'This is Thach's own choice as being most significant. Everybody makes a mistake sometime, and that is what this picture does. For you are right, Thach is a blonde and not a brunette. Oh, well, what's a little thing like that! And have you seen Thach's new coiffure? She's got the darlingest bangs! And how many times did she cut her hair in one week? Her busyness indeed shows in that respect, but she is often found busy doing other things, too. You'd be surprised! 25
