FAD STRIKES OKLAHOMA.
'ompsdour Doomed and Hair to Be
Wor, in English Fashion.

The schcoleiri-pig.t a J Id w MT h e.
baci-fad has struck Oklahoma It
oundered in new York last spring
nd has been following the course Of
he empir until it has reached Okla
iona, ami Guthrie the garden spot Of
: he territory. The style is simple and
1girlish ami will be particularly fetch
ng on tn stout girl weighing, say,
rs pounds. with whom it is sure to be
Cnost popular
Along with the new style OF back
hair dressing a rumor that the pompa-
lour is doomed and that the front OF
he hair is 20 be worr in the English
ashton popular for children for sew
eral seascrs Rats" are TO be re-
moved and pompadours plastered
down, the front lair parted away ov-
Eer the left side, drawn smoothly back
8from the forehead and tied with big
taffeta bow at the top and side Of the
Mhead. The hair then is to be braid
from the crown and allowed TO hang
down the lack with another bow at
the neck ard the ends curled. A pin
in clover leaf. wreath, bow kno. or
some othes conventional design fast
ems the braid just at the top Of the
curied ends
The fasl ion will be pretty and pic
turesque on a girl OF sixteen who
couldn't be otherwise than charming
IL she tried and It will go well with
those big F'horodora sextette hats which
flare up in front and flop down be-
4 hind and have lunches of roses nod
ding on the edge Of the brim. With
the severe lines Of the walking hat,
affected b. some women OF the un-
compromislngly superior type 1t would
not be so appropriate A sour cast of
visage. too usually goes with this
style OF hat. and that would make the
combination even more impossible.
The plastered hair, guiltless of cur
+. ling tong or kid roller, was the natur-
al reaction from the state Of excessive
n wooliness just preceding it. The short
y haired woman hes been abroad in the
land--not the short haired woman de
4 manding The ballot--and equal right
\ but an airy. fairy. frivolous type
\ with her hair in soubrettish ringlets
all over her head Half the woman
. bobbed OF their hair and the others
. hid their long braids under masses Of
close CROP ed bangs. encircling theil
\ heads and curled al over as tightly a.
a Dahome5 maiden's. Every woman
. you met had a head that looked large
. Her hair stood up and out and al
around her hat so that 1t seemed tc
nestle down among the curls.
From the plain part and the exposed
/ forehead vas but a step to the pom
/ padour wh ch has been lin, with var
iations, for at least five years. We
have had the high rolling pompadour
4 the straight pompadour; the frowsl.
pompaGour the parted pompadour
the pomraGour that extends out ovel
the forehead like a shelf; the pompa
dour that is all on the sides; th'
pompalou- that exposed the ears II
boldest outlines and the pompadoul
that hid them as dark disgrace. Witt
bunch or top Of the head and oyel
the forehead or mere wad, the in
significan, remnant not required b!
the exaggerated demands of the style
OF dressins the front hair
The syche knot was not exactl,
suited to 4 atlrned-up nose but it wa
fashionable o. Fashion, what crime
are committed in thy name.
But lovely woman is Of fckle tast'
as traditioa has we'll established ant
nobody Wi be surprised to hear tina
since she las been piling all her hal
on top Of fer head and building it a
high as possible by the use OF "rats
she will now go to the other extrem'
and like ol Jane. who doesn't lool
the wea it hanging down he
back"
