Hair Dome is the newest scan

cial indignation.
In the meantime the bald
headed men are being inter-
viewed on all sides, the long

Q catful silence and the robbed.

everything and admitting moth
ing.
Shorn hair for the curly sex
is the result Of thousands Of
years Of evolution, during which
the women have learned that If
they don't have long locks then
their husbands can't yank them
around like q slingshot.
II q soft answer turneth
away wrath then the Biblical
reply for q woman is to shake
her saucy curls. in the rage Of
her Infatuated mate, thereby
canceling his hate and convert
ing it into loving chagrin.
Then, instead Of grabbing her
by the tresses and whirling her
around his head three times for
luck, he nabs her by the ears,
where he can't get so finn q

So it resolves itself to
matter of the women shingling
their skulls as q matter Of sOH-
protection. For some it pre-
serves their looks and for. others
it preserves their lives.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE New

all that the law allows, 30 that he
had to go outright to the Column
