More or Less True We never yet have seen a flap- per with shingled hair who gave us the impression she’d had her hair cut that way so she could get down that much quicker in the morning to help mother get breakfast. When friend wife tells friend husband that is enough from him she never is referring to money. Mother used to spend just as much time as daughter now does in front of a mirror, but it was a hat instead of a complexion she was trying to get on properly. Next to feeling overdressed the hardest thing for a flapper to do must be to look innocent.

About all that can be said of some flappers’ clothes is that a little is at least better than no- thing. ——————— NOTICE Cars parked in the downtown business district must be drawn up closely beside the sidewalk so as to leave ample room for all traffic in compliance with the City Traffic Ordinance.
