Anne Morgan, who is admittedly "nifty" in her tailor-mades, clings to the plain arrangement of locks that she has affected for years.

Mrs. Lydig Hoyt leaving extreme ear buns and Bushman curl effects to chorus and Breadway promenaders. For years Mrs. Oliver Harrlman has worn her wavy gray hair in a simple manner. It forms a perfect frame for

her patrician face. Although her hair is prematurely gray, can you imagine Mrs. "Ollie" resorting to hair dyes? Gray Hair Softens She realizes that gray hair softens

the face as the years stamp their impress, and her gray head is her chief mark of beauty and distinction. Mrs. Willard Straight, who has always been ultra-conservative without being dowdy, would as soon go barefooted to an artists' ball as adopt the new "fashionable" hair-dress. Her abhorrence of appearing conspicuous is well known, and her semi-

classic profile is always emphasized by a suggestion of Greek treatment of her hair. Mrs. Warren G. Harding wears the marcel, but fancy her adding the ringlets! For evening she affects a rather higher coiffure than it is her wont to wear in the daytime. But both arrangements of the waved locks are virtually the same, and her adherence to what the New York flapper would term "a grandma fashion" has much to do with her well-bred appearance. Mr. Griffith, the movie genius, was

so captivated with Mrs. Harding'

It is usually bundled under a soft, mannish hat, so as to be out of the way at tennis, golf jor horseback riding. For evening she affects a high soft pompadour, entirely becoming to the contour of her head. Better Flappers' Style Among the debbies there is more inclination to follow the hairdressers' dictums, but even here the girls of the better families either bob the hair or wear the merest suggestion of a puff over the ears hardly recognizable as the Broadway bun. Muriel Vanderbilt wears these modified buns. Mrs. Lydig Hoyt comes nearer to following the prevailing fashion than most women of social prominence. But her hair is exceedingly short. Yet she could scarcely devise a

HELPHTG 19,000,000 PEOPLE About 19,000,000 people are insured in the Metropolitan over 16,000,000 under weekly premium policies. The weekly calls of Agents at the policyholders' homes provide a wonderful opportunity for health and) welfare work. The Company has accepted the) opportunity and to-day is at the forefront of public health work In America.

14,000,000 VISITS BY TRAINED NURSES. Free nursing service fa given to In

dustrial policy-holders in 2,800 cities and towns. Trained nurses not only heal the sick but teach right, living. About 14,000,000 visits have been made 2,116,875 in 1921 alone. Numerous letters tell of lives saved.

DISCOVERING DISEASE IN TIME i Free medical examinations often disclosing incipient disease in time to cure it, are granted to Ordinary (annual premium) policy-holders, subject to reasonable conditions.

HELPING THE EMPLOYES TO HELP Employers insuring their employees under Group policies are advised regarding health conditions and accident

prevention, while the employees re- j

ceive the benefits of nursing service and welfare literature.

238,000,000 PIECES OP LITERATURE Attractive booklets and pamphlets in great variety, dealing with the important phases of health and disease, and prepared by leading experts, are distributed broadcast. So far, 238,000,000 copies have been distributed 25,000.000 in 1921. In addition, 18,000,000 copies of The Metropolitan, a health magazine, are Issued annually.

HOW WAS IT DONE? Records kept by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company show an extraordinary decrease in the death rate among its Industrial, or weekly premium, policy-holders. Comparing 1921 with 1911, for example, there were 55,000 less deaths in 1921 than there would have been if the 1911 death rate had prevailed. . What brought about the great saving of life? The general public health movement progress in medical science 'and sanitation other causes, perhaps. But a very great factor has been the tremendous health campaign carried on by the Metropolitan itself. This page tells a part of the story.

FOR THE NATION'S HEALTH 144 health exhibits and emergency hospitals at county fairs last year; 295 "Clean-up" campaigns; agitation by Agents for health legislation; nationwide campaigns against special diseases; sickness and sanitary surveys; a study of municipal health departments; leadership of practically all American research work relating to influenza these are some instances of the Metropolitan's activity in the interest of public health,

k CITY THAT IS WATCHED In Framingham, Mass., the Metropolitan is leading the way in a great experiment, watched by health authorities throughout the country, to demonstrate what proper municipal health regulation can do. Deaths from tuberculosis have dropped from 121 per 100,000 to 40 per annum.
