"B0BBED HAIR" CRAZE ENDS
Many English Women Now Seek TO
Restore Locks Sacrificed
to Fad.

London.-The fashion of cutting
women's hair short is waning and
scores of short-haired women are
searching west end hairdressing shops
for locks with which to replace those
of which they were shorn few
months ago when the "bobbng" craze
was at its height.
Possessors of rich auburn or pure
white locks of suitable length can OBJ
tain SO or $40 by submitting to the
"bobbing" operation. Many London
women who paid 3 or shillings few
months ago to have their hair "bobbed'
and left the tresses with the hairdres-
SER are now spending anxious hours
in an often futile matching up en-
deavor.

bert Shies who for many years was
connected with the public schools of
New York city in the department of
educational research and the evening
schools, and who has more recently
been superintendent Of the public
schools Of Los Angeles. But instead
of attacking American women as slack
ers, remarks the New York Evening
Sun. Doctor Shiels believes we should
turn toward efforts to make good
Americans of the large number of for

that the birth rate advantage Is all
on the side of the foreign born" says
Doctor Shiels, who is at present In
New York assisting with the prepara-
ton for the national immigration con-
ference in this city. "This fact should
not startle us. Not any of us can trace
our ancestry back far enough to be
boastful about 1t at the expense of the
man who came ever yesterday. If the
so-calIed American stock represents
some ideal or tradition that is worth
preserving-and no one can question
the fact that 1t does-then we should
avail ourselves Of every opportunity
to implant these ideals in the hearts
and minds Of the foreign born -

DESERTER LIVES

Ohio Youth Fears Firing Squad
Because Of Visit to
Family.
GIVES UP AFTER TWO YEARS
Hides In Hills, Feeds on Herbs and
Wild Berries and Such Scanty
Food as His Wife Got
to Him.

Chillicothe O.-Stories of how a
nelghbor deserter from the Union army
during the Civil war had been brought
to bay In nearby village by United
States marshal and shot, brought
visions of similar fate to Carl Amer
inc and impelled him TO hide in the
hills almost two years rather than
face a firing squad at Camp Sher-
man.
Amerine, drafted into the army, left
a wife and two-year old babe at home,
in the quiet, picturesque hlas. He
could neither read nor write and the
largest village visited in his "a years
had numbered less than a thou
sand inhabitants. The bustllng thou
sands at the camp, military restraint
and customs weighed heavily on him
and an impelling desire to see his
wife and baby boy led him to quit
camp TO see them without obtaining
permission.

Fears Firing Squad.

AT nome, HIS iHtHtTt IL lULteFluE vel
eran Of the Civil war, told him he was
a deserter. Visions of the firing squad
flashed through his mind. kissing his
wife and baby good-by he took to the
rugged hills.
There Amerine found a cave In
which he slept most of the time, ven
turing forth only at night and at times
during the day when there was little
chance Of being seen. His only fare
was such scanty food as his wife could
get to him, herbs and wild berries
gathered from the woods and fields,
and such wild game as he could catch.
The cave In which he lived is said
TO be large enough for only one per-
son, and could have been defended
against many. So closely did he watch
all approaches to his hiding place that
until few days ago he had been
seen by no one except his wife and
hrother-ln-law.
Persuaded TO Give Up.
Military authorities had abandoned
the search for Amerlne. Three weeks
ago an attorney friend Of the family
became interested and imnlored the
wife to have her husband return and
give himself up. She steadfastly held
that her husband would be shot II
captured and refused to have him re-
turn.

to get word to the youth last week

and there was no danger Of firing

Amerine again went TO Stones home.
His wife brought his uniform. which
she had preserved for him and had
neatly pressed for the occasion, With

except to express himself as being
well pleased that at is all over"

ter finishing his education the young
man came west and worked with the
big lumber concern at Ccntralia,
Washington. until he was made as
sistant superintendent. Taking sick
he returned to his home in Minncap-
oils where he remained until going
into the army in 1917. He served
during the war as first lieutenant

general offices will be located at Pc
