CHICAGO MOTHER s SEEK TO PROTECT THEIR INNOCENT s ONS FROM CUILES
 OF CITY'S LARGE CROP OF FLAPPEPS

! can one expect the boy Ito do so. She holds the situation in her hand. It is she who started flapperism and it is she who must end it." Coins New Word
 To Miss Lillian Collier, young and pretty proprietor of the Wind Blew Inn, credit is due for coining snug gle puppng" as a new word for fu- ture dictionaries Since she used [ in court recently after the raiding of
 the center of Bohemian activity in Chlcaeo, 1t has been generally ac- cepted here as a synonym for pet I ting"
 There is no snuggIe pupping at
 the Wind Blew Inn," she announced
 so emphatically that she was allowed
 to keep her place open until it was lraided again for permitting disorder 1 ly conduct. It is open again now
 under an injunction.
 l But whether or not there is snug gle pupping" at the Wind Blew Inn parents recognize that there is plenty
 Of 1t going on right under their noses Among those who held mothers of these "dangerous,'' young flappers re sponsible for the situation at the re- cent convention was Mrs Julius Ros-
 enwald- wife of the president of Sears, Roebuck & Co
 l Mothers Responsible Unless mothers can make their tgirls realize the harmfulness of pet ting parties how can they expect the l girls to learn it outsider" asked Mrs , Rosenwald. "A girl is branded as a i poor sportT and no fun at all if she does not do as the other girls do. Mothers should open their daughters eyes to certain essential facts and teach them at home the value of maintaining some degree of dignity in their actions.
 But girls like to be called snug gle puppies, walled a careworn principal of city school. "They grant the boys liberties. encourage 1 them to take them. and if the young chaps do not follow the pace, they are called sissies, poor boobs or flat tires"
 What have the girls to say about it? They admit that they have mod ern ideas. Students of rhe Chicago school of physical education say frankly that they wouldn't think of going to party with a young man unless he took them at least one way in a taxi"
 This school which annually turns out 100 teachers of physical train- ing. where Delhart movement takes precedence over shimmyins, where smoking is not permitted because it injures the health and where, bysfac-, ulty statement, there is neither corset nor bad habit in the school, the girls frankly admit that no young man can prove his devotion save to the tune of s10 to s25 an evening.
 ~-"We have only two free nights week, Friday and Saturday announc- ed a bobbed hair senior. and those nights we don't want to sit at home. There is too much to do and see in the city.
 If man wishes the pleasure of their society, he has to go out and to spend something besides the even ing. If he hasn't a car of his own fhe'd better get taxi"
 So there you are.
