A. Blgwood. 23d Although Sydney is aware of an occasional girl barber even in the ordinary hairdressing saloons in the city, as distinct from the establishments which deal wholly with bobbing and shingling and permanent waving (reports our correspondent), it is a little surprised to learn that there are no fewer than 40 young ladies engaged in the hairdressing industry in New South Wales. The army of women and girls who have taken up hairdressing as an occupation is increasing so rapidly that a special branch of the Hairdressers’ Union has been organised for their benefit. Although there is an impression that bobbing and shingling have received a setback recently in Sydney, the demand for labour in women’s hairdressing saloons is greater than ever it was. The old days when a barber was called upon merely to cut the hair or to give one shave are gone. These girls have to be proficient, not only in cutting hair—there are establishments where they are also shaving the male customers—but in permanent waving, dyeing, and tinting, face and scalp treatment, weaving and wigmaking, manicuring, and chiropody. “Whether there is a scarcity of labour or not in the country districts we do not know,” said a party of motoaists who returned from a long trip into the country (states the Auckland Star) on Sunday night, “hut we oven saw men ploughing in the I fields, and quite a number of farmers were busy in the hayfields. Not only were the men busy, but the women wore also busy with their pitchforks and driving the horses close to the stack after the rope had been put round bundles of hay. It is not often now that the hay is forked into drays and taken that wav to the stacks—the cocks are dragged along the ground, as being much the quicker way. Those at work near the roadside did not seem to think thev Were doing much out'of the way by working on Snndav, and. perhaps after all, ; there was little difference as far n° Pabhath breaking was concerned between what the man w r as doing in the paddock compared : with what the mao :,n the road was doing 1 and the wa” ne and his friends spent the Sabbath.” What is cUimed to hr f new reco.-■ for' cargo discharging waa Asade on Wellington wharves the other day. when 3298 tons of m’ved cargo -.Gre discharged from ■ the Fort Melbourne in 27i hours, an average rliocV.-gg of 121 tons an hour. A remarhifi7e feature was that over 2000 tons mixed cargo were discharged in one day.
