New York notes reveal hat fashion shifts with ribbons and trims reinvigorating spring headwear. Straw hats mingle with taffeta and ribbon bands, while turbans and brims showcase frayed and layered ribbons. A tall midnight blue velvet ribbon turban and other ornamentations highlight the season's renewed emphasis on decorative ribbons in millinery.
The piece notes tassels and round Chinese hats in arraw silk, bejeweled headpieces with tulle brims, and Cleopatra style dresses. It highlights short vamped French shoes with straps and bows, and the high prices of white, patent kid, brown suede, and grey footwear. The writing suggests women seek a vamp look through ornate, costly accessories and footwear.
The notice lists numerous property transactions in Pendleton including Ada Hinkle to John, H. Wilcox to Baldwin, and Lovell to Sturtevant, with prices ranging from $1 to $24,000. It details lot and tract descriptions across town blocks, sections, and townships, naming buyers, sellers, and parcel boundaries.
April reports from Chicago cite a critical housing crunch under real estate manager Robert Bartlett Jr. He notes ready subdivided space is sold, high material costs and scarce labor block home building.
