SCIENCE OF DRESSING
LOW NECKS ADVOCATED. By Telegraph—Press Assn. —Copyright. j London, Nov. 18. i “Blouses are all nonsense; a girl never eaught a complaint through wearing low-necked clothing,” said Professor Leonard Hill when lecturing at the Institute of Hygiene. "Low necks harden and help her to resist disease. Short skirts and silk stockings are also beneficial, especially artificial silk, which will allow the ultra-violet rays to penetrate to the skin, resulting in sun-burning. "Women’s success in swimming the Channel is partly attributable to their training to endure cold more than men, who are over-coddled. Men should disi card collars and adopt open necks and knickerbockers or running shorts. The Prince of Wales could start the fashion 1 ,by appearing in an open-necked shirt.” |
