HIM WHEN HIS HAIR CHANGED •

to. _.light several ‘other interesting
photos.- Among these are two ; pic-
tures of C: •E: Mct onagh,. clerk 'of
Ashfield • taken only a rnatter of
some six weeks apart,, and .yet even
his , closest '.friends • wouldn't recog-
nize the' pictures as portraying. the
same man: • •
Back in.1909, Charlie • had a head
of hair that was both thick and
black .:and a •'moustache that was .a
perfect match. Without warning his
hair commenced to fall out, and
what he didn't lose in that fashion
was. shaved off: With it . went the
moustache. -
When the hair.grew, in again it
was snowy white, ,arid Charlie re-
lates that the first time he. attend,
ed • church ,at Lanes, after " his
"•chaige o hair,". 'even, his best
friends,. including the' . minister,
didn't know him,'and on seeing' the
two pictures, we don't. wonder at
that. .
