Cutting hair does not make it
coarser Cutting or exporsure to sun
does not appear to have any effect
upon the rate or amount of growth
of hair. Dr Trotter said
There is evidence, she added
that plucking hairs, as in eyebrows,
over a long period of time tends
to reduce hair growth.
8ea birds travel inland, away
from the sea, farther than they
travel out to sea. away from land.

human hair are being tackled in a
new way by Dr. Mildred Trotter
at Washington University Medical
School.
Dr Trotter, profesasor of gross
anatomy, wants to loam just what
changes occur in a persons hair
from birth to maturity. Her sub-
jects are Ifl boys and girls, rang-
ing in age from a few hours to 17
years old. She has taken samples
of their hair every month, and is
examining them under the micro-
scope.
She doesn't expect to find any
answers to such problems as why
some people get bald This Is a
project to learn some fundamental
facts about hair.
The work might lead, however to
some way of examining hair and
telling whether it belonged to a
boy or girl, and about how old the
child was, in a kind of “finger-
print” system for hair analysis.
This is the first time. Dr. Trotter
said, that hair of the same persons
will be studied over a long period
of time.
Previously, analysis of hairs
from different Individuals of dif-
ferent ages has shown gradual
changes in the structure of hair oc-
curring with age. The new study
may permit exact tracing of these
changes, what they may mean,
and why hair grows darker with
sge.
Hair flouresces under ultraviolet
or sun-tan light Dr. Trotter is in-
terested in whether the degree of
fluoresence changes and what this
might Indicate.
-Hair research so far has demon-
strated that hair grows coarser
with age—that the Individual hairs
get thicken in diameter. It also in-
dicates that there are only slight
between the
cial memorial plates have been
placed on the reading shelves of
the Denton Public Library in mem-
ory of late c it Isens of the county.
Mrs. T. L. Me II vain of Denton
and Dr. and Mrs W. W Merrymon
of Williamsburg. Va„ gave a most
appropriate selection in memory
of the late Dr. Rebecca M. Evans:
’Petticoat Surgeon” by Bertha Van
Hoosen. This autobiography tells
with a quiet humor about the trial
and rewards of a woman doctor in
sixty years of medicine. Mrs. Bess
McDvain Still and Miss Nannie
Sue Still added "I# Famous Ameri-
can Plays”, edited by Bennett
Cerf and Van H. Cartmell to the
Dr. Evans' memorial.
Dr. and Mrs. Charles H. Saun-
ders and Dr. and Mrs Chas. Saun-
ders presented a memorial fund
for the late Miss Elaine t _
ham of the NTSC Library Staff.
The three winning books in the
Texas Institute of Letters annual
awards, announced this month,
were selected. The SI.000 Carr P

ing national literary magaslnes

ington. Ky. gave an autographed
copy of a very new book for the
library's Denton County History
collection: "Down In the Cross
Timbers" by Worth 8. Ray. a for-
mer newspaper man. This book of

tin in the November 21 Issue of the ‘
Denton Record-Chronicle.
Margie Korn of Dallas gave the !
library two autographed copies of '
her "Here's Howl To Garden in
the Dallas Area ” This book should

ton's soli and climate. I

eign ministers of the U. S., Britain, Russia and France meet in London to try to
map boundaries for Germany. French sources said Foreign Minister Bidault prol>-
ably would support Russian demands that Poland be given the area (between lines
A and B) awarded to it temporarily at the Potsdam conference. Britain and the
United States have insisted that a commission lie named to determine the final bound-
aries. U. S. Secretary of State Marshall hinted that the U. S. was determined to
have Silesia, now occupied by Poland, placed at the service of Europe. Marshall said
the U. S. approved French desire to incorporate the Saar Valley (C) within the
French economy. Flags indicate the present zones of1 occupation of Germany. (AP
