HATS OFF.
Among very smart London women llic habit of hiking off one's hat at lunch is becoming more and more the tiling not leaving it in the cloak room, but pulling it off while one is sitting ut table. In the Ritz llic writer noticed half-a-dozen women sitting hatless, among them Ladv Veronica Hornby and her mother. They were not together; one was lunching with her newlymarried husband, Mr. Anthony Hornby, and the other with her newly-engaged fiance, Captain Somers Somerset. A year or two ago it would have been considered bad form for a woman to lunch hatless in a smart restaurant, just as it would be to-day for any man to take his bat in with him.
