John D. Rockefeller: "It was learned that a Washington man named Lidoff has made my wigs ever since I resorted to artificial hair. It takes six weeks to fashion each head covering, as each must be formed hair by hair. I have one wig for golf, another for church and several other ordinary wigs."

Ferdinand, King of Rumania:

"To ensure against royal scandal, my son-in-law, King Alexander of Serbia, promised not to visit France for a year after marrying my daughter, Princess Marie. His year is up. He is going to Paris in- cognito. It is reported that my wife, Queen Marie, will send me to observe his doings."

Andrew J. Volstead: "I sailed for Europe."

Gabriele d'Annunzio, Italian soldier-poet: "It is reported that upon hearing that Eleanora Duse, whom I once loved but whom I have not seen for years, is to play in Manhattan this Fall in my Citta Morta, I said: 'If it be true, I shall be there myself! Nothing has affected me in years as has this news!'"

Eleanora Duse, Italian actress: "Asked what actress I had seen in London this year that particularly interested me, I answered in a way that will please Americans. Without delay, I said: 'Pauline Lord.' She was in Eugene O'Neill's Anna Christie."

Henry Ford: "I presented Mr. and Mrs. Thomas A. Edison with an automobile for their vacation tour. I selected a make other than my own."

Ann Pennington, dancer: "The outer room of a hairdressing parlor at No. 1417 F. St., Washington, is adorned by a photograph of me, balanced on one toe. I gave this picture to the hairdresser in gratitude for a permanent wave well executed. Mrs. Coolidge entered this parlor early on her first day in Washington and called for a plain, old-fashioned shampoo followed by a conservative arrangement of her dark hair. Mrs. Coolidge uses no face clay, powder or cosmetics."

Suzanne Lenglen, French tennis player: "I told a London radio audience how I keep my stockings up in play, why I sometimes cry on the court, what it is like to be a cham pion at Wimbledon and what a false legend it is that depicts me as a slave of my father, who is really very kind and patient. 'How do I keep them up?' said I. 'I roll a piece of elastic around twice' ... 'I am laughed at that I cry. I do not, but I just have dust in my eye.' "
