FAIR GIRL IS MOST POPULAR


"The fair girl has a 80 per cent.
better chance Of marrying than the
dark girl"
This striking statement was made
by a woman who has chaperoned
many debutantes, saying Fair girls
are more tender and loving than
dark girls, but a dark girl is capable
Of a greater and more lasting affec-
tion, once her affection is completely
won"
"Why is it." she continued, "that
one sees so few fair-haired old
maids? They are almost always dark,
possessing more often than not
strong, vigorous minds, with little
sentiment about them.
Personally, / think the fair girl
is shallower than the brunette, more
inclined to be tickle and irrespon-
sible. Her affection is often on the
surface; she is incapable Of thinking
deeply"
With view to discovering the ex.
act facts on this question the opinion
Of a registrar who marries dozens Of
people every day was sought. He
confessed that he knew of no actual
figures on the point, but said he was
quite sure that the fair girl has
better matrimonial chance than the
dark girl. % a.ssr ~ 8"
The number Of fair-haired brides
is remarkable. Fair girls are gen.
orally impressionable and very sweet
and trusting, and these qualities
make an immediate appeal to most
men, while dark girls who often pos
sess more lasting affections, are
stronger willed. ,a-a.
