SLOCUM LAKE •y IEWING the new spring hats * that are now stepping out on parade in spectacular array, one carries away the feeling that not one whit of the appeal which pretty hats, have for the American woman is being sacrificed this season, even though designers are so patriotically conforming to wartime psychology and conservation. The displays which include models designed for every occasicn and every individuality go to prove that never is there a limitation to design in the millinery industry. In these advance showings it is especially interesting to note with "What complete unity hats and hairdos meet this season. Be the hairdress a rolled chignon, pompadour reduced to a minimum, as is the present tendency, or a long bob that replaces the upswept hairdo or the new flat-top part, milliners are seeing to it that this season's hats be styled to tune to modern hair dress of every type. One of the messages that current hat displays convey is the all-importance of bonnets of varied description. Wearing pretty dainty bonnets, women will again be the all-feminine creatures that man's conception would have them be. I Some of the new types are just half bonnets; others remind you of Victorian days, and some are girlish and simple which brings us to the clocher That - favorite of decades ago is now back again with a 1944 twist. Sailors are very much in the limelight, too. You can have them with squatty crowns that fit the head or with tiny flat beret crowns, or with gan road,,has been razed.
