TOO MANY BARBERS.
PROBLEM IN ABERDEEN. Too many people are learning to be barbers in Aberdeen. At least that is the view of the local Hairdressers' Guild, and they are at .variance with the Education Committee oyer the evening classes in the tonsorial art being held in the city. The guild asked the committee to debar from the classes all those not connected with the hairdressing trade, but the committee refused on the grounds that the classes arc run on behalf of the ratepayers. "Unemployment is rife in our trade," said a member, "and by admitting people wholesale to the evening classes the Education Committee has added threefold to our difficulties. The competition for work is so- fierce that women hairdressers go from door to door with- their instruments canvassing for a job "
