NAUGHTY MOBILES
SCANDALSACITATE
JAPANESE PRESS
Students Debate Whether
P0etess Is Justified in
Leaving Husband.

TOKYO. Jan. S.-Nippon has been
annoyed of late because some of her
narikins and mobiles have been
naughty.
The narikins are the boys who
got rich quick during the war. When
It comes to spending and staging lit
tie parties with plenty Of snap, some
Of 'em can Guido Broadwsy's best.
Then there are the gay young bIoods
with noble names and a marvellous
eye for the geisha. The two groups
have been treating Tokyo to some
rich and racy scandal This the
press faithfully plasters all over the
front page. followed by long edi-
torials bemoaning such scandalous
tendencies and beseeching the whoop-
'em-up bunch TO return to the straight
and narrow.
Sky's the Limit.
Also the yellow papers here have
had rich pickings OF late in a flock
Of divorce suits that constitute a sort
of kimona- and-cherry- blossom version
Of similar affairs in the States.
This sort of'thing is new in Japan.
The papers have half their editorial
writers busy pointing out that the
great mass Of the people haven't gone
to the bow-wows. The papers are
tremendously serious about it-edi-
torially. But on the front page (Which
Is their back page) the zippier the
detail the. greater their glee. The
sky's the limit.
Consider the case of Aki-ko. THE
White Lotus" dubbed by the japan
csc newspapers the Queen of Chi
kusi." Aki-ko. one OF the most pop
ular Japanese poets. and wife of an
old and exceedingly wealthy noble,
sued her husband for divorce not
long ago. meanwhile trekking away
to a fashionable resort with an i'm
peculious young student who adored
her poetry.
students Debate.
One of the big newspapers put over
a beat by getting the first inter-
view with the White Lotus. Its prin-
cipsl rival retaIiated with a few
choice words from Friend Husband.
They proceeded. in effect, to try the
case in the newspapers. The one
which first interviewed Aki-ko ies-
poused her cause: the other. that Of
her husband. Each dug up new evil
dence every day. The people took
up the argument. In one college the
students held debates on tho ques-
ton: Resolved, That the White Lo-
tus Is Entirely justified in Leaving
Her Honorable Lord In another
girls college a class struck because
they said. their professor was an old
fOEey and forbade their deha tinp tho
momentous question.
Meanwhile Deserted Husband filed
libel suit for l0.00o.o 900 yen against
the newspaper supporting Aki-ko,
and Aki-ko wrote a new book of
poetry which sold like hot cakes
The only bet that was overlooked
was breaking into the movies. and,
of course, that may come any day.

BY w. L. GEORGE.

NEW YORK, Jan. SIT Is one OF
the curiosities Of life that the very
young should prove repulsive to the
old. 1t is as IL wise parent were
to look upon. his child to see what
he should avoid.
There is about the young a bold
ness. a loudness, which irritates
those whose years aspire to quiet;
they pronounce words modern
girl with horror. the word FLAP
per- with contempt. 1t seems a
pity to me. who loves the bright.
laughing. high-heeled. low-bloused
little animal some call a flapper.
That nice child is the first proof of
the future woman, and We have no
right to complain IL this earliest
specimen appears rather heavily
linked and smudgy at the edges.
Some FIappers at Forty.
Besides. Tapping is not a matter
Of age; some of us are born flap
pers; while others at Is have in
them less flap than a flag on a wet
Fourth. We all know fiappers of
forty. and we know them as little
as we can, for ii Is sad when the
hashed mutton of maturity gar
nishes itself with the frivolous
parsley of youth.
The true flapper begins before
she leaves school. Eventually she
marries and flaps only within the
home-that is IL she is wise. Thus
it is the unmarried flapper who
interests us; she seems to have so
good a time. visiting in one day
four restaurants, two thcaters.
and three movies. attended always
by an ever-changing man. And yet
tho world does cruel things to
flappers.
In Aruala Trent I draw tho pic
ture of flapper. She liked pleasure
and she liked men, in which tastes
/ see no crime. Being poor she
could get only what men gave her.
So men took. II Aruala had not
been brave enough to bear all
things. she would have been unit
to dare all things: she would not
have survived a life Of misery and
tOiling, coming at last upOa mar
riage and happiness. knowing her
self and her own strength.
Tears Near Merriment.
That is perhaps the story of
many Of the fiappers we laugh at.
In many Of them lies tragedy, love-
illness, poverty, unreallzed ambi-
tiOns. despised love. inability TO
love. 1 suggest that a kindlier eve
should be allowed to rest on the
1apper as she struts along the
Great White Way. Her hardness Is
often a defense; her shrill laughter
holds a note of pain: her lust for
pleasure is not only a healthy lust
for life but an attempt to crowd
some emotion into an existence
otherwise empty.
Tears are always near this mer-
riment, for the flapper is a woman.
able to suffer and to love. Why Is
she a fiapper" Why does she re-
main a flapper? Because true love,
real life does not readily give her
a chance to be woman 1t is not
entirely her own fault.
