GLOSSY PATE; HAIR FALLS OUT
Barber Says Imitation of Head OF
China Doll Causes Badness.

Why does the young mans hair fall
out? According to local barber. the
epidemic of falling hair among the men
students is the result of the styic in which
they wear their hair. 1t is common
knowledge that 4 cap or Rat worn con.
sisntly will cause a decrease in hair. This
is because the head covering does not per.
nit air to reach the scalp. which is es-
sen,ial to healthy scalp.
The style which causes this decrease in
hair and which, according to this SINE
barber, is affected mostly by freshmen.
consists in the hair parted in the middle.
combed back on either side and plas,crcd
down to the head BY use Of oil. This ei-
fort to effect a resemblance to the painted
head Of the China doll may be beautiful
as a highly polished piece Of furniture
is beautiful, but the ultimate result is
disastrous. Considering the results. the
analogy between the students head and
the piece Of furniture may be less anal
ogous and more Synonymous.
The use of oil TO paste down the hair
50 closely wedges the hairs together that.
The barber said. il was impossible for air
to reach the scalp. SO. whenever you
see such coifIure you may know that
the wearsr viii be premalurely bald.

About fifteen hundred children have

Of health habits. Third. to see that each
child has a hot lunch daily Fourth to
train teachers in normal schools TO teach
