HAIR!
Like 1t, Men? Star to Conduct Straw
Ballot; Vote Today

A S WE read the couture hintings in the magazines this
"A spring, we learned bobbed hair was passe, and long
thinking of the mental pain they would suffer as they
waited for their hair to grow again. We visuaized them
sinking down the avenue at night, crying softly in their
hankies: Gee! l sure look a sight! How l hate my shingled
skypiece! How | wish my hair would grow!"
1t seemed to us the streets would just be avenues of woe.
But it seems to us, mere male folks, that instead of being
dead, each bobbette now is clipping even closer to her head.
The hobs used to be curly and they hid the female ear, but
the recent ones we've noticed seem peculiarly sheer.
course, it's not our business Just how close the boh-
~ bettes clip. And we shrink from pointed queries that
they may consider flip. But in our inner beings we admire
them or condemn, for, after all, it's men folks who have
to look at them.
So, men, mark up the coupon that you'll find due south
of this. Let's ballot on the bob, sirs, and tell the worrild
French or Dutch. 1t will take you but a minute-and we
owe the girls that much.
