6 FALSE FEET IN
NEW COIFFUfIES
Braids Not Your Own Again
Ordered in Style by Hair-
Dressers Convention.
[ More curls. more puffs, more
braids—two yards for each woman
—and it urjs-t be artificial.
This is the style order issued by the
hairdressers in convention in (’hicago.
, It is no longer considered a source of
embarrassment to have your next-door
neighbor mention that you use false
hair. It is a sign of being behind the
times If you do not have several yards
| of artificial hair.
At the hairdressing exhibit held in
the Windy City last week each of the
ten handsome models had on an aver
age of two yards of artificial hair on
each coiffure. That is. if tlie puffs and
curls and braids were placed end to
end they would total a length of six
feet.
The headdress worn by Miss Louise
Crawley, the "plume switch coiffure,”
had five leet eight inches, the height of
an ordinary person, of artificial hair in
its arrangement.
The "aeroplane twist” and the "Eiffel
tower knot” were the types of head
dress requiring the extra six feet of
hair. It was announced also that the
marcel wave is coming back.
21 DROWN WHEN SHIP
LANDING PLUNGES 100
INTO THE BALTIC SEA
BERLIN, July 29—Twenty bodies
had been recovered today and it was
feared that the death list would go
much higher as the result of the col
lapse of a landing stage at Binz yes
terday. when mote than 100 persons
were thrown into the Baltic sea.
The landing stage gave way with a
crash while it was thronged with mer
rymakers preparing to go on Sunday
outings. Several tourists were among
the crowd, as the village on the Island
of Rugnn is almost as well known as a
quite seaside resort as for its fishing
industries. There was a scene of wild
confusion as the stage gave way and
fishermen anad others on shore imme
diately put out in boats and rescued all
they could reach.
50,000 DOCK WORKERS,
ON STRIKE, REFUSE TO
OBEY PEACE ORDERS
LONDON, July 29. —Fifty thousand
' striking dock workers today defied their
leaders and refusejl to obey the latters’
command to return to work. But 500
of all the men affected appeared for
work this morning.
Extra police guards were thrown
about all the docks and heavy forces
were held in reserve for riot duty. The
strikers declared their intention to pre
vent work being resumed at any cost.
Members of the sailors and firemen's
unions today .determined to ballot
whether or not they would return to
work. A similar course will be adopted
by the stevedores.
Both organizations will abide by the
result of the votes, regardless of the
instructions of the general strike com
mittee. The majority of the members
of both unions are said to favor fighting
to a finish, declaring that quick starva
. tion. if such be the penalty of continu
. Ing the strike, would be preferable to
the squalid slavery, that the working
conditions offered by the ship masters
would force on them.
