Vho Can Reform Flappers?
BY MARIAN HALE.

Flapper prevention-thats the

It's object is to promote safe and
sane freshmen for our colleges and
universities.
1t is based on the theory you
can't cure fapperism, once a victim
has become inoculated with the
germ. but you can prevent inocula-
tion. IL you work fast.
The campaign is not run by the
typical reformer-aged and intol-
Grant
But rather by Youth. By a club
Of girls at the University Of Cali
fornia. headed by Lois Hatch.
Tame them while they are
freshmen" Is the slogan OF the new
reform party.
So Miss Hatch and her co-workers
are Matching up a scheme whereby
rapperism will be made exceedingly
unpopular. at the university next
year.
Each coed will be presented with
a set OF rules, warranted to be 100
per cent. anti-happer Any hazing
that is permitted will be turned in
the direction OF the fiapper.
I'VE must educate it out Of them"
Miss Hatch points out. "Flapperism
is absolutely opposed to good schol-
arship, good sportsmanship and to
college ideals"

The adventure party. the happer's

consists in dividing up any merry

forth in search Of adventure.
This may mean they playfully rob

This new type OF entertainment is
hard on the hostess for she may

COL. HUMPHREYS
NOT WELL LATELY
Aged Confederate Soldier And
Prominent Citizen Confined
To His Home.

1t is a matter of sincere and heart
felt regret to the editor of this paper
to record the fact that Colonel w. d
IHumphries is confined to his home in
i this city because of illness. So ser.
ious did his condition seem last Fri
day that his brother, Mr.. John w.
humphries, who was then in Vir-
ginia, was summoned home by wire.
Mr. Humphries left Virginia on Fri
day night and reached Columbus on
Sunday night. He will remain until
change for the better comes to
Colonel Humphries.
Colonel Humphries left the Gilmer
Hotel a few weeks ago and went to
live in the home of his nieces, Mrs.
Richard Bradley and Miss Elizabeth
Tucker, on Main street, Up to the
time Of the death of his sister, Mrs.
Mary Elizabeth Humphries Tucker, on
January 9th, and that of his beloved
Confederate comrade, Captain Pope,
on January 18th, Colonel Humphries
was unusually active for a man of his
years. His sisters death depressed
him, and the passing of Captain Pope,
eight days later, brought a further
depression. The thought of death did
not disturb him, for many time on
the field of battle he looked the grim
messenger squarely in the eyes with
out flinching. 1t was the idea of
being left alone that caused tight
ening of the heart-strings and sap
ped his strength
However, the cheering news came
from the Tucker home yesterday that
Colonel Humphries had a good nights
rest and was considerably stronger
than he was on Sunday and Monday
1t is hoped that he will continue to
improve and that he will be spared
to us for some time yet. We would
so love to write an account of the
celebration of his one hundrdeth birth
day anniversary.
