HAIR CUT AFTER HOURS
BARBER FINED TEN SHILLINGS "He had not the heart to send the man away with his hair long," said Mr. P. Jackson in the Magistrate’s Court yesterday when defending the actions of E. Prior, a hairdresser, of Lower Hutt, on whose premises an inspector of the Labour Department had found a customer having his hair cut after hours. Mr. Jackson said the inspector’s visit was made on a Friday night, when there was a rush of customers, and the man referred to had come a long way to have his hair cut. Mr. TV. Mountioy, Inspector of Awards, said that the Wellington Hairdressers’ Assistants’ Award provided that assistants should not be detained longer than five minutes after 8 p.m. A penalty of 10s. was imposed by Mr. W, G. Ridden, S.M.
