Had she in her early days displayed some of the characteristics uf her younger sisters, she probably would now live nearer the house, if not sleep and eat right under the same roof with us. Although her quarters are somewhat removed from ours, nevertheless she is very near and dear to us. NYith her rattle brains and iron constitution, Lizzie is nothing less than a full fledged V723 flapper. l say this because she covers her natural complexion with powder and paint, and dresses just within the bounds of the law. Some days she goes very thinly clad above the waist line and is very careless about protecting herself from the weather. This carelessness has undermined her iron constitution so that she is far from being a perfect specimen. Recently she had a stroke of apoplexy and was almost run over before we could get her off the street. llut that is not the worst: she has developed palpitation and leakage of the heart and some- times has terrible coughing spells accompanied with spitting of blood. Our family physician says that she needs a stimulant during' the cold weather and prescribes alcohol regardless of the Yolstead Act. This stimulant with pep tablets taken in water. gives temporary relief, but she is such a nervous little thing and constantly treinbles so that we some times fear that she may have St. Yitus Dance. Some of her ailments are the result of parental neglect in baby-hood. Coming from a large family. she was naturally poorly dressed and soon had to shift for herself. Undue exposure and a poor circula- tory system have resulted in a ball complexion. Her skin peels off easily and she frequently has boils. Her eyes grow dim for lack of tears. and it is neces- sary for her to wear heavy glasses. She could hardly survive if it were not for our constant oversight and the doctor's care. It takes lots of money to feed and care for her, but nevertheless she is our darling daughter. Her physical ailments are not her only defects. Vtihile not exactly im- moral, she sometimes does not know how to act in good society. The first of last week as we were going down town to a show, she cut quite a caper. XVe were hurrying past a large garage when all at once she spied a lot uf well dressed males. Among them were lflill Packard. Harry Stutz, 'lim Cadillac. and Dodge brothers. They sure tooli her eye and she began at once to show her flapper tendencies by trying to flirt with them. ln her excite- ment she hissed and stnttered while the powder and paint from her over- heated face became plainly visible. She dropped her vanity case, and her inflated heels lowered as she shimmied among them in great confusion. Her friends stood like petrified oaks as she shook her bobbed and irregular mohair in their faces. Finally I got her by, but dared not reprove her for fear of irritating Ft IRT Y-THREE
