Girls Can Hire
Beaux IN London

London shopgirls who cant catch
a beau" have solved the problem.
They merely go out and hire them
by the hour, by the afternoon or by
the evening. Some of them have a
STEADY" by the week.
The men are called walkers out"
and they usually are working chaps
who have good looks, nobby clothes
and the gift of CAB. In the East
End Of London and the manufacturin
towns in England especially, the
finger of scorn is always ready tc
be pointed at the girl who has nc
Lothario to dance attendance OF
her, to escort her to picture palace
or theatre, and this is a situation
which no daughter of Eve could tol
crate.
The consequence is natural Tn
maid who cannot attract man byhe
charms often is very willing to pa,
for his company. and there is neve
ny lack OF gallants cage
to play the role Of escort to her
for a consideration.
