fio Ziegfeid Says Bobbed Hair
Chorus Girls Can’t Stay in His Show
New York, Oct. 13 — Florenz Zieg
tY.ld, producer of the it Follies,” and
international authority on feminine
pulchritude, has declared war on
-ebbed hair, it was learned today,
allowing his rejection of a number
f applicants for chorus places.
<< Papa” Zicgxeld last night nailed a
mlletin in the chorus dressing rooms.
t said that since bobbed hair was
-oon to be out- of style, every Follies
■irl must immediately start letting
her hair grow long, or wear stylish
Transformations.
“Members of the company who
fail to comply with this order will
soon find their places taken by young
women who have let their curls
grow,” warned Mr. Ziegfeld.
M Personality” Killed by Bobs.
‘‘There is more to my objection to
bobbed hair among my chorus than
the fact that it’s becoming out of
style,” he declared today; “I ays
did hate barber work on a grrl’s hdir,
and have fought it consistently.
! Bobbed hair has ‘prussianized’
American womanhood. It has made
them all alike as two peas in a pod.
It has destroyed, that elusive and
priceless quality which the woman of
charm must have—personality; Bobbed
hair is a symptom of that sheep-like
imitativeness which distinctive wom
en abhor.
I first permitted bobbed haired
girls to enter my chorus several
years ago when I was seeking a
J ia, boyish type for a particular
feature number. But in my tableaux
1 have always insisted upon truly
feminine women with luxurious, un
cut hair—because they personify the
itnc *i in American womanhood.
Oh, My Dear! Dishonest!
Bobbed hair, is dishonest. It ad
vertises to the world that a girl or
married woman wants you to believe
.die is youthful. If a woman is
caily alive with youth—mentally and
physically—she need not resort to
ihs standardized, artificial mob-habit
of hair mutilation.
Bobbed hair may be all right, ac
cording to Mr. -Ziegfeld, on the day
time tennis court or in the swimming
pool. But in the evening, at
gatherings, the insists immaculate woman
of fashion on a charming
ANATOLE FRANCE DIES
Tours, France, Oct. 13.—Anatole
France is dead.
His end came peacefully yesterday.
From August last, the state of the
great French writer’s health had
caused anxiety. Gradually his con
dition became worse, until only a few
days ago he himself exposed the
conviction that he had only a few
hours of life remaining.
Owing to his advanced age, 80
years, there was no expectation of
his recovery, but almost up to the
Td he retained his interest in those
"round him and was able at
’,o converse briefly.

coiffure that no beb can provide.
Observe tbe distinctive women of
allure and charm at fashionable
events these days,” he went on. “Al
most invariably they have uncut hair
—done in graceful fashion that har
monizes and brings opt their in
dividual attractiveness, or else they
have adopted graceful, pleasing
transformations to hide their bobs.
a So I have told my girls that they
cannot stay in the Follies eborus un
less they let their hair grow. Bobbed
hair will soon be out of style. My
chorus, must always be leaders in
fashionable appearance. "
