FLAPPERS OF
PIONEER DAYS
Hid Their EARS
Fiappers Who Lived in Mexico
Ten Thousand Years Ago
Concealed Ears

TUCSON, Ariz., Nov. 24.-Pre-
historic flappers who lived in Mexi-
co about 10000 years ago used the
same care in concealing their ears
that the fair senoritas do today.
The sheiks of that period were
more worried about their leg line
than they were about their waist
measurement.
These are two prehistoric fashion
notes discovered by Dean Byron
Cummings, professor of archaeology
at the University of Arizona, in his
excavations in the pyramid of Cut
cuilco, IL miles south of Mexico
City.
The flappers of the ancient day
instead of concealing their ears un-
der the now prevalent barrage of
hair used large disc-like ear plugs
made of an American variety of jade
The sheiks of that time corded their
thighs to give themselves a handy
legged effect that apparently was all
the rage.

on his hand which required the at
tention of a physician.
Master Billy Owen was the most
seriously injured of the party, suf-
fering a laceration on the forehead
wheich required a stitch by the sur

pants were extremely fortunate to
escape more serious injury and pos
sible fatalities.
The accident occurred at about 2.30

was driving toward Pennington. The
car was an Overland sedan and ac-
cording to members of the party, an
automobile coming from the opposite
direction crowded over onto their
side of the highway, forcing Mr..
