MILLIONAIRE'S FAD.
Hairdresser Summoned From New York To London. - "ALL A FUSS." (Australian and N.Z. Press Association.) (Received 11.30 a.m.) NEW YORK, September 17. Aricon, the American hairdresser summoned to Europe by the millionaire, William Kenny, on his return to New York, stated: "It was all a fuss about Kenny's hair being spoiled during his holiday. I have been sick in bed and am glad to get home." Kenny travelled on the same ship and was looking well-groomed and happy. William Kenny, an American millionaire, who is slightly bald, could not find one hairdresser on the Continent to whom he could entrust his head. He wanted it cut just so, but the barbers let him down. In despair at last he rang up a kw i York hairdresser on the trans -A tl aiit Ictelephone, and had a conversation which cost him £100. The barber was summoned to London, and Kenny dwelt on the prospect of having a real haircut, even if it cost him £1 a hair.
