and remarked with her usual lady-like
sweetness "Shingle-bob, please"

first began to accept the bobbine

palled on the barber shop patronage
because of the age-old habits of some
of the patrons. Some almost had
nervous collapse at times because of
near-breaks in speech they made in
the shop when some lady was present.
But when the bobbing craze swept the
country and the shops throughout the
land became not mems barber shops
but barber shops for gentlemen and
ladies" there was transformation in
the conditions, a change in the jokes,
and an expurgated vocabulary put into
use in the barber shops that even
tually proved a delight to the men
who had been allowing the shop to
be center for non-parlor jokes. And
none were happier than the barber
shop proprietors for it relieved them
of being eternally bored with the smut
which the so-called best joke-teller
insisted on inflicting from week to
week.
Barber shops, however, were not the
only spots in Douglas and elsewhere
that benefited by the presence of the
women as equal partners with the
men. Polling places on election day
probably received better change than
the barber shops. The polling places
of old lacked nothing the barber shop
could boast in either smut, obscenity
or profanity. In fact, polling places
could give any other, place little and
big casino and the spade point as a
handicap and win with a wide mar
gin. But, in the words of the picture

her community because of her health

guage of the men. The conversation
of the polls became the conversations
of the home circle. The same inter
ests were centered there Woman's
purity and inherent Inodesty settled
down as an enveloping force over the
election process and men accepted It,
But let no one conclude that it is
the opinion of the writer that prior
to the coming of women all barber
shops we're foul in language, or that
all polling places were unclean in
speech. Such was not the case.
Neither was it true that where such
was heard it was the habit of the
majority of men. Men usually have
finer sense about them that pre-

had its exceptions.

majority of them now. That is q
closer picture of the average mans

So far as is known, the above is not

among and between themselves that

Douglas and everywhere else where

There is a bit of everyday pSychol-

by it just as have the barber shops in
