Man Kills Himself Because Wife, Daughter Bobbed Their Hair, June 13, 1926

Gouverneur, N.Y., June 13—Royal Bogardets committed suicide by slashing his throat upon learning that his wife and daughter, Leola, 18, had bobbed their hair. Mrs. Bogardets said that the father had always opposed bobbed hair for either herself or her daughter and when he came home today, he told them they had disgraced him.
