Washington.-What does the color
abundance and texture of your hair
reveal regarding your character and
ability?
The question Is raised sharply by
the news of a banquet which was held
this year by an unusual organization
IN the University of Nebraska. 1t is
Known as the Order of Golden Fleece
and Its membership is composed only
Or young womer whose hair belongs
20 one Of the many shades vulgar. =
described as red. According to au-
ihoritative reports the members are
classified on the club rolls under the
Following color headings: Squash. car
rot, pumpkin. orange, brick, scarlet,
hamlngo, maroon, copper auburn,
henna, mahogany, magenta, sorrel,
strawberry, roam, russell, cerise, car
nation, salmon, shrimp pink and pink.
Lemon, ginger, insipid brown and
chemicals of all kinds are barred.
Prizes are awarded at the annual
events for the brightest flame of color,
the greatest quantity Of hair and that
of the most beautiful shade.
One More Kind Of Glass Feeling.
This organization is interesting and
perhaps alarming to the general public
as an example Of one more kind Of
class feeling. 1t is we'll known that
class feeling and the tendency to or
g9njZp a ho
crease. We now have associations not
only Of capital and labor, but also
mothers leagues, parents leagues, con-
sumers' leagues, writer's leagues.
There are leagues based on every pos
sible role which one may play In life
whether in business, politics, society,
marriage or sport; but heretofore, SO
far as we can learn by exhaustive re-
search, there has been no effort to or
ganize on basis Of physical charac-
teristics, If few jolly Fat Mems clubs
be excepted.
The tendency to organize ON q basis
OF hair color, therefore, is thing of
great and alarming possibilities, espe-
cfally II red-headed women take the
lead In the matter. Imagine Il Won
can an insurrection Of the Interna-
tional Order Of Red-Headed Women.
And this organization Of red-headed
women into clubs will undoubtedly in.
tensify what you might call the hair
ciass-feelfng. The Order Of the
Golden Fleece will no doubt make
pretty thorough study Of all the data
bearing on red-headedness, and each
person will come away from its gath
erings with clearer notion of the spe-
cial destiny which her flaming ton has
prescribed for her.
That Old Saying, Y'know.
There seems long to have been a
sort Of general agreement that red
headed persons have peculiar charac-
teristics. It is generally believed for
example, that they have hot tempers
ana strong emotions generally. In the
last century a smile in common use
was easy as making love to a red
headed girl" Since the rise of
the Nietzsche- Shaw Mencken school of
which holds that woman Is
a dangerous predatory animal, bent on
hunting man down and making a
slave OF him, this generally has been
revised to read dangerous as making
love to red-headed girl"
Whatever basis this saying may have
IN the experience Of man. ii is annie
evidence OF a general popular feeling
that red-headedness is quality of the
mind and temperament as well as of
me hair. For some reason, there is
10 similar popular idea regarding
other hair colors. but scientific re-
search shows that hair Is a great re-
'eaIsr Of character In an lndJrec. way.
