As a younger boy, Harold wore bangs at times with the hair rather long at the sides in 1904 when he was about 6 years old. These would have been called Dutch boy bangs. He continues wearing bangs in 1906 us cut much shorter at the sides. He begins to wear his hair with a part in late 1907 or 1908 when he was 10--11 years old. Phyllis as a younger girl has relatively short hair, but she begins to wear ringlets at school age. When dressing up, Phillis and Elizabeth when she grew up a bit would wear large whire hair bows.
