FAR-OFF TOMORROW
THUSE bappy-go-lucky individuals
4 who munifest so little interest in
the #tiriing events of life, which are
pbuzzing like bees all around them, are
often insensible to their lamentable de;
linquencies.
Occasionally, however, their con
sciousness flutters a moment, but,
secmingly changing its benumbed
mind, yawns, nods and falls asleep to
dream.
But they are going to wake up and
do something tomorrow.
They will yank the old world from
its easy chair and wake its billion in
habitants with an earthquake.
Hitherto they have been shaping a
briliiant course, not quite matured yet,
or in a fit state to be presented in its
entirety to their intimates, who have
wept over them, prayed for them, and
done their utmost to arouse them to
action,
There is, however, no declaration on
the part of these habituated drones of
making undue haste.
The months and years stretch ahead
in long rows on either side of tomor
row's path. Why fuss, fluster -and
worry?
Why should they bother themselves
while youth is so full of delightful ex
pectancies and time so abundant.
They are not seeking the dull, com
mon roads in life, but the magnificent
avenues that take direct to fame and
wealth in the glare of sunlight and
amid the plaudits of an admiring
world, swept suddenly off its feet by
the daring work of genius.
So the years drift by, and in their
drifting there comes sometimes to
these disciples of the god of futurists
a petrifying fear that makes them sick
at heart.
With an odd mixture of humility and
pride stirring in their ill-arranged
brain they are prompted to exertion.
But they have unconsciously lost the
skill which was theirs when life was
vibrant with power. They reach out
but they touch not. And now, all of
a sudden, a terrible realization over
whelms them.
While they were loitering, putting
off until tomorrow, their plodding as
sociates. were improving - their time,
gaining respect and an assured com
petence for the hare days of winter,
sighting it§ appearance in the naked
branches of the trees and drifts of
snow-flakes.
Tomorrow is man’s most terrible
trouble ~maker, luring by promises
which are seldom redeemed and leav
ing him ragged and alone at the cross
roads, where youth and opportunity
lie buried in the piled up heaps of
dust and ill-spent years, o

FLAP! FLAP! FLAP!
e
By DORRIS CAMPBELL
(®, 1922, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate,)
Anna, serious, auburn-haired, is the
middle one of the trio—midway 1n
complexion, age and height between
Gertrude, their brunette leader, and the
petite and very blonde Ruth,
When Gert~blew herself to a tweed
suit, Nan and Ruth did likewise,
“So when Gert bobbed her hair, in
vested In some low-heeled, broad
strapped pumps, a walking stick and
clgarette case, Nan and Ruth followed
sult as a matter of course,
Flap! Flap! Flap!
Belleville was scandalized, “Bold”
and “shameless” were about the mild
est words used to describe them, Were
their folks crazy to let them carry on
$0? N-0, no one had actually seen
them smoking. But of course they did.
And Ruth had slipped on a banans
skin, and when she fell you could see,
with only one eye, that her stockings
didn’t cover up her knees!!! Scan
dalous, that’s what! :
Flap! Flap!! Flap!!
But more about that banana skin—a
most important item. The girls had
started for a dressmaker’s, on the out ]
skirts of the town, but Ruth got sucl
a bang when she fell 3hat she decidec
to sit in the park and wait for them
80 over she hobbled to a seat nearls{
hidden by shrubbery, after buying s
magazine, |
Larry had begged Girt that mornin; |
to. meet him in the park that atter'
noon, to hear something important '
But Gert was a tease, and she only
laughed and said not to expect her
till he saw her, Larry was really serl
ous, and though he had no idea of be
ing fortunate enough to find her, he
walked through the park.
Sauuntering along gloomily, he saw 8
flash of green that nature never pro .
duced. Moving closer, he saw, througl'l
the slats in the back of the beneh, 8
pert green dress, rufling and billow:
ing over the seat. The wearer war
almost hidden by a monstrous ané
drooping hat. |
“She came!” he exulted, his heart
pounding furiously with joy. “She does
care, after all,”.
Silently he approached the seat;
leaning over till it seemed he would
lose his balance, and land in her lap,
he boldly embraced and kissed her.
Slap! Slap!! S—“Oh, Larry!!} It’s
only you!” with relief. “But what do
you mean by kissing me?” |
“Ruthie! I thought it was Gert. ]
asked her to meet me here today. She
didn’t say she would, but I thoughi
she had come—and it's only you!”
Ruth had to laugh in spite of the real
tragedy in his forlorn face. |
“You really do care a great deal for
Gert, don’t you? Tell me about it
Larry.” Misery loves company, and
Larry spilled his woes. |
“What will you give me if Gert be
comes engaged to you within a
month?”’
“Anything you like!” =
“Chocolates, then. And I shall se-!
lect the biggest box in town.” |
“The biggest and best, fßuthie—hali
a dozen of 'em—but, how'll you work
it
“Leave it to me., You don’t know
Ruthie like I do! Ruthie’s got brains 1
even if she doesn’t look it! Seriously
it looks very simple, Larry—only—l'll
have to tell Nan, and perhaps one 01
two others.”
It all hinged, Ruth figured, on
‘Gert’s being a born leader. As truly
as she loved Nan and Ruth, she likec
to be first, but_she wanted them tc
follow. Nan agreed that Ruth’s plar
would be ridiculously easy. ;
With the aid of Nan’s cousin Dick '
who had always thought Ruthie pret
ty nice, and his friend, Bob, who was
quite delighted to “beau” Nan around,
there came a change, subtle at first
then most pronounced. Nan and Ruth
mentioned Bob and Dick more and
more often before Gert, at first ridi
culing their invitations, then admit
ting their attractive qualities, unti!
finally Gert, assured that it would not
be long before she would be practl
cally deserted for the two men, passed.
from uneasiness to decision. |
“Pll just have to beat%hem to it,”
she determined, and to Larry’s great
joy, accepted his invitation to the .
Tourth of July celebration and dance.
Then she accepted other ones, also
books and candy, and wonder of won-.
ders! invited him to supper one Sun
day. When Larry went home thatl
night he left a kiss on Gert's lips—
and a ring on her finger. |
“Three weeks,” he murmured admir
ingly. “Gosh, Ruth is sure some girl!"
It wasn't long before Nan, and
Ruth, too, were engaged, and that fall
there was a triple wedding. |
They kept their becoming bobbed
hair, but the walking sticks were dis
carded, to Belleville’s satisfaction, and
the cigarette cases were attached to
masculine watch chains. And there
were confessions—terrible ones, which
would have horrified Belleville.
“We tried to smoke,” shyly, “once.
Gee! but weren't we il1?” There were
deep masculine chuckles, perhaps at
remembering personal experiences,
perhaps not,
“And we tried to learn to s-s-swear—
real casually, you know, just for fun.
But the most we could manage with
out feeling wicked was ‘darnl’”’
“Haw! haw!" exploded the cruel
husbands. “Some flappers!”
