Dear Mr.. CAN'T:

Dear Mr.. CAN'T:
1 am writing this hoping that
you will give a certain little girl in
the neighborhood of Twenty-third
and Twenty-second streets little
credit We think she deserves 1t.
She's very patriotic We don't
know her name but she lives on
Twenty second street. So far she
has collected enough paper for six
baseball tickets and she comes to
our homes and picks up the papers
every week.
We think that she is as patriotic
as any American we ever saw.
Won't you please find out who
she is and give her a little encour-
agement She must also have patri-
otto parents to encourage her and
We need more good Americans like
her.
Just an old neighbor who
appreciates living in America

Their designs are definitely smart,
but good for one night only. Such a
one got another of our friends in
his clutches. When she emerged
from his ministrations, the result
was very new, very chic, but very
complicated looking, and so she said,
Its very nice, but how do I comb
it in the morning?" He answered,
"Oh-you couldn't possibly dress it
YOURSELF" The clue to that dilemma
is obvious. She was expected to go

or so, draining her Golfers to keep

even If a girl has enough money to
indulge such a whim, most don't
have the necessary time.
When discussing the situation
Yesterday with one of our friends in

course, we disagree with those hair
dressers because we think there's
money-and plenty of ito be
made by the man who makes a spe-
cialty of coiffures that are both
pretty and practical at the same
time. His repeat business from salts
fled, pleased clients would more than
compensate for the one-night
stands of the other school.
The answer is this: Speak your
piece before Monsieur So-and-So
goes to work on your tresses. Tell
him plainly just what you want and,
II you want his suggestions, be sure
to explain that you want something
that is becoming, yet simple enough
to keep its general lines under your
tender care until your next appoint
ment. When you find one who does
just that, be faithful to him after
your fashion. HairdresSers remind
US of some husbands we've heard
about in that women can't get along
with them and, more important,
can't get along without them.
Wherefore we say-long may they
