Papers from 70 and 10 years Ago are very in- teretting to read. The manner of writing has changed considerably over The years. Quite often an attiele gives a good laugh or two. 'This week when 'reviewing the July 13, 1939 -edition the 'following article caught my ,attffition: Wear Tour Skirt At Might Length Hemlines mow are between 14 and 18 Inches from the floor Mxtrerne versions of The -school girl silhouette are mot for very short women. Nor for tall -girls who have flat, ‘straight - hipped, :boyish figures. The 'former type will find most :becoming --coats that bang straight from the shoulders and 'those 'eh are easy fitting through the trtid- with a small amount of hemline I ' Not 'for Short Women Wide, .swirling (skirts should 'be worn slightly shorter • than .straight ones. • owever, ..don't let all the current discus - on of skirts getting shorter make you forget the Tight skirt length for every pair of legs. Hemlines now are between 14 and 18 inches from . the floor, .o e young and your ligs are beautiful, wear- your clothes ..18 inches from the floor if you like. If your legs arentex- actly • -beautiful wear your skirts longer - without .any trace of self-consciousness (Whatsoever. Immediately after (reading the above •article 1 grabbed (a bigruler .and .measured the length of the skirt -I had on that ;day - 19 .1/2 inches from the floor. .O1, oh! The other skirt in the office ashr-ed 12 inches from the .floor. Another, :rah, ,oh! The was too short &that:be monsidereiltrazen i0years 6? :One 'was :too long -- woUld 'that ire conskierstimatronly 0 years age? 'Not knowing what to write about „This week, 1 'pounced on this idea and ed to go and measure skirt lengths of women on the streets. As it was very hot ,day, my ad manager gracefully Of- fered -to carry the ruler and do the measuring, while I ., recortleti the statistics. 1 consented, ,always keepinging in mind of course, the chance of a good photo. Most women when a man Ap- proaches their legs with ruler tend to jump, and I was sure I just ,might be able to catch a _flying fist on .camera. Me (surveyed eight -.Other women, "two of which would have been :considered too short and six of width fell within the recommended guidelines SO years Ago. , 'Me next :area to ponder was if 'the two, whose Skirts were too short, were young with beautiful legs. Touchy subject, right? .ancl one I'm -not going to touch. Mterall, age Is a state of 'the mind and beauty is th the eye of 'the beholder - so we're told. What I, as a female, consider beautiful could very well be considered ugly by another female. And what a male con- siders as a pair of :beautiful legs would more 'than If .u I " I fernales_p • view. Today any length seems to be fashionable - from eight inches to 29 in- ches off the floor. Most of us wear what we feel comfortable in "without any trace of self-consciousness whatsoever". There are added benefits to' the longer length - less chance of runs in pantyhose showing, skinny legs or plump legs are bending over can be performed without exposing all you are -endowed with, and you .can probably get away with performing 'that bah* removal chore tevery (other day!
