LESSONS
By KATHRYN HUTTEltER.
The girls who have been left he-
hind soenr to have put aside their
knitting for the soldiers long enough
to crochet hats for themselves for
sports war. There are many quaint
farthe'lmfltrl.
little novelties to be found among
the hand-made mlllluery for spring
and summer, and most of them re-
' quire but little time to make. They
‘ are practical. because quiet colors
i are chosen for them and they stay on
l
the head. The gay touches are intro
duced in the trimming, which. by the
way, usually denotes the specific ser-
‘ vice for which the hat is designed.
' For instance. there is a tennis hat,
l dark brown wool trimmed with two
rackets of bright yellow wool and red
erochetted balls. The racquets cross
| at the front. or may be arranged In
any style prefernd. Attached to the
high crown is a mushroom brim
_ faced with flash color silk crepe do

erally becoming. and are, of course.
