“Girls Getting Too Jazzy— More Unconventional Every Day” Miss Chaires Would Tone Flappers Down By Fining Them $1 Per Flap.

Chaires of No, 746 Madison Avenue, who is in charge of the camp, the girls, who range in years from sixteen to twenty-one, are going to be REFINHD and only do the things “Nice People” do. And in order to be sure these flap- pers will not flap Miss Chatres has jaid down the above set of fines to be paid for certain so-called mis- demeanors of the camp, The money which ts collected (and personally [ am wondering if it won't amount to @ fortune) will be used in scholarships for the girls at camp next summer. ‘Miss Chaires, a round-faced, plump Uttle woman of middle age, is the founder and Principal of Miss Chaires's )utdoor School, and, although her ex- fence previously has been with dren between the ages of three eight, she thinks it her duty to Yeook after the present-day young woman. Like Rachel Crothers, with her “Nice People,” Miss Chaires feels that the present-day girl is going too far, and therefore, she is going to fone her down a bit. “Girls are getting more jazzy, more Unconventional and more shocking every day,” Miss Chaires told me. “I believe in young girls having a good time. I am a Southern girl myself, born in Tallahassee, Fia. and you know that means I love to eat, love to Bee young folk have a good time nd am far from a chilly disposition, BUT the modern girl is going tuo far, We must stop her.” ‘And so you are going to fine her?” “d want to take a group of young ‘women off into the country to let them ‘wear bloomers {! they like, but when they wear skirts they must BE skirts, reaching at least six inches over th knee, I want them to dance decently, to use good Bnglish, to refrain from the popular slang, quit saying damn (and worse than that), to stop smok- ing cigarettes and doing all these wild things we hear about ‘g0es into fits over that you can’t shock ther, But put her out in the country, let her get out with nature, hike, row, swim, get up early in the morning and turn in at nine or ten at night, and @he will see herself in her true “and of course if she has to pay a dollar or fifty cents every time she returns to her old faults, that, too, open camp July 15 and remain there ‘until Sept. 10, Of course, [ hope that many of the girls who are coming to camp will not be addicted to any of the habits which will cause their es.

Men learned the secret long ago, Whenever a man has a gloom or a grouch— When his girl goes to the theatre with the OTHER man, When his wife says she doesn’t see why she ever married him, When his boss gives him the wrong vacation date, When he has to pay his income tax, When he oversleeps in the morning, finds his coffee too weak, has to stand up in the train all the way given three wrong telephone num- bers in succession— Then, every MAN goes out and “buys something!” It's more expensive now than in B.
