Summary
Pathe synopsis: At a London swimming pool, we discovered a girl with ingenuity thousands will admire. Although she confesses that swim-hats are prettier than ever before - she just doesn’t like wearing them. Yet she still manages to keep her hair dry by wearing instead a wig - a drip-dry wig that is simply hung up after use.
