I wondered much how one so poor Should bear a sheaf so fair, While winter lingered in the land And yellow blooms were rare, She looked not to the right nor left, She looked not up nor down, As one who carries thru the streets The King of England's crown. Ah! I have down, And borne sweet buds away, But never for a bunch of flowers Have I worked half a d tossed my shillings I would have boughs, And all the flowers of France Red tulips, standing straight to match The courage of her glance, bought. her lilac But what another won for her She would not count a prize, Fairer than beauty in her arms Shone honor in her eyes. Closer and damper grew the night, Cold fell the drizzling rain, Yet at the corner I must turn And smile at her again. She knew the reason why I smiled, It was not hard to tell; I loved the golden daffodils And she loved them as well! --Marion Susan Campbell. LONDON MAN HAS PECULIAR MANIA A man with a peculiar mania for cutting off girls' hair while on the top of omnibuses in the Metro- polis, John Hamilton, an electri- cian, who already had been con- victed eight times for offences of this nature, was' recently found guilty at the Old Bailey once more and was sentenced to prison for 11 months. In the latest case against him it was stated that a passenger on the bus saw Hamil- ton hold a newspaper close to the complainant's neck and then snip off a plait with a pair of sclssors. | The girl showed her hair to the Recorded, who asked: "Are you going to shingle?" "No," the girl replied A detective-sergeant testi- fled that every time Hamilton came out of prison complaints were made by girls of their hair being cut off in this way, The victims were always girls of from 14 to 16 years of age. The accused had sold some of the hair, obtaining from 35 cents to 50 cents an ounce for it. He had been medically re- ported on twice but each time he was said to be quite sane. BARBER SHOPS Not so very long ago, men rais- ed their hands in horror at the ap-| pearance of women in barber shops. Now the tables have been turned, for males have crashed the beauty '"shoppes." The permanent wave has been the downfall of the male resolution, and here and there about the city is now to be noticed faultlessly waved male hair that had its genesis under the perman- ent waving machines of the district beauty shops. While Vancouver males have not taken to this kind of beauty cul- ture in any great numbers, opera- tors throughout the city declare that the occasional youth drifts in- to their establishments and has the front of his hair carefully waved. Seattle and Los Angeles are more to the fore with adotaed male heads than any of the other coast cities, declares an official of the licensing department of the State of Washington. Spokane, too, has its addicts, It is estimated that Vancouver spends $500,000 annually on beau- ty culture and its 190 licensed shops have shown 23 per cent in- crease in the past year. With ev- ery bobbed head requiring about $9.00 annually for hair cutting, $30.00 for waving, either perman- ent or marcelling, and another $25 for cosmetics and other incidentals, the well dressed woman contri- butes a large sum to the upkeep of these shops. Averaging about two chairs for the smaller district business they run into elaborate establishments in the down town area, one of the largest beauty sal- ons having been equipped at a cost of $75,000. MUSIC SLU GUESTS) PRESENT PROGRAM Four Artists From Toronto Are Treat to Music Club Members and Guests The Oshawa Music Study Club met last evening in Rotary Hall when guests of the soclety present- ed the programme, Miss G.

Stevenson, Toronto, and Miss Lillian Rittenhouse, pu- pil of Mona Bates, were the solo- ists and the following was the pro- gramme: "Impromptu in B," by Schubert and "Gavotte," by Sap- pellnikoff for piano. Miss Rittenhouse delighted her audience with these two numbers as in all her other appearances on the programme. She is a clever young artist of charming personal- ity and she gave much pleasure in her interpretation of a very ex- acting programme, Miss Brown appeared next with "Depuis le Jeur," from 'Louise' by Charpentier as her opening number in which was digplayed the range and versatility of her voice. The reception accorded Miss Brown increased in warmth with each of her appearances and following her second number she gave as an en- core "What is a Song?" by Pearl Curran. Mr. Trumbell made his first ap- pearance in "La Fleur que tu M' Avais Jetee" from Bizet's "Car- men' and was well received both here and in subsequent numbers when he responded to an encore with "The Sleigh" by Richard Kountz, and "Fleurette" by Dalsy Miss Brown sang a Swedish Folk Song of the 18th century and Kra- mer's "Last Hour' as her second group.

Miss Margaret Sisley of Toronto, was the accompanist for the even- ing and she did her work in an able and judicious fashion. The singing of God Save the King brought the meeting to a close. WOMEN'S CURLING CLUBS Killam and Strome, Alberta, have women's curling clubs, The Killam women curlers met and re- organized shortly before Christmas when skips were drawn for the season's play. There are four rinks this winter and possibly there will be still more before the season is much further advanced. There is talk of a bonspiel being held be- tween the women curlers of Killam and the women of Strome, pr -- VICE-PRESIDENT OF CLUB Miss Mary Chestnut, vice-president of the recently organized Uni- versity of Manitoba Club. which is holding a reunion dance Feb. 1 for graduates of the Univer- sity of Manitoba. AMERICAN WOMEN NAVAL CONFERENCE Ishbel MacDonald Official Hostess to Wives of Delegates Frocks were unpacked, invita- tions scanned and decisions made about dates, by the wives of the delegates to the naval conference as they prepared for a flurry of teas, receptions and luncheons be- ginning with the opening of the conference on Tuesday, All official London is planning a series of en- tertainments for the women visi- tors, but the details of dates and the nature of the functions were held up until the program of con- ference mectings was settled. Ishbel MacDonald, daughter of the Prime Minister. as chief offi- clal hostess, has already decided to give dinner parties for the wives of the delegates whenever their hushands are occupied with con- ference dinners. She will be as- sisted by women in London gocvern- ment circles on each occasion. English reporters are startled with the smartness of appearance of the American women. The dress and assurance of the young women seemed to have played havoc with the news sense of most reporters. "In England it is only actresses who look so smart and striking" wrote one. 'Nearly all the typists wore beautiful fur coats. All the zirls wore their scarves gracsfully swathed inside thelr coats. Eng- lish girls would have tied them in fussy knots," was another account. The make-up on the American women seem to surprise most writ- ers, one of whom stated that "Ev- ery American typist was made up thickly enough for the stage." That led to comparisons with the natural beauty of the English girls' complexions. However, In the end it was the Americans who won the favor for The Evening Standard wrote that 'the older American women are charming." One news agency reporter who went to Plymouth to meet the George Washington, had a difficult moment when he tried to compel a Young woman secretary to say whether she hopes to win an Eng- lish fiance during the conference. Her quick retort was, "I heard the Prince of Wales is out of town." Another was embarrassed when he was asked if the tulips were blooming In Hyde Park. He hat- ed to admit that he had not seen Hyde Park for years. Line Lyla B. Pinkham's Yogetable Compound ur. E.
