- VENING POST, Wellington
- PhoSphorescent hair dressing,
which enables a woman's head
IL to glow in the darkness, is the
latest thing in fashions.
Women may choose between pale
blue, red, and green, so as to match
most dresses. 1t is done with a spray
and harmless powder, the invention
Of famous hairdresser.
The hair is first dressed in numerous
loose -curled locks above the temples
and at the neck, and afterWard painted
with g. slightly glutinous liquid. Then
the phoSphorescent powder is sprayed
on. The effect IS extremely striking.
The powder will not fall off, but can
be removed by brushing or washing.

King of Siam Bars
Birthday Celebration.
Bangkok Daily Mail-It is learned
that his majesty the King Is anxious to
avoid all celebrations this year on the
occasion of his birthday, and has in
structed the lord chamberlain of the
Royal Household, H. e. Chao Phya
Varabongs Bibadhana, so to inform the
executive committee of the Senate and
all government departments, as well as
the general public.
His Majesty desires to cancel the
usual decorations even in the compound
of his palace, This desire on his maj
eSty's part, 1t is stated, is due to his
keen sympathy with the distressed con-
dition of the people in this time of eco
nomic depression, and he wishes to
postpone all expenditures on this occa-
sion until more suitable time.
Uruguayans Fear
Communist Immigrants.
impartial, Montevideo.-The follow
ing paragraphs are quoted from our
contemporary, Ell Bien Publico and they
richly deserve to occupy the earnest at
tention Of the national government:
Two or three days ago, the Uru-
guayan consul at Colon, in the Province
of Entire Rios, Argentina, informed the
customs authorities there that certain
foreigners, supposed to be of Commu-
nlstic proclivities, were seeking to pass
from that country into Uruguay without
any kind of passports whatsoever. The
local officials passed this information
on to the captain general of the ports,
who found it impossible, it is said, to
take any measures immediate and eff
feetive to prevent the departure of
these intending immigrants. 1t appears
that the Argentine authorities do not
care to place any obstacles in the way
Of undesirables who have first found
haven in that country, and then wish
either to change the scene or enlarge
the scope of their activities. In this
particular case, the Would-be travel
ers to our shores were refused admit
lance, but the vigilance Of our immi-
grafton officers cannot always be de-
pended upon to thwart thus the ambi-
ton of those whose arrival among us
would surely increase the dangerous
factors in our Heterogeneous population.
In addition to the peril contained in
this threat of permanent residence,
there is also the fear. founded upon far
more than mere suspicion, that this
leniency of port officials contributes too
ample opportunity for these elements to
ply lively trade in contraband Of all
descriptions. 1t is sheer burlesque TO
employ maritime police and large stats
of customs agents if their functions are
to be impaired by absolute failure of
cooperation on the part of correspond
ing authorities in neighboring coun-
tries"
We agree with El Bien Publico that
these evasions of the law should be
stopped at once. Those disposed to
laugh at our laws should not be per-
mitted to come and go with such i'm
