^.Purely as a matter of historical research, we present two recent investigations by Cecil de Mille in the matter of garters and stockings. At the left you will observe Julia Faye and Grace Martin demonstrating— graphically, too — that garters have remained essentially the same through the ages. Miss Martin represents the period of three thousand years ago — the ornate portiere era, we would call it. Evolution of Garters QAt the right, the stocking of today and three thousand years ago, as shown by Julia Faye and Elsie Schneider. The silk stocking, you know, is comparatively a recent invention. Miss Schneider demonstrates its ancestor, as worn by the Children of Israel at the time they were worshipping the famous Calf of Gold. Judging from the present trend in stockings, we're headed right back to the era of three thousand years ago. 73
