LADIES EFFECT BARBER SHOPS (Continued from Paco One.) tieed. No more rough talk is heard In the shop and the men are more courteous, the barbers declare.. Although some barbers say that It takes just as Long to shingle bob i wpmau's hair ns It docs to shave i man and cut his hair, others arc of the opinion that if a woman comes to the shop with her hair straight und clean It is not so, even ihoiigh a ladies shingle is more dif ficult than a man's hair cut. Wo men are eglltng educated to where they know what they want when they come to the shop. At fli:t they wvre niori' or less a nuisance lo the barber because liny did Iioi know hat kind of u hair cut Ihcy w anted when I hey ennie In the shop and they and t heir friends would try to I ell the barber how to do it, the barbers state. Now. however, they are getting so they let I h barber do the work as he thinks best and as a result more women tiro satisfied as are the bar bers. The majority of the barbers In this locality are for bobbed hair for women nn7l don't think It will ever go out of fashion. They state they are as n'ady to cater lo the ladles trade as well as the men. ATTEMPTS TO CHECK MOVE FAIL (Continued frm Tagc One:) abolished by order instead of con gressional action exist, (me does not apply to tills office in thu least, according to Mr. I'eare, and the other Mias not applied since Janu ary 17th, when the two branches were consolidated. The lutler or der provides that when the ex penses exceed one-third of the re ceipts, the office may be closed down. Since January 17th. the ex penses have been jippriximat ey one-fourth of the receipts, M r. j I'eare stated today. He sums the matter up wit h I he opinion that although the secretary of interior and the president know I hat the closing order Is unjust, the final nction was taken so that it would not appear to other stales that fa- orltism was being shown. The Ut Grande office has nlwas been recognized as the gengroph ical center of the east Oregon dis trict, which is another reuon Mr. I'eare advances against t he clos ing order. Telegrams 1 leeched Two telegrams were received by M r. I'eare late yesterday, reading as follows; I. Today we received from Ihe secretary of the Interior a message i-eadlng as follows; "After consult itlon with the commissioner of the general land office I regret lo that we cannot consistently change our Tirst decision a.i we are being attacked for itiseriinln.it ion In fa - for of Oregon and Colorado as against' other western states. Cor personal reasons 1 regret this sit -tuition although as an officer I fe- that we are not far from right In (he matter because of the reduc tion of our appropriation of 'il7, niMi Tor the general land ofilee and for the additional p-usuii that tie land offices tthould have been re duced several ears ago."

I feel a gn-al Injustice has been done and 1 think the sec retary of the interior and commis sioner of the general land office did as well ns President CooMdge but they argued if an exception was made at La Grande others would have lo be mad.. In other states and confusion would follow. Sinnotl ami I argued to the secre tary of Ihe interior and the presi dent that this order should never have been made until an opportun- iiy nan neert give.i i ne pmrons oi the office to have a hearing and show the gri-nl public inconveni ence that would follow its closing. The president iias the power to re open the office if. compatible with public opinion and I think comll llous will make that ile.n- in a reasonable time. (Signed.)
