her school ,house. She attended.
It was a lovely affair, and a pleas

Dancing Not Permitted.
"Hut teachers in the Kansas schools
cannot dance," Miss. Woosler had al

by a shameful, sinful dance.
To these charges Miss Emma Wll.

Hhc required every teacher to talto

MICHIGAN MAYOR LIFTS
BATHING SUIT 'LIMIT'
ST. JOSEPH, Mich., Aug. 21. The
flapper voto H solidly behind Mayor
A. R. Morford. Why? Because ho
has removed the limit of feminine
bathing attire. By reason of Mayor
Morford's beiilgn attitude all of th"
neighboring beaches have broken in
to a violent rash of one-piece bathing
suits.
"tit. Joe isn't modest," says .Mayor
Morford, "but it champions sensible
sex garb because it believes swimming
is one of the greatest outdoor sports.
Some bathing beaches are so strictly
and prudishly regulated that they are
coming to a slow death. Such a fate
will not befall St. Joe if I can help It."
