Trousered Postwoman Number One

Her telephone number is "Clova 1" and she is officially admitted by the General Post Office to be Britain's Number 1 Postwoman-in-Trousera.

Her name is Jean Cameron; She is 19 years old, and her daily round consists of 12 miles of rough hill country in Glen Clova, Angus, Scotland.

That's why she wanted trousers. And, because Jean is a girl of spirit she didn't see why she shouldn't have them.

She wrote to headquarters asking for an official pair.

Headquarters wrote back and said,

"Certainly,"

"Camerons"

And that's why postwomen in all parts of the country are now able to apply for the offelal issue of trousers, which they are allowed to wear on duty instead of the regula

Out of the compliment to Jean the other girls have already dubbed them "Camerons."

The trousers have zipp fasteners on the hips and a smart red piping: down the side scam.
