MEANING OF WORD '"FLAPPER." Some people inquire as to the meaning; of the yvoro! ''flapper," lpplied of late to young girls of a certain type! The most common ! ;xpIanation is that it arose from the slovenly fad prevailing , unong many of these girls, pf Jeaving overshoes unbuckled, so ;hat they flap as the girls walk. But such girls were called flap pers in England long before this .notion obtains its hold, so this :an hardly be the correct explanation. The dictionary defines a . lapper as a young bird which has not yet learned to fly. Prob ' ibly it was the sportsmen who .first .called the girls by this name.j is their first efforts to achieve their place in the world seemed a lttle suggestive of the early blundering flights of the game birds. These girls may seem awkward, but they have all the charm of outh and enthusiasm. After they become more sophisticated hey .will be less genuine. Modern life makes the inexperience of he flapper somewhat more obvious, because she is less in retire nent than a former generation was. The women'of former years ere trained to live lives of more reserve and seclusion, tending :o develop personalities of a neut,ral ,type,'who broke no lays of -aste or conventionality, but were .not very interesting. -The nodern flapper goes to the other extreme. She is educated for jusiness competition, and must meet men on even terms, and she laturally becomes familiarly acquainted with , a jot of rhen. 1 She oses something of the elusive charm of the former generation, but ier .buoyancy and activity and good cheer win friends. She iio onger emulates the violet, and sometimes is in danger of becom ng' as conspicuous as the sunflower. She may' seem jioydenish, mt if she has good breeding she develops refinement, without los ng.the initiative that is characteristic of her age.

Signed THE PHILOSOPHY OF BROTHER OSTRICH. There's something almost human about the ostrich, father ;han face the unusual, he buries his head in the sand thus expos ng himself, rather 'recklessly, to .the whims of happenstance, re narks a trade journal. ' ' "' . ,' Isn't that just like the phap who ducks under t;he sheets th ninute the furniture creaks? Lots of folks shut their eyes when ;hey need them most. Jn ;he matter of buying something,' for instance the Important justness of spending hard-earned dollars. Who gets the most for hrajatoney? .The man who buys blindly or the fellow who reads advertising and disepvers the thing he really wants and needs'. ' Who is the most economical housekeeper? The woman who buys haphazard, or the one who reads advertising and puts her household purchasing on a business basis ' There's no denying the great value of advertising to those who read it. It protects you against fraud and inferiority. It tells you what is new and good, making you a wise buyer. It saves you money by pointing out for your' consideration only the best pro ducts. ' , ' . Read the advertisements don't be an ostrich. France, Holland and other of the lesser naval powers strong ly defend the use of submarines in warfare, on the ground that Ihey are the weapon with which a weaker nation can defend itself, without having to build costly dreadnaughts at an expense of $10,000,000 apiece. But the world pays an awful price for the privilege of using submarines. It is a mean and dirty form of warfare. slt attacks women and children and old men, equally with the fighters. And besides that it prostrates the shipping in dustry. The peaceful merchant vessels on which the nations de pend for commerce and food are indiscriminately sent to the bot tom of the sea. The submarine cannot always tell what kind of a flap it is attacking, nor what kind of freight and passengers its victims are carrying. Submarines ought to be outlawed, and weak nations should bo protected by international agreement, rather than by using so mean a weapon. -o The total production of gasoiine propelled vehicles up to De cember 1 exceeded 1,500,000, and the total for the whole year will be close to the record and possibly exceed it. Signs like these inaiuue mat uie business depression has been considerably exair rosnerous. I u sum a sum oi money in this means of transportation. While the majority of these cars are used primarily for pleasure pur poses, yet all these machines improve the equipment of the Ameri can people. They save time and permit business and civic work to be carried on in a much more economical way. They facilitate all kinds of public and private enterprises, besides providing mil lions of people with a form of outdoor life that builds up tlieir physical condition. a "After this I'll only answer the matrimonial ads In the i'ollce Ga zette," snlil a well known Ibweburg bachelor today, who until yesterday luid been mourning the long of the "mall order" Judy who fleeced the Medford man out of 700 bucks.
