SHINGLED HEADS
CAUSE FATHER’S SUICIDE
OBJECTED TO FASHION
(Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) (Received September 7. 3 p.nt.) PARIS, September 6.
Charles Serlandier, a retired merchant residing at St. Denis, was so opposed to shingling that he announced he would kill himself if his two daughters followed the fashion.
The girls were unable to impress upon their father, who was cut off from the outside world because lie was an invalid, that hair-dressing fashions were changing, and realising that argument was useless they shingled without further discussion.
When they reached home to-night they found their father had carried out his threat and shot himself.
