A NEW MODE.

'■> Miss 1926, having cut off her hair, is j beginning to look for something to take the place of her shorn tresses, and the newest idea consists of little ear-l'ifts of soft feathers, says a writer in r.n exchange. . These feather-tufts are appearing on some of the latest hats, the feathers appearing from beneath the brim and pressing close against the cheeks of the wearer, so that, at a first glance, it looks as if the latter were actually "wearing hair." A considerable number of girls who look most attractive with a severe Eton crop when they are not wearing a hat, look .far : less - attractive when their crop is ■ hidden by a hat which reveals no hair at all. i - A woman in Bond Street, recently was wearing a little tight-fitting black felthat, with little round tufts of yellow cockleathers coming over her ears and cheeks. At a distance it looked as if she liad flaxen hair dressed low on the face. v More daring cropped women are wearing bright-coloured feathers instead of hair—scarlet, magenta and green. White feathers beneath a green hat appeared on one model, giving the effect'of powdered hair beneath' the- charming little hat.
