No newspaper, letter or conversation is now complete without some mention of the ''flapper.'" She is any age over 12, dresses as she pleases, goes where she pleases, says what she likes, does the unusual and cares nothing for advice, remonstrance or person or persons whatever.
It has come to that pass in the U.S. A. that no parent strikes a child except in self-defence. That is one reason why the flapper exists at all—there may be others. The age limit is a variable, few flap over 60.
