Movie Actresses
and Their Hair

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has love-
ly hair, while the most popular count
their curls as their chief beauty? In
fact (this is a secret), many are lead
ing ladies just because of their attract
i've locks. Inquiry among them dis
closes the fact that they bring out all
the natural beauty of their hair by
careful shampooing. not with any soap
or makeshift, but with a simple mix
ture which they make up for them
selves by putting teaspoonful of can
throx (which they get from the drug
gtst), in a cup of hot water and apply
ing this instead of soap. After its use
their hair dries rapidly, with uniform
color. Dandruff. excess oil and dirt
are dissolved and entirely disappear
The hair is so fluffy that it looks
much heavier than It is. Its luster
and softness is delightful, while the
stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Adver-
tisement

HE NEEDS ASSISTANCE
Bishop MiIIspaugh Calls for Election
of a Bishop Coadjutor.

Bishop Frank R. Millspaugh has
sent letters to all the Episcopal clergy
to select candidates for bishop CO.
adjutor when the special convention
of the Kansas Episcopalian churches
meets in Topeka September 81. The
bishop declares that his failing health
and increasing duties make it neces-
sary for him to have an assistant.
Bishop Millspaugh made a similar
call two years ago, but a deadlock
occurred between clergymen and lay
men. His health improved and he did
not press the matter.
He says that he has no candidate in
mind for the office but is satisfied to
abide by the selection made by the
Kansas clergy.

BLAME YOUR DAD!
Badness Is Inherited, Says Re-
search Expert of Ohio.
Nothing to All This slight
Hat" Philosophy.

Washington, July 25.-Baldness in
man is inherited, and in the same way
as horns in sheep, according to Miss
Dorothy Osborn of Ohio State Uni
versity.
Tight hats appear to have nothing
to do with it, and disease of the scalp
play a small part, if any. That hered-
ity is the cause is strikingly shown by
her discovery that a baldness-pattern
is sometimes present on an infants
head at birth, and is then grown over.
to reappear in after years when the
hair falls out.
Miss Osborn's researches, based on
the study of pedigree charts, are pub
lished today in the August issue of the
Journal of Heredity. organ of the
American Genetic association of this
city. She points out that complete
ly bald head is rare. but that various
patterns of badness are frequent in
man. Among the most common are
head, that involving only the crown.
that giving tie appearance of an ex-
tremely high FOREHEAD, and that cover
ing the top and back of the head. The
hair associated with badness may be
thin. normal or heavy, these patterns
are inherited.
The family histories which she has
gathered show that when the inherited
tendency is not present in the family,
the men do not become bald, even If
they have typhoid and other diseases
and wear tight hats all their lives. If,
his sons will be bald. If the father is
himself not bald, he can not transmit
badness to his offspring.
In Women, Too.
But badness is not confined to men
it appears in women, although rare
ly. This rarity has been urged as evil
dence that badness is connected with
wearing hats but Miss Osborn says
such an idea has no basis in fact.
Badness in women is more frequent
than is generally known, she declares
because women can conceal their
badness much more easily than men,
| She finds that a woman is bald only
| when she inherits 1t from both par
ents, while inheritance from one par
ent is enough to make a man bald.
| A woman who inherits badness
from only one parent will not herself
be bald, but may transmit badness to
one-half her sons. If a mother is bald
all her sons will be bald. no matter
whether the father is or not Hey
| daughters will not be bald unless the
father also was bald. but may trans.
init badness to their offspring even il
they do not show it themselves.
Technically. this peculiar mode OF
Inheritance is called sex-Emited
| the character being dominant In
males and recessive in females. It was
found by DR.. Thomas r. Arkell to hole
| good for the horns of sheep, but is mo-
| a common type of inheritance, so fal
as is known.
After reviewing the various theorie:
heretofore advanced to account FOL
badness, Miss Osborn concludes
'These theories do not agree, and non.
in itself is satisfactory. Heredity as
cause of badness explains away these
difficulties. 1t explains the presence O.
a patterns. why healthy individuals are
afflicted, and why it is so common in
men and exceptional in women"

GRID TEAMS USE MASS PLAY
New Style Of Attack Has Been Legal
lied by Rules Committee-TackIing
From Behind Prohibited.

The mass play devised by George
Foster Sanford, the Rutgers college
coach, may be adopted by elevens of
other colleges as result of the an
nouncement that the new style of at
tack has been legalized by the football
rules committee. The play consists of
the alignment of three of the four
backs Immediately behind three ad-
joining players on the forward line.
1t was used effectively by the Rutgers
eleven and proved formidable when a
little ground was needed to retain the
ball or when the team was near the
enemy's goal, but in one instance last
season 1t was declared Illegal.
Mr.. Sanford submitted the question
of Its legality to the rules committee
and obtained a decision that the play
was legitimate provided no part of the
bodies of the three players forming the
secondary attacking line was within
one yard of the line of scrimmage.
A suggestion by Mr.. Sanford that a
rule should be adopted prohibiting the
cutting down of player from behind
was approved by the committee in
formally. He described 1t as 1.-The most
dastardly play in football, ham,
stringing, knee-breaking, face-smash-
ing play that allows u man on one
side to injure d member of an opposing
eleven"
