The Voice of the People: "The Modern Girl"
The Modern Girl
New York city: During three years of experimenting with the modern girl I have met them all, from blondes with sun-kissed hair and man-kissed lips to brunettes both pretty and dumb. Have met Susie, the show-hound; Doris, the dance-fiend, and Fanny the old-fashioned girl, who raved about herself. Here's my finding: Common sense among modern girls is rare. They are neither intelligent nor clever--just so-so, enough to keep them alive.
