The fashion of, bobbed hair was in vogue during the French revolu tion, at least by women who faced decapitation by the guillotine. Testimony to this was disclosed in a grim k'ttle satire, written by a Frenci woman at the time of the Commune, which was found in a mass tof French books and manuscripts obtained by: a large motion picture studio here for research work. The writer com mtnted on the prevalence of shorn tresses in this wise: ''It is the custom before wom en are executed to cut off their hair, that , it may not interfere with the executioner's blade. So all Royalist women-go to the guillotine with their hair off at the neck. Incidentally, the head soon follows this example. ; "Grisettes, as -a bit of humor, began cutting their hair the same way aping the aristocrats in their last fashion.
