Real American Hairc1tts,
Promise of u. S. BARRIERS

This conclusion today led COM
mittee arranging the annual con-
vention of the Journeymen Bar
bers' international Union, to open
here Sept. II, to announce that one
of the features will be the birth OF
an entirely new vogue in haircuts
for both men and women-some-
thing truly American.
"It will be an epoch-making event
in the annals of the barbering pro-
fession in America" says the COM
nittee, refusing, through apparent
apprehension over what the society
for the prevention of everything or
other might do about it, to disclose
details of the startling new mode of
haircutting.
This borrowing of styles from
Europe to me is an admission that
we Americans are of inferior crea-
tive mind,' said Leon Worthall,
chairman of the convention COM
mittee. American BARRIERS and
hairdressers are second to none of
Europe's best. ALI that is required
is a dose of superior complex"

DAVID BUICK
DIES, CL|NGING
TO HIS dream
Founder of Famous Auto

Passes Away.
HEARTBRoKEN BY FATE
Old Friends Turn Cold as
Inventor, Fortune Gone,

BIZ United Press
DETROIT, Mich, March g.
David Buick, u, founder of the
Buick Automobile Company, died
here Tuesday night, almost penni-
less, but clinging still to his dream
of millions. He had been i'll in a
hospital for a month.
Cancer, which had wasted his
body for years, was the direct cause
of death, but broken-hearted dis
appointment at the fate which left
him poor weakened his resistance
against the disease, according to
hospital attaches.
Although he complained of his
i'll fortune until the last, he never
accused any one of cheating him OF
his Buick interests, his physician
DR.. Clark D. Brooks, said today.
Buick sold his plumbing supply
business here to obtain funds for
manufacturing his automobile, but
after three years experiments was
forced to seek outside aid. Finally
in 1906, w. G. Durant organized a
stock campaign which netted more
than $1,ooO,00O new capital.
Disaster for Buick
With this help, the new company
prospered, but it's prosperity was
disastrous to Buick.
Inner dissension in the company
finally forced him to abandon Its
management, although he retained
large block Of stock.
He moved to California, where it
seemed he would make new for
tune in oil lands. Again litigation
arose. Legal expense had to be
paid and he began to sell his Buick
stock at 500 a share. Today it is
worth more than $4,000 a share.
When his oil venture collapsed,
David Buick was broke" and with
out a share of the company he
organized.
Florida was booming and the
vision of another fortune spurred
the old man to try his luck again.
He became partner in Florida
land concern, but it failed and two
years ago he returned to Detroit.
Old Friends Cold
20 went to all my old friends
many of them are millionaires now, -
Buick said recently, "but none of
them had a job for me"
AS last resort he obtained po-
sition as instructor in a trade
school.
AS he grew more feeble, he be-
came too weak to teach and he was
assigned to an information desk,
where he sat through the day, an
emaciated, bent little man peering
through heavy glasses. Cars bear
ing his name flashed by him as he
walked to his shabby fat each
night.
Buick told DR.. Brooks that the
canacerous growth was only a re-
cent affection, but the physician
said he probably had been suffering
from it for years without complaint,
until finally forced to go to the hos
pital where he died.
