achieve is beauty, and the roads te
beauty are legion!
However-to return to the
shoulder or the halfway bob" as
smart beauticians call 1.-THE
simplest way to stimulate it is by
advising your barber to leave the
sides of your hair severely alone.
And here let me warn you! Don't
make the mistake of neglecting
your regular hair cut. Your head
must be neat and trim every mo-
ment of the growing out period
although / admit that that is a
thing far more easily said than
done.
The hair can be carefully, neatly
clipped, and the neck kept free
from the little bristly hairs which
are anything but attractive But
ask your barber not to touch the
upper layer of back hair which has
probably been shingled to inch
length uneven whisps. Keep away
from points on the neck and real
ize that a hair cut now is merely
for the purpose of keeping your
hair line tidy while you cultivate
new growth.
Study your type and study the
new clothes. Clothes, you know,
are very important in debating our
hair modes.

Discovery of the body a,clinaxed

but plunged into the water with a

HOLCOMBE OUT
FOR GOVERNOR
Former Houston Mayor An
nounces Oath Administer
ed To Successor

HOUSTON, April 16.-(P)-Oscar
F. Holcombe, four times mayor Of
Houston, today dramatically an
his candidacy for governor
in the 1890 democratic primary.
The former mayor made brief
speech just after
administering the oath of office to
his successor, Walter E. Montieth.
"I now assume the role of pri-
vate citizen and I want to say to
you, Judge Monteith, that 1 hope
the next time am addressed as
a public official it will be as COVER
nor, for I now announce my candi-
dacy for the high office of governor
of the great state of Texas" Hol-
combe said, and walked out.
HouStons first entry in the guber-
Material derby was at the helm of
city affairs for eight years. He was
defeated for denomination in De-
cember by Monteith.
In more complete announcement
to representatives of the press, Hol-
comb said he would base his cam
paign on his recc-c as HouSton'S
mayor and the constructive views
I shall present to the people"
Il believe the people Of Texas
want the same constructive policies
applied to the state government
which my administration has ap-
piled to the growth and development
of Houston" he said.
Mr.. Holcombe asserted he would
await the proper time to outline his
platform. He stressed the need OF
cooperation between the governor
and the legislature and asserted he
believed he could obtain that CO.
operation.
Mayor Holcombe was born In
Alabama and came to Texas when
he was three years old, the family
settling in San Antonio. When he
was eight years old his father died,
leaving him and younger brother,
with the widowed mother, not In
the best of financial circumstances.
BY selling paper and other work,
he managed to finish the seventh
grade in school. While he was en-
ployed in a planning mill he studied
engineering and later went into the
contracting business. He was con-
tractor, comparatively unknown un-
til the campaign at the time ne was
first elected mayor.
