His Holiness the Pope Starts an Interesting Discussion

mans desire for woman. then instead
of blessing the bobbed head he will doom
it to extinction by calling woman's atten-
ton to the fact, if it is fact.
"What have said might seem to mean
that the hair bob increased woman's
lure, and, therefore, that | am disputing
the opinion of the Father of the Church
of Rome. Really, ] am not, because he
was thinking in terms of millions of heads
and referred to the effect of the average
bob, which is the best the average woman
can obtain.
"A woman's barber should have the soul
of sculptor, or his ruthless shears will
betray the fact that feminine heads are
no better shaped than masculine ones, but
have the form of watermelons and arti-
chokes. Some BARRIERS are caricatursts,
who send their innocent victims gu, look
ing like poodles and lions and wet cats
| have even seen human hens and sharks
"These comic hair cuts, | am sure,
make for morality, but there are few,
very few, BARRIERS whose work is what
every woman hopes her BARRIERS will be
really irresistible If all were as skilful
as these few masters | would not agree at
all with the Pope, but then in that case,
l am sure, ne WOulu never nave id'oreu
the style"
The question was raised as to whether
any woman had ever really dressed with
the serious intention of avoiding the
annoyance" of admiring masculine
glances. The answer was yes" Joan of
Arc wore mems clothing and, more i'm
portant, she bobbed her hair because she
had a mans job, leading an army of rough
men, and she had no time to be married
or made love to. She did her work and
died. still the maid of Orleans"
Pauline Howe, of the Casino de Paris,
got out her diary and gave impressive sta
tistics showing that the normal number of
proposals from sober and eligible bachel
ors, up to December, 1924, averaged less
than one per month. In December of that
year she bobbed her hair, and the pro-
posal curve at once jumped up to twenty
per month and has hung around fifteen
ever since.
Some of the French drcssmakers have
for long time been prophesying vainly
the return of almost Victorian modesty
in dress and the long hair that went with
those virtuous draperies. They maintain
that it is not the woman who attracts
mems interest as much as what his mag
nation thinks her to be. Woman to-day
wears so little that she gives mans mag
ination no chance to work. When the
ladies realize this they may again go
around like walking spiritualists' cabinets,
within whose voluminous draperes imagi
nation can materialize most anything.

and most everyone else who makes money
from fussing with women'S heads. Il was
clear to even the pagans that with the
endorsement of the oldest and most con-
sentative power in the world, the unchang-
ing Church of Rome, they could laugh at
any remaining opposition. As for the OPP
ponents they were crushed.
Few people would dispute that short
hair is more sanitary than long. That
the bobbed head tended in the direction
of morality was not quite so obvious. In
fact there were many who had thought it
led in just the opposite direction. These
were surprised bIt they knew that the
Church of Rome does not speak hastily on
any matter, and that the Pope's remarks
must have been based on substantial evil
dcnce.
Some of this evidence was pointed out
in the French papers. During the centuries
numerous converts of various orders have
experimental with cutting women's hair,
and their carefully kept records show that
the results were excellent. Getting rid of
their alleged browning glory relieved the
women of much of the annoyance and
temptation from such men as came in
contact with them. This may have been
one of the reasons which caused the Pope

Pretty ManneQuins That NeerEat

T TOW would you like to have a girl

thing, is willing to work twenty
four hours day, never complains of
working conditions, works for nothing and
Is so pretty she adds to the attractiveness
of her surroundings?
Such a happy combination is impossible.
you will probably say.
But it is not, for the fashionable dress
creators of Paris have a small army of
just such employees. They are wax models,
so lifelike in features and posture that
they seem to need only the touch of d
fairy wand to start them breathing, talk
ing and walking about the studios where
styles are originated.
The war, which left France short of
man-power and which made it necessary
for women to fill in essential occupations,
resulted in a shortage of live mannequins
girls who paraded expensive clothing
before wealthy customers. Then came a
strike and the enraged modistes vowed
to substitute faithful wax for tickle
flesh.
With the growing demand, the artists
who fashion the mannequins have so inn
proved their work that at a distance of
only few feet ii is almost impossible to
distinguish the manufactured from the
live article. And now the craftsmen are
improving wax type which walks and
moves its arms.
Two new advantages of the lifeless
model have just been discovered. The
wax figures can be chosen so that the
tints of their skin, hair, eyes and lips
harmonic most agreeably with the color
of the dress which is to be exploited.
And if the garment to be sold is of
Spanish design, it is a simple matter to
haul a Spanish type mannequin from the
storeroom. The same is true of the Amer
lean. European and Italian types, variety
which is almost impossible to keep upon

old-fashioned, even if attractive, live man
ncquins.

four kinds of nectarines, twelve varieties

growing upward along walls and fences
and occupying only few inches of ground
space for the luscious bounty they yield.
As has been mentioned, the money maxi
ing feature of the intensive one-acre farm
is that little egg-laying machine-the hen.
"The hen of to-day" says Mr.. Weeks,
may well be termed lively egg machine.
Evolution is a wonderful law and force.
and through scientific selection this law
has been brought to bear upon the de-
velopment of the hen for the increased
production of eggs. Every living thing is
filled with creative energy. The hen is a
vertable living dynamo, and man has
learned how to harness this energy and
turn it into the production of eggs. By
successive years of trap-nesting and selec-
ton of heaviest producing hens this en-
ergy has not only been turned into egg
production, but it has been augmented.
Perhaps the one thing that has helped
10 increase egg production more than any
other is that Of eliminating the useless
and disease-producing outside yards. Egg
farmers are beginning to realize more and
more that hens lept under a roof in
dry, clean, open-front pen will lay more
eggs than those allowed to roam.
"Dairymen have also learned that their
cows will give more milk if confined rather
than left to range. And so Il is a psyche
logical principle with the laying hen of to-
day-her mind is on her business. She
does not run all over the farm hunting
for her food, using up energy, but helps
herself to just the choicest food for max
ing eggs, and all the energy is thus di-
rected into egg production"

$1,000 A Year And Your Living On A One-Acre Farm

above the earth, the short barrier thus
provided acts as an effective windbreak,
protecting the tender shoots when first
they peep through the earth. And their
white sides reflect the sunlight, stmulat-
ing the growth of every vegetable.
Time as well as space is saved on the
one-acre farm. In order to have the vege-
tables reach their full growth orderly and
continuously, only a small portion of
ground is planted to each vegetable at a
time-just enough to provide vegetables
that can be consumed without waste. In
growing radishes, for instance, while five
short rows are ready for use, five rows
are coming along half-grown, and the
seed for five new rows are put in.
The time table of the intensive one
acre farm also has regard for the length
of time each vegetable requires to reach
maturity. There are no wasted minutes.
Some vegetables mature quickly and mast
be eaten at once, while in their prime, to
get the full value of their flavor. Such,
for instance, are radishes, new onions,
beets and turnips
Others require more time to reach
state of maturity and may be eaten with
full value over longer period of time.
Root vegetables, such as carrots, parsnips,
etc, may be mentioned IN this class.
In California, where Mr.. Weeks's farm
is located, it is possible, by taking advant-
age of the warm sunshine and using a
proper amount of intelligent industry, to
have a luxuriantly growing garden all the
year around. During the Winter tender
green lettuce, bloodred beets, purple
topped turnips, scarlet radishes, long yell
low carrots, creamy parsnips and green
peas, fine cabbage, caulflower, spinach
and crisp white celery take their turn in
the ground TO give way during the Sum-
mer months to corn, beans, red tomatoes,
purple eggplant, varied-hued peppers and
other such seasonable products.
Then there are the fruits. Mr.. Weeks

to say in effect that short hair reused less
unruly desires in men than did long hair.
When this thought had been digested
for "a hours some of the girls who had
been happicst at the idea that they had
received sort of apostolic blessing on
their bobbcd heads now became uneasy.
The papers were piled with letters asking:
SIS it possible that by bobbing our
heads we are making ourselves less tempt
ing to men? If so, why should we want
to do it,"
This problem brought forth an interview
with Henri Letclier, Mayor of Deauvile
and inventor of many modern styles. He
said:
81 agree entirely with the Pope that
short hair is more sanitary. 1t not only
is cleaner, but it looks cleaner.
''As to the effect of bobbed hair on
morals, that is a deeper question and not
so easily answered To begin with, the
length of the hair on the outside of wo-
mans head cannot have any direct effect
on the motives and desires in the inside
of that head as regards morals. The i'm
mediate effect, if any, is on the morals
of the men she meets, and they, in return.

THE city worker looks out on the
dreary wilderness of brick and ma
sonry and paved streets. and wishes
he could make a living somehow in the
green fields and under shady trees in the
country. Mr.. Charles Weeks. of Califor-
MIA, declares he has solved the problem Of
living in the country on a small inves'
ment, and has found way Of earning an
income Of $4,000 a year and his living
expenses-on one acre Of ground.
An acre Of ground is slightly more than
two hundred feet square; about the size
of an average New York City block. This
is not very large plot Of ground TO live
on and dig out $4,000 of real money in
addition each year.
On the One-acrr farm everything ex-
emplifies the truth Of the well-known
Scotch proverb: MANY mickle makes a
muckle." The farm is so small. slightly
over 10000 square feet-not as great an
area, in fact, as the average city block
that not an inch OF ground nor beam
of valuable sunlight is wasted.
Mr.. Weeks's intensively grown acre j.
los feet wide and 40 feet long. com
prising an area Of exactly 43,050 square
feet. From this small farm he not only
feeds a family Of four persons. but also
produces an income Of more than 500
week from its money-making feature,
a brood of $500 laying hens.
They are housed in a poultry shed 800
feet by "a feet wide. divided into fifty
twelve-fOot square pens. twenty-five on
each side, containing fifty hens each.
From these busy little egg machines 200
and more eggs are expected each year,
which, sold at a profit of a cent or so an
egg, gives each hen an earning capacity
Of more than 81 a year.

HHOST everyone knows that His Holt
VI ness Pope Plus has steadily resisted
the modern bold and revealing trend
of woman's dress. As head of the Roman
Catholic Church, he has often severely
censured those of his faith who follow the
extremes of these fashions.
1t was generally assumed that this dis
approval also applied to bobbed hair. the
symbol Of flapperism and female indie
peDdence in general. Many Protestant
ministers, Jewish rabbis and even Moham-
medans have Numbered against the fem-
nine clipped head Parents, husbands.
school principals and other temporal au-
thoritics. or what used to he considered
authorities, have aided in trying to sup
press the style but it seems to thrive on
such opposition.
Now comes word that His Holiness, far
from frowning on the bobbed head. APP
proves it both from sanitary and moral
point of view. In Europe and especially
Paris, which is now striving to maintain
its leadership in feminine fashions this
caused much interest and discussion.
The first reaction was one of triumph
on the part of the short-haired ones as
we'll as the BARRIERS, hatmakers, jewelers.
