Gail Girls Are Lovely"

Irving r. Wiles, an illustrator whose por-
traits of women have attracted much at
tention said yesterday that he thought the
New York girl would be hard to surpass
anywhere.
Il admire the women of the SOUTH said
he, land there are no doubt many pretty
girls in Baltimore, for they should certain
ly have the southern type of beauty. Ten
nessee has some of the loveliest girls in
the world-tall, many of them light haired,
and they have a certain languid speech and
a certain languor of movement which add
to their charm. 1t is individual. The New
York girl leads the world She has SPARKLE
vivacity and yet dignity. 1t would be diff
f1cult to analyze her charm. 1t is not be-
cause her features are regular, for often
they are not SO. She has an individuality
that cannot be initiated"
"All girls are lovely" declared Walter
W. Watrous, a well-known painter and the
secretary of the American Academy of De-
sign. Beauty is an exotic, and there are
beautiful girls in Baltimore and in Philadel-
phia and in New York They are every
where. Does the New York girl dress bet
ter than any other? Well, I'm sure that
/ don't know. 1t is not the dress which
counts, but the girl herself
