HATS AND MILLINERY.
THE DIFFERENCE EXPLAINED. ARBITRATION COURT INTERLUDE!. " Dressmakers are tradeswomen, but milliners are artists," declared fihe head of a city business dealing in women's wares, in evidence before the Arbitration Court yesterday. " Milliners are artists," raused Mr. Justice Frazer. " I expect that is why their works are known as creations." The witness agreed. " But there is no millinery to-day," he added. " Women wear hats." His Honor: Bat I thought they were one and the samp. This time the witness disagreed. ""There is no creation in the hats the women wear to-day," he declared. " Thsy wear very fine clothes, but as for their hats—there is no-creation, nothing of the artist." •Mr. A. L. Monteith (workers' representative on the Court): Married men should be pleased. Looking at the headgear of the only woman in Court, the witness described it as being' " a hat, not a creation." He asked His Honor for an opinion.
"I don't think I will be so rude as to pass a comment," Mr. Justice Frazer retorted.
