REPAIRS QUICK SERVICE Prehistoric Flappers Concealed Their Ears TUCSON", Ariz., Dec. 28. (VP) Prehistoric flappers who lived in Mexico about 10,000 yearn ago used the same care in concealing their ears that the fair senoritns do today. The sheiks of that period were more worried about their leg line than they were about their waist .measurement. These are two prehistoric fashion notes discovered by Dean Byron Cum mings. professor of archeology at the University of Arizona, in his ex cavations in the pyramid of Cuicuilo 12 miles south of Mexico City. The flappers of the ancient day instead of cduceallng their ears under the now prevalent barrage of hair used large disc like ear plugs made of an American variety of jade. Tire sheiks of that time corded their thighs to give themselves a bandy legged effect that apparently was all the rage. kinds were noted in other parts of the world.
