ANOTHER LEG THEORY
STORM IN ENGLAND GIRLS’ LOST BEAUTY. LONDON, June 4. English girls ruin their legs with too much golf and tennis, declared Mr Aubrey Hammond, English illustrator and designer for the stage. Now the storm has broken. “ If I want to draw, a woman with perfect legs I have to rely upon my memories of the peerless beauties I met in America years ago,” declared Mr Hammond. Mrs Larcombe says: “ Mr Hammond is singularly unlucky. He must have watched the wrong people. Ugly legs are not ‘inevitable. “Tennis is a natural exercise, and ought to beautify, not ruin, the figure.; “ After all, there are women without beautiful legs who play tennis.” . Miss Anna Zinkeisen, well-known woman artist, declares: “It is incredible that Mr Hammond could not find a good-looking pair of legs. He cannot blame '.tennis for that, when there are such beautifully-formed players, notably. • Mrs Whittingstall, although golfers suffer in beauty by continual trudging in low-heeled, shoes.”. . Airs Beamish admits that strenuous tennis makes the legs too muscular* Unfortunately, she says, many girls do riot trouble about the appearance of their legs. If they did think about them they would not show them so much.
