should har

Dame Fashion lately went on a
chartreuse hunt Let no Volsteadian
be alarmed. It is true that Webster
defines this term as a pale green or
yellow liquor of complex composition,
prepared by the Carthusian monks of
Tarragona, Spain, and said to con
tain balm leaves, orange, peel, hyssop,
peppermint and numerous other in
gredients. But the point of this story
is that the newest fashion decrees are
all dotted over with this word “Char-
treuse” as a color. ~
“Describe ‘Chartreuse,* please,"
begged Dame Fashion of a fabric au
thority. He agreed at once that the
color is much to the fore, and de
clared that If was “greenish-yellow,*’
or “yellowish-green." One fashion
edict has said that cdmbinations of
bright blue and chartreuse, brown and
chartreuse, and chartreuse with black
are the season's most “chic" effects.
Meditatively the authority re
marked : “Do you know what a love
bird looks like? Well, that color to
what I call ‘chartreuse'.**
Seeing a young man hurrying in
through the door of a theater wear
ing a felt hat of as bright a scarlet
- as any proud cockerel's comb gave
Dame Fashion another bit of color
meditation. Ten years ago this young
man would have gained much more
attention than at present, when be
seemed to be considered Just a cheer
ful matter-of-course object It would
not be hard to bring It down to genu
ine statistics, how many thousands
leas of black hats are offered this
year to both men and women la
