Deauville. France, Aug. p. =
Deauville is nothing like Asbury
Park. nor any other of the At
lantic ocean boardwalk towns.
Here they wear 'em bare from
the knees down, or are put off
the beaches. The city dads have
so ordered it by ordinance, all
signed with the great seal and
the burgomeister's flourishes.
No, it's not so much that the
fathers like 'em bare themselves.
They're old, and seldom go to the
beach. 1t is the extravagance
of wearing frail silk stockings in
the ocean.
Hearing that American visitors
were wearing silk hose in swim
ming, the alderman went to see.
The entire town was aroused.
Then the resolutions were passed
denying the wearing of stockings
on the beach as "a wasteful ex-
travagsnce. and unpatriotic" and
ordering the bare leg cult.
The very strictest bathing suit
economy is now enforced by
beach attendants with authority
to put on the sands any who
transgress with too much clothes.
