urally, I made friends with them quite soon and I went to see their show as often as I could. They made two lovely young girls and were a great success.

Their mother brought them from their hotel ready dressed and made up, and no one not in the know could possibly have guessed the two chic and vivacious companions of the smart lady were really transformed boys, so pretty was their face, so slim their waist and girlish their figure, so shapely their silk-stockinged legs and naturally did they walk on their very high heels. One Sunday I was invited to their hotel to see a short rehearsal, which was a sheer delight to me. I had hardly dreamed that any other boy would be dressed openly as a girl--certainly I never expected to see one.
