others, for the faulty American walkers who are loping along at
such awkward gaits that the partners are in a state of despair. “You should swing along from the hips, like the Indians used to,” George Fitzgerald explained. today ...the women wear high heels for walking . . enough. oxygen, and.” he added despondently, goes dribbling along.”
