OYER THREE YEARS HATLESS
War Veteran Braves All Kinds of
Weather Without Headgear.
C. l.. ShOrey Says IL Helps His
Health and Hair and Adds
to His Comfort.

There is in Washington a man who for
three years and half has not worn a
hat The name of this citizen with an
antipathy for headgear and a disre-
gard for conventionality is @. L. shorey,
an employe Of the Department OF Com
merce and Labor.
Mr.. Shorey is a Spanish-American War
veteran, and while in Cuba fell beneath
a horse and broke his leg, resulting In
the amputation Of that member. He has
arrived at the conclusion that a man on
crutches should net burden himself with
more apparel than is absolutely neces-
sary, and he does not regard hat as
either essential TO his comfort or appear
ance.
Wearing a hat is more a habit than
anything else and probably descended 10
us from our feudaI ancestors who wore
steel helmets TO prevent being knocked
IN the head by their warning neighbors," ="
said Mr., ShoTey. Il reached the cOnClu-
sion some time ago that a hat was bur
densome and have not worn one summer
or winter for over three years. 1 find
that my health Is improved and that my
hair which was inclined TO fall out IS
now as thick as In my younger days l
am not endeavoEing to pose as an ar
bitter of fashion nor am I the leader OF
new cult, but so far as am personally
concerned. no hat for mine"
