Peterson, the dainty and talented
young soprano. Miss Peterson is an
athlete herself, and says that she at
tributes much Of her success to the
fact that she has always felt phys
ically fit to sing when called upon.
There was a time, and not so
long ago says the prima donna,
that a singer took very little exer-
else. She was always afraid Of
catching cold basing her reasons
that If she wlked in the chilly air
or played game of tennis, she
would become overheated and it
would affect her precious vocal
chords. Hence the fat soprano
now almost a relic of the past. Then
again European women seldom went
in for real hardy physical exercise
anyway
"But now that is all past. Today
singer INDUCES in all sorts of ex-
ercise, and it has resulted that the
artist Is far better off than ever be

resistance than thick rolls of fat

Bobbed Her Hair in
Street; Arrested

The notion that her appearance
would be greatly enhanced if her
hair were bobbed took such a firm
hold of Catherine Mcfarland, TWEEN
ty-five years old, of 389 Eighth
avenue, New York, that she left her
home and entered the nearest bar
Der shop, where she demanded that
the operation be performed.
your hair is too pretty, miss, and
I couldn't think of cutting it," re-
monstrated the proprietor.
After she had met with polite re-
fusal at three other barber shops in
the neighborhood Miss Mcfarland
borrowed a pair of scissors and, while
standing at Broadway and Thirty
seventh street, began shipping off her
tresses herself. A crowd of 200 per-
sons gathered and watched tn,
process with interest until Patrolman
Fentner, of the West Thirty-seventh
street station, interrupted it by ar
resting the young woman.
Magistrate Corrigan seemed shock
ed at her appearance when she was
court on a charge of intoxication,
"I'll suspend sentence" he said,
eff you'll go home and stay there
until you grow a new crop of hair"
So that is what Miss Mcfarland
is going tn do
