I'm dipping in and out of Blackie's Girls' Annual currently, a charity shop buy. I think it published in 1926, given the inscription. It's a collection of stories (in their midst are ones by Josephine Elder and Evelyn Smith), poetry and articles.

From 'Some Hints on Lawn Tennis' (quoting a Mr Beamish):

He says:
"The correct method of grip for the backhand shot is exactly similar to the way a lady holds up her hand-glass before her face."
