CANADIAN FLAPPERS
 ADVISED TO BOB HAIR

CALGARY, Alta, Aug. 14.-Aftel being ridiculed, laughed at, talked about and generally made fun of Canadian flappers will be glad tC know that at least they have some sympathizers who are not against the bobbing of hair.
 It is declared to be strictly pers- onal matter by the local Council of Women and the Calgary flappers have a strong champion in the Coun- cil. They have been advised to go ahead and bob it regardless of what the newspapers or the men have to say about it, and if they lose their jobs because of the length of their hair, the local Council will stand be- hind them in their protests.
 Men, it was most emphatically de- clared, have no right to dictate to women how they shall wear their hair. q wonder what would happen IL We sIdILeu HI IelllhS the Hleh ho" they should do their hair" was ask ed by several speakers at a recent meeting.
 The decision to champion the cause of the flappers followed a rumor that Calgary employees were discharging girls because of their abbreviated tresses

FLAG LARGE AS HOUSE
 HANGS IN GOVT. OFFICE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-One of the largest American flags in continu- ous use hangs in the court of the Post Office Department building here.
 Suspended from the level of the eighth floor, the flag reaches down to the third and would make rather hefty load for one to carry around, since it weighs ninety pounds.
 The banner, according to accurate measurements, hasa a fly of TO feet 4 inches, hoist 37 feet, field 20x28. It is literally as big as house, accord ing to department officials, who as- sert that a comfortable six-room bungalow could be built on the space the flag awould cover.

New York, Jan. e.-(By the As
ISOLATED Press -Comforts OF home
weigh little when cast in the bal
ance with the interest Of science
1t is declared by those in touch with
museums and learned societies.
Ezpeditions have gone forth from
the United States and foreign coun-
tries into the frozen arctic, the
biistering areas of Africa, and 70
the varying cIimes Of Asia, South
America, and other distant lands
in quest Of animals and vegetable
specimens and data that will add 10
the knowledge OF man.
Some of the explorations have
not stopped with the earth, accord
ing TO those in charge. For instance,
Conan Doyls recently claimed TO
have talked with his dead relatives,
and not a few wireless operators
express belief that kindred souls
somewhere on Mars were trying TO
get in touch with the folks down
here.
Among the expeditions now at
work are:
Seek "Missing Link"
The third Asiatic expedition Of
the American Museum of Natural
History which is TO remain five
years in the Orient, hopeful of
finding the missing link" and sure

data and having d lot Of fun hunt

The Stelanson expedition which
is mapping the little known boun-
daries of WraEgeIs island, north of
Siberia, where Polar bears are
more numerous than anywhere else.
This party of Americans and Is
quimaux expects 10 remain away
two or three years, deyotiIg con-
siderable time TO study of the Arc

Donald 3. Mcmillan and his com
rades are exploring Baffin's Land,
where go touring Esquimaux who
want to see the Arctic first. Their
folk lore contains marvellous &C
counts OF the sparkling icy moun-
tains and fairies to be found there.
An expedition TO hunt gorillas
is trekking IN Africa under the di-
rection OF Carl E. AkeIsy of the
American Museum OF Natural His
tory. Recently he reported having
bagged a family of five.
And SILVER OF Doubt
The milford biological expedi-
ton, which sailed for South Afri-
ca last June, to be gone u couple
of years, expects to spend the com
ing months exploring The head
waters of the Amazon, seeking
Colonel Rooseyelt's River OF Doubt,
and gathering rare plants and herbs
desired by chemists and the medi-
cal profession.
The British expedition which
climbed to within 5000 feet of the
worlds highest summit, the peak
of Mount Everest, in 1921, expects
to go back and finish the job this
year. Minor expeditions are work
ing in Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and
elsewhere, most of them being
American, because Europe has little
money for such enterprises.
