Editor Chronicle: ? We wish;; to voice' our approval of the article in last week's Chroniele signed "Ob server," which Referred to the habit of girls and young ladies having their hair bobbed in the barber shops here. It most certainly appears entirely out of place to see good-si*ed girls and young ladies in the barber chairs here. "Observer's" suggestion that the girls should have their hair bobbed at home is timely. Also the suggestion that ladies should have their hair bobbed by a lady '"barber is also timely. We think a lady barber in Camden with an office some place down town would be kept busy. ? Citizen.
