BALD HEADS At PEACE TABLE
Many Diplomats Had Whiskers and
Mustaches, but Lacked Hair
on Their CranIums.

An amusing sidelight on the recent
pence conference at Versailles Is
thrown by correspondent, who not
only reported the proceedings proper.
but took notes regarding the hair,
mustaches, boards and whiskers OF the
peacemnkers.
Two-thirds of the delegates were
more or less bald. Perhaps some Of
them made up for this by wearing
mustaches. Out OF 65 men who sat
round the peace table. all had mus
taches but ID.
Whiskers, on the other hand. were
not popular. Only three people wore
them. and by curious coincidence
the names of all these three people
begun with V. They were Venizelos
of Greece. vandervelde of Belgium
and vassitch Of Serbia. The latter's
whiskers were particularly prominent.
In regard to dress, there was less
formal attire than one might have
imagined. The English paid no special
attention to dress. High hats and frock,
coats. once a combination that would
never have been sanctioned, were
quite popular; but there were some
countries which put all they knew into
their attire. These were. notably, thu
japanese. and some of the Souti
| American states.
