Dear Miss Grey: For several years I have followed your tgterest- ing columns, and have never had the inclination to answer anyone until I read the letter of the “Man Reader Who Thinks.” Isn't he judging all bobbed-hatred ‘women by just the fow he may have come in contact with? I wear jong hair myself (since friend hus- hand objected), but I do believe a woman should do the things she finds pleasure in doing just the same as a man. I do not smoke, but if a@ man finds pleasure in the weed why isn’t it just as fair for a woman to do the same? I have some wonderful friends tn the city, some with bobbed hair— perhaps it does give them the “I don’t care feeling,” and the ones I know do not swear—they may smoke, I will not deny. But I can truthfully say that I have noted no change in thelr characters since they cut their hair. FAIR PLAY. eae Dear Miss Grey: I just must an- swer that letter signed “A Man Reader Who Thinks.” You can easily see that the poor thing is scared for fear that the women are going to usurp and en- joy a little of the freedom that men have always partaken of so freely. And why shouldn't we? We are living in @ progressive period. Should not we women progress with the rest of the machinery? How would he, poor benighted creature, like to go back to the days of the horse car and stage coach and Plowing with ox teams, wearing goatees and powdered wigs?
