For if ever in a ny circums tance Yeu ha ppen to speak of Gym.- 'Tm really a nd truly disgusted," they soy, "Fancy you~ knowing HI~ I" When you hear of perms. and corns. And figures not yet done, Are these fashion ma nnequins? No; Sixth Form in Moths. I. "The laundry g irls". This phrase could give y ou Quite the wrong impressions. But errors'd fly if you could spy On lll.A. at their lessons.
