WORKING GIRL
Is Hope of the Nation, Says
Well Known Artist

Atlantic City.-"The modern girl
has no heart, nor soul, nor sentiment
if she has she refuses to admit"
said Frank x. Leyendecker, one of the
best known artists and illustrators in
the country. "You do not dare to talk
to the fapper of the classics, nor of
other serious things, he confined, "for
she simply will make no attempt to
absorb them. She is idle, frivolous
and needless of tomorrow However,
| will admit she is charming and
often irrestible. She looks so young
but knows so much-much that she
could do we'll not to know. She as
sumes no responsibility; she seeks
nothing but amusement. When boy
reaches the fapper age he usually
has some obligation to fulfill. He
gets a job, or else he is branded as
a loafer. The girl, however, spends
her time reading frothy literature and
smoking.
"This seems hard judgment on
the fapper, but | feel justified in pro-
nouncing it, using my own observa-
tions as a basis.
'ln my opinion, the only hope of
the nation rests on the working girl.
She has my deepest respect She is
doing her share, and large one it
is, to help the world progress in the
right direction.
''She thinks too much of her leis-
ure, knowing how precious it is, to
waste it as the fiapper does She uses
it for the development of her brain or
the health of her body. She has more
originality and individuality than the
fapper, who looks to me as if she
were made from die. Each working
girl has her particular style in clothes
and coiffure-but the fapper! How
can you tell one from the other?
"For a cover of a well-known mag
azine | drew my ideas of the fapper.
| showed a huge butterfly, in gorgeous
colors, with a girl as the body, her
arms extending into the wings, her
hand tilted in an irresistible way-the
whole buoyant and airly-like, ready to
sip from life every pleasure That
is my idea of the flapper She is en-
gaging to a point, but her depth is
soon sounded"
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1923-08-31

he is dishonest, but considered smart;
if he is in politics you can't place
him, as he is an undesirable citizen;
if he goes to church, he is hypocrite;
if he stays away from church he is a
sinner and damned; if he donates to
foreign missions, he does it for show;
if he doesn't he is stingy and tight
wad. When he first comes into the
world, everybody wants to kiss him,
before he goes out, they all want to
kick him. If he dies young, there
was great future before him. If
he lives to ripe, old age, he is sim
ply in the way and living to save
funeral expenses. This life is funny
road, but we all like to travel it, just
the same"
