Do you have a seat. 1 am delighted to give you this in- terview. Here is an alphabetical list of the girls and if you will read them out as I go along it will make it much easier for me to recount to you my journeying to and from throughout all the earth trying to see them all. “First on your list is VIRGINIA ACKISS. “Oh! Virginia married a French count and is living in France where she thrives on grape juice and chocolate-coated graham crackers.” “RUTH BELL? “Ruth won the Pulitzer Prize this year upon the publica- tion of the diary of her private life.

The last is PHYLLIS STEVENS.” “The poor girl was taken to an asylum after a mental breakdown following a post-graduate course in geometry. 1 certainly do appreciate this interesting account, Miss Mc- Elroy, and be sure to read next Sunday’s edition of the Times.
