WATERPROOF LID AND GEISHA HAT ARE VERY
LATEST IDEAS, SAYS BETTY BROWN
BY BETTY BROWN
Since we have so much rain this
summer we have been forced to de
vise some way of beating the weather
San at his own game. As a result
e Waterproof Lid has come into
being and now we simply don't care
how hard it rains.

creator of the fashion idea which is

binding of about two inches. A white
crown cord drawn loosely around the
crown completes the hat. No matter
how wet it gets this little lid looks as
chic and smart as ever.

at all where little Miss Fashion is
going for her ideas. Now she has
traveled half way round the world'

where the little Geisha girls have
shown her one of the ways by which
they make themselves picturesquely
