"10000 HATS
A YEAR"
The newspapers the other day told of a
woman who wears 10000 hats a year. We
don't know how she does it; but we do
know that you can make four or five sty-
lish sport hats to match your sport sweat-
ers at a very small cost.
Dennison Crepe Paper
is the secret. aA us tell you about it.
