the Spanish influence in dressing had
remained down there. | don't want
to create the impression that it has
died away utterly, for the old delight
full costumes are still seen, but the
younger generation has put up fight
for American freedom in dressing
and has won. 1t is rather the fash
ion of Spring 1922, that they have
copied, or else they have refused to
follow a style which lengthens short
skirts to the impeachment of freedom
of limbs. Likewise, they are clinging
to bobbed hair, and it is very becom-
ing.
Don't think that her clothes are
an outward badge of an inward free
dam for they are nothing of the sort, "
Miss Dorothy elucidates. "You never
see a young Cuban girl Tor a woman
either for that matter) enjoying a
brisk hike alone. In fact, she isn't
allowed to hike, and lives an almost
clustered life. She can't go walking
with her sweetheart on the street, or
in the park and she can't entertain
him alone in the parlor, either. Al
ways the. chaperon must be present,
and he isn't allowed to call very often
at that. Frequently, girl becomes
engaged to a man before he is per-
mitted to call. That is the Cuban
way"
The picture which Dorothy draws
of the Cuban flapper is alluring-
straight little one-piece frocks, low
heeled shoes, long and fantastic ear
rings, raven tresses trimmed short
and boyish, little swagger to her
step and an Unsuitable desire for
knowledge of things in the world out
side of her own little island which
characterizes the twentieth century
young miss everywhere.

That the Gypsy Rover" will
be presented by an exceptional

that Madame Omerod, who viii

MADE LUNCHEON FOR EAGLE
Marmot Put Up Good Fight, but Was
outciassed by the Monarch
- Of the Air..

DR.. Ferdinand Ossendowski, in his
book, Beasts, Men and Gods" which
is the story Of many extraordinary
personal experiences Of his flight
through Asia, from Siberia, tells Of
an exciting picture he witnessed when
he passed through a marmot colony
near the Orkhon river. In Mongolia.
The marmots dwell In holes In the
ground, much Ike the American
prairie dog does-or did. Doctor Os-
sendowsk says:
'.There were thousands Of holes
here, so that my Mongols had to use
all their skill to keep their horses
from breaking their legs in them. I
noticed an eagle circling high over
head. All Of a sudden he dropped
like stone to the top Of a marmot's
mound, where he sat motionless as a
rock. The marmot In a few minutes
ran out Of his hole to a neighbor's
doorway. The eagle calmly jumped
down from the top. and with one wing
closed the entrance to the hole. The
rodent heard the noise, turned back
and rushed to the attack, trying to
break through to his hole. The eagle
fought with one free wing. one leg and
his beak, but did not withdraw the
bar to the entrance. The marmot
jumped at the rapacious bird with
great boldness, but soon fell from q
blow on the head. Only then the
eagle withdrew his wing. approached
the marmot, finished him of, and with
difficulty, lifted him in his talons to
carry him away to the mountains for
tasty luncheon"
