MEN’S HAIR
Sir,-If your correspondents chose to study hatless mankind in the mass, they would find that 90 per cent of men without hats have poor heads of hair. In Wellington, the prevalence of windy conditions offers some excuse for the hatless; but they should do as I do-wear a cap. Another reason for incipient baldness in men is the pernicious custom of premature hair-cutting in early boyhood. To ensure good growth in later life, a boy’s hair should not be cut until his third or fourth vear: infringement of this rule
is barbarous. —
L. D.
