Haircut Is
Important
To Coifure
Tresses Fall Into Bet
ter Lines When
Shaped.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

THE other day I overheard q wosn-
an say: II must run into the
beauty parlor." Said her companion.
what for?" And the answer was:
"Oh. just haircut"
Just q haircut? Yet In New York
and many of the larger cities through
the country a great many women pay
almost as much for a haircut as for =
permanent wave. Hair cutting has
become q very important art, and 1t
is indeed a skilled. specialized work.
I have seen hairdressers, men with
years and years of experience to back
them. spend weeks on end learning
new tricks Of hair thinning, cutting,
shaping, shaving.
Just haircut? Or haircut that
molds the hair to the head, that thins
the hair so that it fits" the head,
revealing the lovely contours.
Just q haircut? Or the very foun-
dation of q successful wave and Q
becoming coiffure.
Modern hairdressers can work magic
with scissors and razor They thin
the hair, shape and cut it before q
permanent. Then the wave is put in
to follow the same lines" And the
haircutting is responsible for more
than half the success of the wave.
For II the hair is properly shaped and
cut Into" the wave so that it &C.
tually falls into place by itself, the
wave becomes easier to keep.
Ringlets that really behave are
invariably those that have been
prepared" for the permanent by
proper cutting. Pomp effects require
skillful cutting.
And because no two heads are ex-
actly alike, it takes the hand and
eye OF master to create a really indi-
vidual haircut, one that hatters the
features, that makes the right founda-
ton for the coiffure. that prepares the
hair for a wave.
We won't go into the psychological
effect of a change in haircut or
change in style here. What we want
to emphasize is the importance Of
the haircut and the fact that it really
is a worthwhile investment to have
really superior sort Of q haircut.
Certainly that type of haircut is need
ed If the hair is being cut for the first
time or if there is complete change
in style, or If personality" haircut
Is desired. The term has been abused
to a great extent, and most haircuts
are called personality haircuts. But
We mean it in the true, highest sense
an individual haircut,

found by Ulysses In the cave OF the
Cyclops Polyphemus were great guam
titles of cheese. Excellent cheese and
butter were made by the ancient Ethi-
opians, but. historians tell us that
the early Britons were ignorant OF
this art, and had to be taught by the
Romans!
In Switzerland there used to be in
some places-and perhaps still is--a
quaint and interesting custom. Each
pantry contains as many cheeses as
there are children in the household
for every birth a cheese Is made, and
named for the newcomer. This Is
put away until his or her wedding
day. At the nuptial feast, the guests
solemnly eat piece of the cheese
belonging to the bride, and OF that
belonging to the groom-this Is sup
posed to insure the couples happiness
and success in life. The remainder Of
the cheeses are put away again. not
to be touched until they are eaten
at the funeral of the one for whom
they are named!
A MERICA tops them all. however, In
- the creation of mammoth cheeses.
There is the enormous cheese made in
Cheshire, Mass, for Thomas Jeffer-
son, which was feet in diameter and
Is inches high, which was brought to
Washington drawn by six horses, and
presented to jefferson in a ceremony
which has gone down in the annals Of
the country.
A cheese Of even greater propor-
tions was sent to President jackson
by q dairy farmer, who must have
had a fair for intensive advertising
that would have made him power In
the world today. He wished to put
over" to the President the superiority
of the dairy products from his part
of the country, and made and sent to
Washington cheese weighing 1,400
pounds, that was 4 feet in diameter
and over 2 feet thick. The President
announced that his mansion would
be thrown open to the people, who
would be entertained with the cheese.
An eyewitness states that that cheese
vanished in two hours-completely de-
molished by the hungry mob which
surrounded it!
A huge cheese was shipped to Eng
land from the United States in 1929,
which had been made from the milk
of TOO COWS. This weighed 1.474
pounds. its circumference wa l3 feet.
and it was 18 inches thick. 1t had
been exhibited at great fair in New
York. and was bought by an enthu-
siastic British dealSr.
But in 1911 at the National Dairy
Show in Chicago there was exhibited
a cheese that weighed 12,361 p0Hds,
stood 5 feet high and was feetX di-
ameter! 1t was made in Appleton, Wis,
from the milk of 5000 cows and un-
der specially constructed curing and
refrigerating conditions. A specially
equipped fiat car was required to take
it to Chicago.
And now what will you feel like the
next time you ask for a quarter of a
pound of cheese? Sissy!!I

DEAR MRS. POST: I am just II
and have lost my mother. What
will others expect Of me In the matter
Of mourning, both as to behavior and
dress? I feel my loss deeply and I
don't want others to think don't, and
yet don't want TO carry my grief 50
plainly that others viii be depressed,
nor do want to make things worse
for myself. May I go to local ath-
letic club to which my family belongs
to use the gymnasium and to swim and
play games?
Answer-How you behave indicates
much more the depth Of your mourn
ing than what you wear or where you
60. This dogs not mean to let your
self cry. or sit wrapped In your own
sadness, but merely that you should
behave with quiet inconspicicusness.
No one expects you not to go to the
houses Of your friends, either when
they are alone. or when they are hav.
ing . very few others who are also
your friends. Naturally you would not
60 to dances or to big parties. You
can, however, 60 to the meVies with
q member Of your family or o friend
alone. And Of course you need not
give up sports that can be considered
exercise and are therefore necessary
TO your health.

I'VE are seeking" Mrs. Foote said,
ito develop the new American drama
and to keep alive the classics, which
we will produce in both old and new
ways" Our theater," she said, mot

interested in working in the theater,
but encourages originality and creative
instinct" She further explained a

part because of his special talent along
a specific line. I'VE ferret out COM

story and feature writer's. assist them
In preparing their work for dramatiza-
ton and give their brain children a
try-out in our theater."
The past few weeks Mrs. Foote has
been busy rehearsing and making cos
tunes and scenery for the first formal
production, which will be given Tues
day evening, November 10, in her
Sylvan Studio" The program will
consist Of one-act plays, musical
comedies. and other presentations,
each one original and unique in its
line. The 20 players have been re-
cruited from various groups in Wash
ington and Arlington County, and in
clude the best local talent.
THE scenery and costumes used in all
productions are made under Mrs.
Foote's supervision. This stately,
silver-haired woman Is decidedly the
very essence Of her studio, snugly
tucked in grove Of stately cedars,
tulip trees and Virginia pines. Archi-
tecturally, the studio belongs to no
period, but is development of artistic
and modernistic ideas as created by
Mrs. Foote. and q elimination of her
varied professional experiences.
She chose this site for her garden
home and studio entirely with the
idea Of making it community the
ater. Il knew there would be won-
derful possibilities to the place" she
said. "and work a-plenty. but I've
loved it,
There are three stages TO the studio
and grounds, indoor, garden and front

One Of the prettiest spots Is the
uncovered front portico. not originally
intended as a stage, where informal
twilight programs have been given
In the Summer time, enhanced by q
rising moon, glittering stars and long,
deepening shadows, the studio, with
its tall cedars as a backdrop, serves
as an ideal natural setting for the
performances. The audience sits on
grassy mound slightly elevated above
the portico.
Another place on the grounds
furnishes an ideal garden or Grecian
theater. Tall trees, vines and old
fashioned flowers from an inclosure

for the garden theater. By Spring
several productions will be ready for
presentation in this idyllic theater.

opposite end of the spacious room Is
a huge mirror, above which hangs
silk batik, done in gorgeous blues, in
tensified with black. Opening out Of
the studio room are inches, affording
ample space for cloak, dressing and
scene-shifting rooms.
Mrs. Foote has produced plays and
organized theater groups in British
Columbia, South America. Mexico and
the United States. Since residing in
Arlington County she has directed
plays for the Woman's City Club Of
Washington, the Arlington Woman's
Club and the Creative Arts Club. Last
Spring she was stage director for the
Professional Writer'S Club at their
debut and newspaper pow WOW. Her
only personal appearance in WASH
ington was in an annual one-act tour
nament where she was recognized as
an artist in a character role and won
the honor for that season, She has
encouraged and trained numerous
young men and women with stardust
in their eyes, giving them the benefit
Of her extensive and varied profess
sional experience.
H%t
HER dramatic career began as a girl
In her early teens in Minneapolis,
Mimi. when the famous actor, Fred
erick Ward, heard her in short read
ing during the days that elocution
was in vogue. He was so pleased with
her that he gave her a role in
benefit performance of Romeo and
Juliet" Her success, under the tute-
lage Of this renowned man, gave her a
feeling Of confidence and brought
numerous offers from small companies,
which finally brought her into the
Frawley Stock Co. Later she joined
the Empire Stock Co. of Columbus,
Ohio. At one time she created her own
vaudeville acts. Several years ago
this talented actress began to study
lighting effects. designing and costum-
ing in New York City. There she
worked in the Greenwich Village
Theater and the Criterion Theater.
From New York she went to Buenos
Aires, where she managed the concert
tour of Nine. Lubovska. interna-
tionally known classic interpretatiye
dancer.
After her marriage to Mr. Willard
Foote she gave up her professional
stage life and devoted her time and
talents to her home and family At a
comparatively young age she was left
widow with two young children to
support, but III spite Of difficulties
and family responsibilities she has
kept alive her dramatic and artistic
ideals.
When the curtain rises Tuesday
evening, November 10, one Of the
dreams and ambitions Of the artist
will be realized. Convinced the legiti-
mate stage is now coming back into
its own. she believes chances for
theatrical success are much more
numerous today than they have been
for years She further believes that
dramatic and voice training and
physical education are as essential to

In a few moments the ship of

left in peace and quiet for a time
duivered under the impact Of a
strange cannonball crashing against
the mainmast and flying all over the
place in such small fragments that
the nature of the ammunition could
not be determined. A moment later
another ball struck two men on the
deck. killing them instantly and
ricocheted to the opposite bulwark,
also bursting into bits. Four or five
more went slap through the Admirals
sails and as the firing seemed to be in
oreasing in frequency and strength. and
the admiral was convinced that Coe
had discovered some strange new
bomb with which to annihilate his
ship. he quietly gave the order to
withdraw and actually sailed out of
the fight to departing broadside of
Dutch cheeses!

foundation of truth in it or not have

relates an unusual role for a round
