By Catherine Indra Home Extension Agent With the coming of spring girls, young and old, turn their thoughts to the selection of a new bonnet probably an Easter Bon net. Your hat can express your per sonality. A hat may be gay and frivolous, it may be young and ingenious, it may be dignified and sophisticated, it may be dain. ty and sweet. Shapes of faces may be classi fied as oval, round, square, tri angular. The oval shape is con sidered the ideal. A round full face must avoid round hats. A straight stiff sailor hat is an example. Avoid off-the face turbans or hats that fit too closely, because faces need a background. Do wear hats with brims turned up on one side or brims that tilt. Hats that give a suggestion of height. A long thin face should avoid flat hats, stiff sailors, narrow brims, tall crowns, pill boxes, and close fitting turbans. A long thin face should wear hats with wider brim, irregular lines of softened edges. Hats with trimming massed near the crown or on the sides. With a small face do not select hats that are too large and over powering. You can wear tiny sail ors, pill-boxes, or hats with shal low crowns. An oval face with regular fea tures may wear almost any at tractive shape, closely fitted hats, halo, and heart-shaped. You ran wear hats placed straight on the head. With a prominent nose or sharp features avoid turned up hrims. close fitting hats and tricornes. Select irregular brims, to give the softening influence of shadow, or a brim that tends to throw back the features. Wear soft trimmings on the forehead or front of the hat. If you have a heavy chin avoid hats with drooping brims and those that are lower in the hack, as well as turbans and stiff straight hats. Do wear berets and stailors with a tilt. Highlight the forehead with heavier effects in turbans. Center the interest high on the head, preferable near the front. With a receding chin hands off of drooping brims or a hat that repeats the slanting line of the profile. Look for dashing lively hats with no drooping brims and brims that are wider at the sides. Let the forehead show. For you who wear glasses don’t he tempted by turbans, pill boxes, sharply turned down brims. Lines that turn down close to the face focus attention on glasses. Avoid too much decoration on the hat Find hats with brims that extend beyond the glasses. Select soft, slightly drooping lines. Look for trimming at the front of the hat.
