BILLY SUNDAY SCORES PARENTS FOR DRESS OF MODERN FLAPPERS PORTLAND, Aug. 29.—Not the children, but the* parents are to blame when “flappers” run around the streets with their stockings rolled down, their forms adorned with peek-a-boo waists and short skirts and their hair all frizzied up. Such is the vigorous opinion en tertained by the Rev. Billy Sun- day and expounded at some length to 10,000 people here yesterday. “Any man who can look at the short skirted, bare-necked, frizzied. haired, gum-chewing, fudge-eating modern flapper without having a mora) blowout id get a gov- ernment pension,” declared the Reverand Billy. On the subject of prayer, Sun- day said; “Some men will not pray ntil they see the undertaker get the embalming fluid ready and the quartet begin to practice “Lead, Kindly Light.” MORE WORK, IS SCHOOL EDICT Teachers to Be Warned of Pupils King county teachers will assem- They are members of what ts} Bonides the Treadweila, the Ro |. eetuniee—at least carrots and cel-| dle in Broadway high school Wed- nesday morning for their 43rd annual institute, With this meeting, A. 8.
