00:00Let's spend the day with the average working girl.
00:16Maisie is due at the office at 8.30.
00:19She has the alarm set for 8.25.
00:22That gives her exactly five minutes to take a shower,
00:26get dressed,
00:28fix her hair,
00:30have her breakfast,
00:32take a bus,
00:33and arrive at the office.
00:35Let's get back to Maisie and see what happens.
00:39There's the bell, and there goes Maisie.
00:42It's a fast break, and Maisie leads a feel around the far turn.
00:45She reaches the bathroom and overtakes the shower by two lengths.
00:48It's Maisie by one.
00:50As she passes the clubhouse turn,
00:51in a steady drive, saves ground and brushes her teeth.
00:54Heading down the back stretch, staying close to the rail,
00:57Maisie slips into a slip,
00:58and now she heads down the back stretch of her neck
01:01and ties her hair into a careful knot.
01:03She shows great form and grace as she steadily keeps her pace.
01:07A dab of this and a dab of that,
01:09a dash of this and a dash of that,
01:11and Maisie looks like,
01:12well,
01:12there she goes in a steady drive.
01:15And now she's back, still keeping her pace with indigestion.
01:18She drives on with donuts and coffee.
01:21The bus takes the lead.
01:22It's pulling away, and Maisie falls back by six lengths
01:25as she passes the three-quarter pole.
01:27As the bus comes thundering down the back stretch,
01:29Maisie goes to the whip.
01:31It's Maisie by two.
01:32It's Maisie by one.
01:33By a neck, a nose,
01:35and she makes it.
01:39And now Maisie takes the lead again.
01:42Heading down the home stretch,
01:43she steadily increases her stride as she enters the elevator.
01:47Six,
01:47twelve,
01:48seventeen lengths in the lead,
01:49and now she's losing ground.
01:51Keep going, Maisie.
01:52Don't give up.
01:52It's going to be a driving finish.
01:55It's one minute to 8.30,
01:56and here comes Maisie.
01:58Well, that was a close finish,
02:04and now Maisie is getting ready for a hard day's work.
02:10As Maisie toils away,
02:13the hours pass very slowly.
02:15It's now 12 o'clock,
02:18and Maisie stops at the corner drugstore
02:21to have her lunch.
02:24After lunch,
02:25we see Maisie back at the office,
02:27continuing her daily struggle
02:28until 5.30.
02:33It's 5.30, Maisie.
02:37And now the scene changes
02:39to a millinery shop
02:40on Fifth Avenue.
02:44Here we find Maisie
02:45trying on some new hats.
02:48How about this one?
02:49No, no, no, that won't be.
02:52Mm-mm, too big.
02:54Chapeau a la mode.
02:57Something from Paris,
02:58very becoming.
03:00The peekaboo model.
03:02You don't care for it?
03:04The droopy ear model.

03:10How about a night in Venice?
03:13Moonlight's another.

03:16The Venetian garden.
03:19The Venetian garden.
03:20Right turn model.
03:23Perhaps a left turn.

03:28This one?
03:29What, this?
03:29Here's one.
03:30The snug chin biologer.
03:33Perhaps this.
03:33Very becoming.
03:34No?
03:35Care for this?
03:37How about the jackpot?
03:38How about that one?
03:43Oh, that one is made to order.

03:58comfortably working
04:00in their padded cells.

04:38I have a little job for you, Chester.
04:46Upset-daisy.
04:48Oh, I'm going to make a hat.

05:27It's adorable.
05:27And so, Maisie buys the hat.
05:32Here we see Maisie promenading on the boulevard,
05:36proudly wearing her new bonnet.
05:48Hats, hats, hats, hats, hats, hats, hats, hats, hats to the right of us, hats to the left of us.
06:06Let's pause a moment.
06:07Let's pause a moment and pay tribute to those unsung heroes, those forgotten men, our hat designers.
06:15These geniuses of the headgear were once happy, carefree, normal men, even as you and I.
06:24They've sacrificed their lives for the things and stuff the fair sex put on top of their heads.
06:29They've given everything, their homes, their families, their futures, their lives.
06:35For what?
06:36For this, a woman's hat.
06:38For this, a woman's hat.
