No Ban on BObbed
 Hair in Wooster

Wooster, Ohio S'~ot 1s.-Teachers in Wooster and Wayne County schools nay bob their hair without fear of losing their jobs.
 ''I don't think that school authori- es who ask men no questions about
 noking have any right to say wheth- = or not girl teachers may bob their air." declared County Superintendent G. U. Baumgardner, who has been at the head of Wayne County schools five years.
 I'm not crank on smoking" Prof. lEaumgardner explained, but I think that, as an example to pupils, smok- ing is more serious than bobbed hair. We have numerous teachers in the county schools who have bobbed their I air. cannot see that it affects their taaching.'
 City Superintendent G. c. Maurer declared that he has not bumped into Lle bobbed-hair proposition. We had no bobbed-haired teach CTS last year, and I don't know that We will have any of them this year l hope not he said, adding, however that he is convinced "a good teacher with bobbed hair would be prefarab ble to a poor teacher. with locks unshorn.'

ENGLAND TESTS ALL-METkLLlC
 kER0PLkNE
Troop Carrying Machines Are Regarded Most I'm portant in Experiments; Two Under Construction; To Be Used in Tropical Parts of British Empire as Police Mediums.
By F. A. WRAY, International News Service Staff C0v.roSoondNot


 London Sept. 18.-The Air Ministry is now experimenting with ll-metal troop-carrying aeroplanes. These form portant all-metal trials now going no. They are designed for the transport of twenty-five fully equipped soldiers. with a machine gun and an adequate supply of ammunition.
 Two of these machines are now be- ing built at Weybridge. They have not yet been submitted to a, complete series of exper tnlents, and until this is done no largo erders for their man. ufacture will be placed.
 These machines are destined, pri- rnarily, for operation in tropical parts of the British Empire. where large the chief danger lies in the sudden uprising of some isolated tribe. The first of the craft will be tried in Meso- potamia, where the Royal Air Force is to be given complete command and where it will have, for the first time it's own infantry and cavalry.
 Troop-carriers, if successful, will dc away with the necessity of forced marches to some outpost, often through very hot and arid country where trouble is being caused or threatened by natives. It will thus be possible to deal with an outbreak in it's early stages, as a force sufficient to quell an ordinary rising could be hurried to the spot. even if several hundred miles away in few hours.
 The chief value of all-metal planes is that spare parts can be stored ir tropical lands for an almost indefinite period without deterioration Wooder parts are likely to warp in the heat.

 A few weeks ago Sonia, the Cigar cite Girl, was stricken desperately ill. Heart disease, a strange form, the doctors said.

 Sonia is only in her twenties: Youth rebels at grim hospital walls and white-clad doctors and nurses, With their stethescopes and mysterious But now doctors say that Sonia has won her fight-that soon she VIII 'oe discharged.
