Copyright, 1922, (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co, OR one brief moment it seemed as if the flapper solution were settled once and for all—‘'The flapper flaps because her mother flaps." No less a person than Representative Alice Robertson of Oklahoma, the only woman in Congress, has just come forth with this statement. *You can blame the flapper's mother every time," said Miss Robertson. “As the mothers flap, so flap the youngsters.

After having reigned for years as a queen of the stage, acquainted with every luxury, she becam: destitute in her old age. She died in Paris 119 years ago at the age of eighty. Born in Flanders, she made her stage debut at the age of thir- teen. For a time she was an opera singer, but her greatest success was achieved in the dramas of Voltaire, and she con- tributed largely to the success of several of his tragedies. The old Sage was so greatly pleased with her work that he invited her to Ferney, where she performed in the private theatre of the illus- trious exile. When fifty years of age she be- came a favorite of the Margrave Charles Christian Alexander of Anspach, the ruler of a petty German state, and she resided at his court for eighteen years, when she was supplanted in his affections by the Countess of Craven, wife of the then Earl of Craven.

Prof. Horne raised his eyebrows as he said “A few, perhaps, in New York City, but what of the mothers in the mothers suburbs, of the mothers all around us ‘a New Jersey, Brooklyn, States Island and on the outskirts of all this city, and in the heart of it, too?
