About those flappers...
Hey, I AM a flapper
Out on the town
Death of the flapper
Oh, I get it!

And Eva says...
Those girls! They have "little respect for parents and superiors in many of our homes and schools and churches. There is an ominous absense of reverence for things sacred, of noble ambition and earnest moral purpose, and a bold and brazen defiance of decency and modesty in dress and speech and conduct.
Women paint and powder and drink and smoke, and become an easy prey to a certain class of well-groomed and well-fed high-livers, whose chief business is to 'pluck the blush of innocency from off the cheek of maidenhood and put a blister there!'"
