in these words:
ResuTrected Forest
They were majestic trees,
simple in structure, resembling
closely the tree ferns of the pres
ent tropical jungles, but :'ingu-
larly enough an advance in struc-
ture over these tree ferns by vir-
tue Of their seed-bearing devices.
''The Gilboa forests grew along
the low shores of the western
Catskill mountain region, facing
the interior sea which at that
period covered all Central and
Western New York. They grew
in marshes or jungles along these
lowlands, which were easily
covered by the rise of tho tides.
THE atmosphere of these
coastal marshes must have been
dank and heavy, and the rays Of
the sun sifted down among them
only with softened light. Along
with these Gilboa trees, which
have now been given the name
of Eospermatopteris, grew a few
other plants, some simpler ferns
and a strange lycopodium tree
Protolepidodendron, or the Naples
tIAee, as it has come to be com.

Can a Woman FLAP" At Fifty?
CAN a woman flap a. fifty?
~ OF course she can-and
more power to her!
Some women are f1appers from
the cradle to the grave; they be-
gin by coquetting with their
grandfathers and end by vamping
their grandsons.
But yamping and coquetting
are the merest bi-products of real
serious Tapping. citing, smoking
and carrying a pocket-flask are
no more synonymous with flap
ping in the higher sense, than
snow is with Christmas. The
original flapper who did all those
things has passed out of the pic
ture along with the buns she
wore over her ears.
~
Flapping is simply being young
at heart and looking at life with
young eyes and new enthusiasms.
Flapping Is the rejuvenation Of
the spirit-the Fourth of July of
the soul!
II a woman of fifty has the
urge to flap, and has never be-
fore had a chance to flap-then
let her FLAP!
II bobbing her hair, bobbing
her skirts and making a cupid's
bow of her lips make her feel
Younger. more alive and more
pleased with herself-then let her
flap!

lust so long as the flapper OF
fifty does not delude herself with
the foolish notion that she Is
man-charmer and Ninon de

does not imagine that her dear
sweet, middle-aged heart and
emotions are being stirred to
youthful passion, or that her
beauty is what a young man
fancies when he is after her nus

flap!
Let her keep the muscles OF
her heart supple, her vanity alive
and glowing, and her enthusiasms
running on all six cylinders
lust so long as they are concen-
trated on something besides men
and the love-game.
Heaven knows, this world is full
of a number of wonderful things,
besides men. Leave all the senti-
mental self-delusions and heart
aches to the MALE-flappers OF
fifty. who don't know when their
petting-days are over!
Leave the men to the younger
women-and you can flap as hard
and as long and as violently as
YOU please without a shattered
illusion or a sprained vanity.
But once you enter the man
charming game on your second
wind, YOU are facing defeat and
self-disillusiOnment.
And nothing in this good old
