CURLING HAIR.
By NAhIE I3hOVUE'
Copyright. 1920. Mcclure syndicste.)


Curling hair is said to indicate a
more vigorous, passionate nature
than does straight hair. Perhaps
this notion has gained credence be-
cause as a rule races of more south
ern climes have curling hair. where
as more northerly races are
straight-haired. and Southerners
are OF a more fiery temperament.
Compare. for instance, the North
American Indian with his straight
black hair with the native African
with the curliest possible sort Of
black hair. However. it would he
false to infer therefrom that every
curly-haired individual had an AZ
rican temperament. carefree, vola-
tile and passionate, or that all
straight-haired individuals were
ph1egmatic, melancholy. and faith
full as Indians are supposed to be-
Curling or wavy hair is by no
means the ideal of all great por-
trayers of women. But we do find
in almost all Greek sculpture hair
that appears to be naturally wavy
The romantic ideal of the per-
fectly beautiful woman in the Mid
die Ages in Europe had golden hair
that was as wavy as possible"
Doubtless there were hairdressers
then as expert as those of the pres
ent day in giving the hair the most
fashionable sort OF wave But nat
urally curly hair was then consid-
cred an asset as much as in the
present day. and we find often stip-
ulated In descriptions of ideal beau
ties that the hair should be natu-
rally curly.
At somewhat later date Diane
de Poit1ers, the most beautItuI
woman of her time. had hair that
was dark and naturally curly. An
other fascinating French woman
who had dark curling hair was
Madame Recamier.
In England as in France, the ideal
frequently was for hair that was
as curly as possible" and in the
decadent Stuart society an sorts Of
elaborate CURED headdresses were
in fashion. Pepys in his diary says
of the Princess Henrietta, daughter
of Charles 1. that she was very
pretty. but much below my expecta-
tions; and her dressing of herself
with her hair frizzed short up TO
her ears. did make her seem much
less to me. But my wife, standing
near her. with two or three black
patches on, and well dressed. did
seem to be much handsomer to me"
quite a crop OF curly haired
yopng women have been brought
before the public as screen stars.
II seems to be an essential require
ment II you are going to take the
part OF the sweet young girl in the
play that your hair should not only
be wavy, but capable of falling in
delicious ringlets. However. just
because you haven't ringIets should
not stand In the way of your, screen
aspirations. For Il is said that even
Mary Pickfo-d has To resort to
artihcial aid n producing her own

What 5 in a Namea
By Mildred Marshall.
THERESA.

lftENESA.
One of the prettiest of feminine
names which for some reason has
always been associated with France
and yet is essentially English. 10
Theresa It is one of the many
feminine names which come from
the harvest and It's original source
is a Greek word meaning to reap
or gather in a crop.
The first to bear the name was a
Spanish lady. the wife of Roman
noble called Paulinus. Both Pauli-
nus and his wife were devotees of
st. Jerome. The name Theresa had
great vogue in Spain and is finally
found on a throne Of Leon in the
Tenth century. -
The most noted Teresa appears IN
the sixteenth century when the Ro-
man Catholic Church. produced the
remarkable saint of that name:
through the Spanish connection OF
the house of Austria. the princesses
of Spain and Germany were fire.
Quently christened Teresa.
In France IL became Terress
through the Queen of Louis XIV.
and Proence called it Terezon. The
Queen added greatly to Its
fame, her noble spirit winning all
hearts by the famous cry: "Moraam-
or pro Rege nostra Maria Theresa"
St. Theresa, OF course, brought 1t
to England through the Roman
Catholic religion, though it's vogue
there did not begin until after the
Reformation.
England also calls her Terry and
Trasy: France makes her Therese.
She is Theresa in Portugal. and Te-
resa and Teresfta in Spain. Italy
uses Teresa and Tersina: in Ger

1t is a sway fortuitous for all who

While conditions are most auspi-

papers and periodicals are likely TO
be well-inclined toward personal
exploitation when the stars are
posted as they are today.
All lines OF advertising are sup
posed to be wonderfully well di-
rected today, making for large re-
turns.
Contracts and agreements signed
today should bring the best Of luck
and should be in every way fortu-
nate.
Bankers should benefit from this
sway, but they may have some new
anxiety over a foreign loan.
Jupiter gives promise of honors
and promotion to educators. ColIeee
professors should profit by agita-

none will gain the highest rewards
