Book 2 — Lock for a Fancy Hairpin
Reading edition

The Bend in the Pin will Hold in the Hair and Prevent the Loss of the Pin
To avoid losing a fancy hairpin, bend one leg of the pin as shown in the illustration. The hair caught in the notch formed by the bend will prevent the pin from dropping out.—Contributed by W. C. Loy, Rochester, Ind.
A metal surface polished with oil will keep clean longer than when polished dry.
