A vivid description highlights a black velvet hat with a narrow brim and a crown framed by tufts of tightly curled plumes. The piece notes tall feathers rising from the crown, capturing the Gul fashion for spring millinery and its refined silhouette.
The piece extols tree planting with reasons value to property, shade, beauty, and climate. It notes spacing thirty five to forty feet, digging pits, soil mix, and that leaves mill raw materials, producing oxygen and moisture exchange. It cites ancient trees in California and a full grown tree’s daily water output of 187 gallons, urging action to cool hot weather.
The piece notes a gradual revival of a wartime silhouette influencing coiffures. Hair is worn loose from the brow with a protruding crown, often secured with a tortoise shell pin or simple jeweled ornament. Avoidance of ribbons and jeweled bands signals a shift away from turban-like effects, much to the hairdressers’ dismay.
The article surveys early fall hats for girls, noting care in selection for a dignified homecoming. It describes white cloth hats with pleated bands, white wool adornments, rough white cloth bands with royal blue velvet, and clusters of red wool berries. A cheery color scheme and corded silks enhance the looks.
An expert, Mr HE Blebbs, argues that humans have cherished a love of trees since early times. He cites forests as ancient storehouses of sustenance and notes tree planting as a common recreation in British Haluchistan canteons and in the Himalayas, where tree vistas enhance the landscape.
A guide describes cleaning white and colored kid gloves using milk and soap to restore gloss and softness. It includes steps to rub the glove with a damp cloth and soap, then air dry, noting incomplete care may leave dull or spoiled areas.

It also covers cleaning white kid boots and slippers and making a waxy polish mix with wax, spirits of turpentine, soap, and water to finish the look.
Simple dress described with a slightly full skirt and center back trim, cotton braid and diamond trim, three buttons above the trim. Includes kimono blouse trimmed at neck, waist, and sleeves. Materials: three and one half yards of fabric, braid, buttons.
The article discusses delays in using shrubs to enhance landscapes noting the impact on appearance and the potential for shrubs to fill vacant spaces with natural beauty. It emphasizes nature hinting at man’s role in beautifying surroundings and cautions that while not all plant choices meet desires, shrubs offer essential aesthetic value to public spaces.
The piece recalls Roman architectural greatness and notes that modern cities still struggle to combine permanence and beauty. It highlights Berlin’s plan to spend about 86 million dollars on municipal improvements including gas, water, drainage, underground railway, street work, and open spaces.
