ALL IN FUN "Speaking of Barbers" I he barber is one jjerson ivhoni everv male must meet if he wishes to be considered a well-,groomed gentleman, or should I say a "well-trimmed” wolf? Only the \ictims who have sat in the l>arbers chair can sympathize with the Robinson C.rnsoe campus prowler. So for the benefit of the sophisticated cards, who simply loathe the "natural kunks" let's tune in on some of the popular types of people who excel in the Barhering Profession. \'crv often one meets a barber who fermently loves to talk. The minute vou enter the shop lie begins an un interesting monologne that continues until you finally escape. His conversa tion is never anything a customer en joys — marriage problems, mother-in- law whims, or Johnnie’s poor report card. If this uncouth blithe could talk and work, one could endure the jabbing, but no! He jjuts his instru ments down, stares you in the face and blasts away. .S'ometimes a sardonic smile might start him back to work but nothing stops his annoying tray. Exactly opposite to the talkative bar ber is the silent barber. This creature should have lieen a pugilist not a mere ‘hair-trimmer.’ He practically throws you in the chair and pulls your arms from tlie socket as he prepares to drape the 'tattle-tale grey’ cloth around vour shoulders. Fhe next insignificant oliject which he adjusts is the head which the twists and jerks at will. One expects to change positions occasion ally, but this mummy exposes the body to so many positions, that instead of •'stepping-out one exhaustedly "hum bles in” bed. I sometimes wonder if this silent projector works with our special girl friends! Last, and certainly nev, ney row in the barber world is the 'Ideal Barber’. (Have you ever met one?) He always asks, "What style of hair cut do you wish, Sir?”) ,\s soon as you tell him the style, be works diligently until the job is finished, then he turns your chair in such a position that a perfect view of the job performed can be seen, : -\fter you agree that the style is per- j feet, he removes all of the fallen hail j from vour clothes, helps you from the j chair, and asks you to call again, Remeniljering that I must get a hair cut as of today, all of this chatter was all in fun so any similiarity here to any liarber living or dead is purely coincidental. —Herbert Henry
