The day was hot. Shimmering heat
waves danced before the eyes Of the re-
porter as he crossed the aSphalt-paved
street which yielded soggily beneath his
feet
Gosh, this weather is fierce" he
murmured, sinking into the sweltering
depths Of an overstuffed chair in the
office of the Washington Chamber o.
Commerce. I'll bet this city is the
hottest place on the face of the earth
This last remark was addressed to ne
one in particular, but 1t CHANGED to fall
upon the ears of Dorsey w. Hyde, jr,
secretary of the chamber and Loyal
Washington booster.

don't know what you're talking about
I've just been over to the Weather Bu-
reau for some figures, and I am about
to prove that Washington weather is

Mr.. Hyde paused at this juncture to
observe the reporter. The latter stirred
uncomfortably and Strove for the ap-
pearance Of one. who, though skeptical,

Mr.. Hyde drew from his pocket
large handkerchief and mopped a brow
which had begun to glisten with tiny
drops of perspiration. He decided to
tackle the matter from another angle.
But, you may say, these annual
mean temperatures don't show the
whole picture because they overlook the
high temperature days. Well, then, let

Summer Hair STYLES
BY Josephine HuddIeston
IS Are in Order for the Hot Days Ahead.

IN all the long and short OF it,
concerning hair. the n thing
that has been definitely decided
Is that the boyish bob Is out-en-

But with the coming OF really hot
weather a great many rome are
apt TO weaken. and II is for this rea-
son that / want TO prepare you.
Women who have been letting their
hair grow are having II cut shorter
with each new. warmer day. and
many OF them have lost all sense OF
proportion in doing so. Just because
you don't want long hair for the
Summer is not a good reason for
having it cut OF without thinking
about the particular way you want
II cut. IL i possible. you know. to
have hair so cut that as the weather
grows cooler again this Fall your
hair will grow out into the correct
manner for adoption 10 the Winter

Thinning the hair has a great deal
TO do with the way IL fits the con-
tour OF the head and much to do
with the GOODNESS that means COM
fort during the hot weather.
AS a matter OF actual fact. long.
~thinned-out hair Is much cooler than
a shorter cut which hasn't been
thinned out.
The only really short couture that
has been approved by those who set
fashions is the curled-all-over-the-
head style. or the ringlet- And this
way Of doing the hair IS perfectly
stunning on young and old alike.
The young miss Of sixteen usually
looks adorable with soft ringlets al
over her head. The late twentles and
early thirties appear years younger
with this mode. and for the roma
whose hair Is either turning gray or
is already white the mass Of closely
cropped ringlets offer a softening ef-
