NOW AND THEN the serviceman views (usually with alarm) a Japanese woman sporting the oriental picture book hair-do. Immense piles of hair are stacked on her head and through them run combs and flowers and other attractive odds-and-ends. The Geisha Girl especially is noted for this flamboyant coiffure.

When it comes time for the hair-dressed lady to hit the sack it is understandable that she does not wish to have her elaborate hair-do hit the rocks. To preserve hair-do order, she rests her head on a roll of cloth supported by a block of wood. This permits her head and hair to hang free, unmolested and un-mussed. It's not a particularly comfortable pillow, but it saves hours before a mirror.

And when the serviceman gets home--whether his hair is wavy, crew-cut, or vanishing--he knows what kind of pillow he wants.
