To the Editor of the "Nonrs-Cutna Datty News."
Str,—The "Shanghai Girls" have been fiercely attacked some days ago by one of the local papers. Tt is to be presumed that the criticism was directed only to a small section of the girls. in which case it is "an exception to the rule."
Speaking fairly, these poor "Shanghai Girls" are not to be blamed—they are simply following the times. They dress themselves, to be attractive. Undoubtedly. all young men, not to mention a large percentage of old men, prefer to see a young lady dressed in a manner as described by the above mentioned local paper.
If the foolish young men like to go about with a "Shanghai Girl" whose lips are rouged, and wearing a rather short skirt or a low-necked blouse, let them remain fools. T am, ete.,
