FLAGSTAFF TRAP MEN
AT WILLIAMS SUNDAY

On Sunday Flagstaff Gun club
members notsred to Williams and at
tended chicken shoot Feathered
chickens they were, too. The bows
were SO confident that they took

the birds, and, by gosh, they got 'em.
A new system of shooting was in
troduced If one shooter missed a
blue rock, the next man in line could
shoot it and add the bird to his score
provided he broke it. This made sew

Ny dear Miss Marshall:
There WILL be sequel to THE F1apper Wife"
Let me say that most emphatically in answer to
your letter Of inquiry.
have had growing conviction that there should
be sequel. This conviction has grown with almost
every ma-with every letter from your friends and
my friends nquiring about, nay insisting upon a
sequel. Even the sanctty Of my home has not been
nviolate. The feminine members of my household
have besieged me.
Miss Beatrice Burton who wrote "The Flapper
Wife," has informed me that the sequel is ready. AS
you suggest, it is not about Gloria Gregory. 1t is
about the very person you inquired about, May Sey-
mour, whose husband killed himself.
The scenes will be laid largely in Seattle The
title will be "Footloose" rather like the title Foot
loose" is aurng. To me it suggests freedom, vaga-
bondage-Seaside where I'd like to be right now
am sure that you and all other readers of The
