French Girls Surely Beauties
The following is what a Sammy
"over there" has to say about the
dainty French madamoiselles:
The average run of French girls
are surely beauties. But I don't think
beauties expresses it fully. They are
sure enough peaches. Partly because
they can't help it, and mostly be-
cause they understand so well the |
art of manufacturing beauty. Most
all of them are artists with the needle, |
powder puff, paint and lip stick. |
They dress we'll on little or moth |
ng and they know what to wear
md where to wear it.
They are much better entertain
:rs than most American girls are as
rule. Because every young madam
'iselle considers it her duty to do her
'est to charm and enliven, partly Be-
:ause her reputation as a vamp is
It stake, and partly because it's a
,abit.
"They are more natural, than
american girls and are not subject
o shocks at out of the way words.
And while they are with you they
re all yours"
