.. hope you will be tolerant
with my curiosity concerning whisk-
ers. We are criiioising bobbed hair 4
good deal these days but 1t seems to
be TACT that men broke away from
long hair and n,ercd the bobbed state
and they have also been rather hckle
with regard 10 whiskers. VIII you be
good enough to tell me what manner
the different Presidents OF the United
States bearded and shaved. and what
is the general history OF whiskers:
Treating this question in all seri-
business it is found that Washington
John Adams. Thomas Jefferson, James
Madison, and James Monroe, were
smooth shaver; John Quincy Adams
had slight burnsidcs; Andrew Jack
son was smooth Shaven; Martin Van
Buren, had burnsides; William Henry
Harrison, John Tyler, James Buch-
anan were smooth shaver. while Abra-
ham Lincoln did not wear a beard un-
til his later years. Andrew Johnson
WIS smooth shaven; L. 5. Grant wore
short beard, while Rutherford b.
Hayes and James A. Garfield dis
ported long whiskers. Chester A.
Arthur had burnsides and musiache.
Grover Cleveland wore = mustache.
and Benjamin Harrison had long
beard. William Mckinley was smooth
shaven, and Roosevelt and Taft wore
mustaches. Wilson, Harding. and
Coolidge are known to have been
smooth shaven. Wiskcrs had their
best days in the United States be-
tween 1910 and the late SOS. Boards

Romans. In England boards were
not fashionable until the 18th Cen
fury and were discontinued ut the
time OF the Restoration, although the
present King and his father Edward
have stuck to the alfalfa.

still in the slang language. Jazz music
is orchestral and is played for lively
dances
Q. What is the percentage of
urban and rural population in the I'm
tied States, and has il changed in re-
cent years.
The census reports show that 90
percent OF tn population OF the IN
tied States was on the farms and in
towns OF less than $500 population
in 1900 OF this population 5l7 per
cent was located on the farms. The
census shows that only 40l per cent
OF the population lived on the farms
in 1920. while IS lived in Incorporate
ed places OF less than $500. giving
a total OF rural territory amounting
to 4S6 per cent at the time sof the
last census. These figures show very
the drift in population
from the farms to the cities.

cent do they constitute OF all denom-
nations?
