 Youth demands room and freedom, and at least a modicun of self expression.
 When our respected elders lift their eyebrows. wag their heads and commlseratingly ask what is to become of the rising gener- atfon, perhaps the flapper will reply in truth that our grand mothers used to ask that same question about our mothers--the finest mothers in all the genera. tions of men and women--just as the great grandmothers did be- fore them, all the way back to dear old Mother Eve herself. Perhaps the answer will be that these poor young things will grow up to be the lovely mothers and grandmothers of tomorrow; and then they too will ask. what Is to become Of the rising gem eration.
 Short skirts, short sleeves and short hair are not passports to destruction. There will be some mistakes and coming to grief in the great sisterhood of flappers. of course. But those will be the mistakes of us all.
 The sacred password among fiappers is, we will keep clean of body, pure of mind and white of soul. Their answer to the much mooted. age-old question is, Let her flap"

HEIGHT OF CHR|ST'S
 EARTHLY MINISTRY
Rev. Robert Miles of Auburn Speaks at First PreSby-
 terian Church

Preaching to a large congregation, Rev. Robert Miles of Auburn filled pr. J. A. MacSporran's pulpit at the First Presbyterian church yesterday morning. MT. Miles took his text from the ninth chapter of Luke, fifty-first verse: He steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem." He gave the vivid background for the text that he stated was contained in one of the fullest chapters in the whole Bible.''
 The speaker pictured the height of Christ's earthly ministry that had been reached in the feeding of the 5000 and the scenes on the Mount of Transfiguration, when the dis ciples had seen the glorified bodies of those men who had not known death, Moses and Elijah.
 Then Jesus had 'steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem. Down through Samaria, a country of bitter hatred for the Jews, His road lay for he needs must go through Sa- maria" said Mir. Miles. Yet on the road there from Transfiguration to Calvary human nature betrayed itself again; the disciples fell to quarreling among themselves as .o who should be the greatest among them in Christ's kingdom.
 Tt was this old, unchanged human nature that necessitated the Masters \ rebuke to them, If any man would be chief among you, let him be the servant of all
 Then Christ 'steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem, with all this behind him, and the rendezvous
 
 what was coming, yet He pressed on toward the city. He went on to Golgotha, that you and I might go on with assurance to eternal life"

Let her flap" was the point of an address by George Lewis Bailes, superintendent of the adult department of the Birming- ham Sunday School association, yesterday before the Maybelle Taylor class of young matrons and business women.
 The so-called 'Flapper' has not only taken a place on the front page, sho has done more. she has taken her place well above the line In organized so- ciety," Mir. Bales said.
 T like George Mathew Adams definition: that the flapper likes happiness and freedom-not any too particular about age-old con- ventions and traditions-clear in mind because she likes the great out-of- doors and drinks to the full from It's stimulants. And I concur In Judge McLaughlin's ruling that courts have no right to tamper with justice because of any farcied dislike for flappers," the speaker continued.
