peasant women to discard the long stilettolike hair ornaments they and their fore- mothers have worn for centuries has virtually made a joke so far of an edict of the national authori ties months ago it was decreed that these hairpins must go various excuses for the edict wero given but the reason is generally believed to be fear that the peasants might use these ornaments as weapons the women compromised to the extent of removing their hairpins when they entered the city walls but in the fields outside the ban was ignored in one village the women thus advised the authorities this is a
