go on the streets in twos as a means
of self-protectiOn. For this reason
firts fit about in pairs also. The
boldest street flirt stands on the curb
and calls out, "Ahem!" when an I'M
escorted woman passes.
Let me say right here that the he
flirt is not always dapper and suaVe
as most people would have you be-
lieve. Greasy walters fliTt. Old men
with whiskers fliTt. InYalids on
crutches 1irt. In fact anything in
the attire of man shows great in
clination to wiggle and woggle it's
eyes at the female of the species.
The flirt is, alert and active. On
the street he will frequently cough
to attract the attention of a woman
and then try to hold her gaze. In
a crowd f1irt works a good deal like
a pickpocket. He jostles you, says
Excuse me-" and tries to engage you
in conversation.
Another favOTite method with two
male f1irts is for one TO say to the
other as two women go by, ooh, how
do you do (pause) that little trick?"
The first part of the exclamation is
intended as a greeting for the wom-
en-. The last of the sentence is an
attempt to convey the impression
that the two are merely discussing a
personal matter. This is done to pro-
teGt them from arrest. It is the most
subtle form of street Irritation to
which men resort.
Los Angeles, San Francisco and
New York are probably the most pro-
life flirting centers in the country.
In some eastern cities, however, the
f1irt is almost extinct, Legislation
and police regulation have made it so
difficult for him to operate that he
has been driven to other territory.

PRESIDENT POPE
ON PROTECTION

Fort Worth, Texas, Oct. 12.-In
memorial to Congress issued today,
entitled THE American Farmer and
His Government" II. n. Pope, presi-
dent of the Association of State Farm.

all agricultural products, declares that
no country can thrive half protection
and half free, insists that there is no
such thing as hyphenated tariff and
asks that cotton be protected by r.
cent minimum loan from the govern
ment.
The memorial, which goes into an
exhaustive analysis of the subject,
says in part:
The Southern cotton farmer. in de.

been the policy Of this nation ever
since we have had a nation to protect
home industries. Cotton Is our only
agricultural product that cannot be
helped by protective tariff and must.
therefore, seek other means Of protec.
ton. A 12-cent minimum loan on cot
ton will give cotton the same protec.
ton that the tariff can give to other
agricultural products.
Plight Of the Cotton Farmer.
The cotton producer is the only
class OF farmer who has always been
compelled to sell what he produced
on a free market and buy what he
consumed on a protected market and
as a consequence the cotton fields OF
the South have more tenants, more
poverty and more suffering than any
other agricultural area on the West
ern hemisphere. This condition
should challenge but not BATTLE Ameri.

In the case OF the Fourth OF July
