"A Fig for Convention
 Censured Flappers Cry

Chicago.-The much-maligned flap tells the world that she will continue to roll down her stockings, bob her hair, wear short skirts, affect long ear rings and puff cigarettes if she so chooses, and what do you propose to do about it?
 Miss Margaret Persell, who speaks with delightful Tennessee drawl, is the leader of the new organization, which is to be known as the Royal Order of Flappers. presided over by a ffippant aapper. Miss Persell and four other Chicago bob-haired charmers started the new order. Their bylaws, in brief, are t'A fig for convention and fig leaf for attire, if necessary. " Their motto is, "Arrns virumQue cano" (arms and the man 1 sing).
 The members agree they will take orders from no one but their parents, and most emphatically not from a lot of sour old maids and half portion male refOrmerS. Other features are the offl- cial game of the organization, which is Put and Take.
 Every member may make herself as attractive as possible. She may wear skirts as short as she desires; roil her stockings to a point just above the knee cap, bob her hair, and wear ear rings not exceeding six inches in length. She may use rouge and cosmetics, and, under proper environment, smoke and drink to moderation.
 The official church shall be the movies; the official indoor sport shall be dancing, dining or ''what have you2" Official outdoor recreation shall be skating, swimming and automobll- ing.
