Beard versus shaving debated by a London correspondent
A London Daily News correspondent writing as A Working Man argues that facial hair protects nerves and respiratory health, reduces exposure to cold, and aids teeth and chest function. He cites historic beards, ancient figures, and a Hythe Church crypt to claim shaving harms the body and society, ending with a quip on aristocracy and a wife’s rebuke to drinking.
