Miss Duncan believes that in COM

You see," she declares. eff a girl is
pretty, a good barber and wants to rev.
olutionize the style of male hair dress,
objections of mere man are superflu

rather have pretty girl massage their
face than to have the hands of a male
barber, no matter how well versed,

THAT girls can direct the style in
male haircuts is foregone conclusion,
OF course. they can. Don't men dress
to please the female eye? Don't they
wear their hair this way or that just
to please the girls? Do YOU suppose
that man will object to any style

pened to be in league with US girl bar
bers?
