Says Long Hair l Will Not Be Mere Relic
By LILLE MAE H. BOX

LIVE Tn remote Sectl0n or the
 country, twelve miles from the rail
 road In station, I am as far removed from New York's -Four Hundred" as the east is from the west, and occupy such an inferior place in the scheme oi things social that it would take pair of good eyes. coupled with patience aud a high-powered microscope to find me. I have neither the ability of q writer nor the charms of social lead CT, yet for Ia that and a that" have the audacity to s,outly refute certain statements made by one of New York social favorites and writers, in an arti- cle appearing recently under the cap tion, "Long Hair Soon To Be Relic Of Past"
 "Fifty or a hundred years from now pictures of women with long hair are going to be exhibited as amusing curi- osities," says the article. Isn't that a heart-rending statement?, Isn't 1t mortifying to think that our posterity, instead of loving and reverencing our memory, are going to hold us up as laughing stocks of their time?
 Quite different picture presents it. self to me I see the photographs of bobbed-haired mothers and grand mothers wrapped in crepe paper, em- bafmed in forget-me-nots and tucked away in the darkest corner of the at tic to keep silent tryst with the dust throughout the years-so great Is the fear of the descendants that the old likenesses will be seen. And l can imagine that if those old, musty, moth. eaten, dust-covered photographs could speak they would say, Don't expose me and let the world of today know how vain and foolish I was to think l could pro1ong youth and "cuteness' by shearing my locks.
 It is only the original and genuine that can withstand the test of time. We tire of chromos, of the old mas ters-never. From the beginning long hair was-and shall ever be. After tbe bob epidemic has subsided and the fad has died the natural death that all finds do, then, women are going to me themselves in large numbers to the nearest hairdresser's establishment, seek first aid in the form or pufts' curls, rats, braids, etc, and emerge some with high coiffeurs, some with low ones, but all coiffeured.
 Don't think am a catty antl-Dopper' Not at all. I admire it on adaptani,e types. Young girls look we'll with short hair and some older women ma it the exact medium through which they can best express their indlvlduah- ty or personality. Neither am l a man nor an older woman who cannot afford to adopt the style, as the author nnt if am young and small enough to grace the style fairly well.

Employer Yields Reward To
 Loyalty
By SOPHIE IRENE LOEB

a MoST refreshing indeed is the act lvE of an employer who in his will left
 his stenographer the entire busi- ness. His statement in making this bequest was to the effect that this woman had worked so faithfully that she helped build up the business to it's great success and therefore was entitled to it. e2 .f
 And interesting indeed is the fact that the family of this man thoroughly understood and heartily agreed and were satisfied with the share of the property that was left to them.
 What a feeling Of satisfaction this woman must have in the knowledge that reward did come as a result of her earnest and constant endeavor! It is good example indeed that is set by this employer. How few men realize that but for the aid of their helpers they could not have attained the degree of success that is theirs.
 More and more, the world is learning to appreciate that no man who takes all and gives little in return is re. garded as worth while. Neither is there room today for the Stingy Scrooge of yesterday.
 Every day we hear of the employer who has either turned over his business to the men who have helped make it or have arranged some plan of sharing the profits.
 But it is rare Indeed for this equality to be extended to women. Therefore the case mentioned is most refreshing, to say the least.
 If the truth were known, the women who have made the business enterprises of today could not be numbered. I know of large public utility corpora tlon where woman who started as an office girl is the chief of staff of off cers and workmen alike, and, what is better still, this woman manager is trying to reach out. to others of her sex and urge them to go into similar lines.
 As she said to me-.
 Men have failed. to realize the value of women in high places where the pub lie is to be pleased. Just why it is is beyond me. Some day they will wake up."
 She is now working on a campaign to get other women to do as she has start right at the bottom of the busi- ness and work their way to the top.
 In lesser ways it behooves every man to see to it that those who have helped make him prosperous get simi- lar chances to make their way in the world. Many men have given years to commercial houses-years of faithful service-and many times have had to wait until they were old, and somebody. died to get their just deserts.
 Better to see your employe thrive while you live, Mir. Employer. T
 On the other hand, If you work for man work for him." Ifsyou make

Perhaps they are right, but it doesn't seem to fit in with the inner me, the real me that l am hence shall cheat the future out of one good laugh by fefusing the photo- grapners a chance at my conspicuous locks.
 There are hundreds of girls who, while they prefer keeping their hair bobbed style but are not going to adont it unless driven to it to prevent heinz like. anu '"'
 The author of this particular article. enjoying, as she does, great social pre- emlnence, must surely know the in- 1luence her opinions exert. The aver age country girl, unsophisticated, often tunes beauty and a butterfly aspir- ant, hangs on her word, pertaining to styie, more closely than she would the words Of Jesus Christ were He here on earth' And so 1t is very necessary tnns m she avoid extraVagent statements.
 Sueht put IOrtn TOT the bob strictly for comforts sake is indeed flimsy. Very few women would dare adopt it if they did not hold forth hopes of being a bit more attractive afterwards. Some girls, of course. blindly follow the fashion even at the expense of making clowns of them selves, but the conservative, sensible girl would not think of sacrificing her tresses for small degree of comfort or style either-if she, thought she would be less attractive.
 Observing the rapidity with which styles are ever. changing, I cannot be- lleve that the bob, with all it's beauty and comfort, is going to weather the
