When A Hats A Hat...
I DRAPED SAILOR . . . Lilly Dache’s draped
burgundy velvet sailor for fall.
BERET, 1947 STYLE . . . Large, elegant and
manipulated, pumpkin-colored wool.
Bv DOROTHY ROE
Associated Press Fashion Editor
j;le bigger the better is the
.pprld for fall hats.
p :: mined not to be outdone
fcv -iu- dress designers, who have
Ji red up a nationwide storm of
mroversy ovet the radical
f'r.'ores in the new silhouette,
; r;ers also have prepared some
c ’leers for fall.
' As imps bulge and shoulders
droop according to the fall de
crees if the designers, hats also
, A >;,rger and more elaborate.
G :s the day of the beanie and
the doll hat. Next season, a hat
is going to be an important proj
ect, not just an afterthought.
Favorite silhouette ot the ad
vance fall collections is the
bloused or draped beret crown
combined with a cloche, cuff or
melium off-face brim. Often this
generous piece of headgear, which
by the way, fits snugly down on
the head all the way round, is
ufrther elaborated by feathers,
fur, glittering rolls of metallic
lame or poufs of velvet or satin.
The dramatic wide brim is in
high favor, sometimes extended
further by side trimmings of
feathers of bows. Turbans also
have come into their own once
more, especially for dinner wear,
done in lush materials such as
velvet or lame, to contrast with
furs.
The beret also is back in the
running — not the simple little
Basque cap of schoolgirl fame,
but new, elaborately drapped ver
sions.
The coming season provides a
field day for milliners, as practi
cally every hat is draped, sculp
tured and manipulated. Simple
blocked crowns and straight brims
are few and far between.
11911 SILHOUETTE . . . Croyden’s deep head
fitting bonnet in garnet velvet.
FABULOUS NOTE . . . Braagaard’s big felt
sailor trimmed in white mink tails.

Tired,"All-in
Listless Feeling
Brought To Halt
As Vibrant Energy is Released
To Every Muscle, Fibre, Cell
Do you get up In the mornings still
tired, feel down-and-out all day? Have
you checked-up on your blood strength
lately? Overwork, undue worry, cold, flu
or other Illness often wears down the
red-blood-cells.
Every day—every hour—millions of
tiny red-blood-cells must pour forth
from the marrow of your bones to re
place those that are worn-out. A low
blood count may affect you In several
ways: no appetite, underweight, no
energy, a run-down condition, lack of
resistance to infection and disease.
To get real relief you must keep up
your blood strength. Medical authorities,
by analysis of the blood, have by posi
tive proof shown that SSS Tonic is
amazingly effective in building up low
blood strength in non-organic nutri
tional anemia. This is due to the SSS
Tonic formula which contains special
and potent activating ingredients.
Also, SSS Tonic helps you enjoy the
food you eat by increasing the gastric
digestive juice when it is non-organi
cally too little or scanty—thus the stom
ach will have little cause to get balky
with gas, bloat and give off that sour
food taste.
Don't wait! Energize your body with
rich, red-blood. Start on SSS Tonic now.
As vigorous blood surges throughout
your whole body, greater freshness and
strength should make you eat better,
sleep better, feel better, work better,
play better, have a-healthy color glow in
your skin—firm flesh fill out hollow
places. Millions of bottles sold. Get r
bottle from your drug store. SSS Tonic
helps Build Sturdy Health.
