SHIRLEY'S CURLS HAVE NOT BEEN SHORN

Shirley Temple's golden curls, which have entih'ned themselves round the hearts of film-goers all the world over, have not been cut off. Her mother, Mrs. Gertrude Temple, was agliqst at tho idea when to!d that it had Been reported in Lohdon that the world' s most famous curls had bo.on shorn and that eight%ears-old Shirley was ill in bed. ."No a single hair4has boen cut," Mrs. Temple said. "All that has been done is to etyange her style of liairdressing.to suit her picture. Now her .hair is curled back and tied over each ear with a ribbon, and she looks charining that way. "I am sure her fans will love it. She herself is delighted' witli the change. It is untrue that she is ill; she is i'eeling fine. Her thoughts and he» talk now are. all about her visit to Lon-' don in the spring. She's going to make a film there if plans aren't changed. Her great ambition is to see your little Frincesses Elizabeth and Margaret Kose. "Shirley's . change of hair' style is not to make her more sophisticated, although she'is growrng up fast. It's just to sujt her part, and it's a popular style here. "She is 4ft. llin. in height now and weighs 4st. lOjlb. That'll tell you how she's getting big. She has lost eight milk teeth already. "Teddy bears are great pets of hers She has .three speaially lovly dolls called " Elizabeth, Margaret and liose, dressed • just like the pictures of the Frincesses.* "Sh%- loves all kinas of games and plays happily with older cliildi actors at the studios. "1" think for some time it will he best for • Shirley to * continue in. the same. type of picture, but future ones will be more musical. Her voice is developing wonderful ly, and • we must make the most of it. "Believe • me, you'll see those , curls when ye get'to London in the spring."
