In No. 1 window we .were shown some’of the Ucav season’s millinery, and one is struck With the styles, which are very sensible and effective, the trimmings this season being of a clinging nature, and not only look stylish but are very serviceable. In No. 2 windoAV the firm are showing some of the newest creations in Voiles. This useful material is always popular, and anyone AA’ho could not make a selection from the large and varied selection showing must indeed be very fastidious. In n'ddition to the Avindow display the whole of the main 1 shop floor space is artistically decorated in spring goods, including iicav costumes, blouses, voiles, zephyrs and soft furnishings, and the effect, as viewed by the passer-by, is very effective.
