I started to read this piece from the August 3, 1922 Charlottetown Guardian thinking it would be one of many that tut-tut about young fellows racing automobiles through city streets and being a general menace, but this tale of two gals from Boston is about a different procession entirely. The tut-tutting from the city’s great and good about these two racy ladies would have been more deafening than any automobile.

I know basically nothing about fashion, current or historical, but I think the ”dutch clip” could be describing their short hair style, as in the illustration below, but let me know if I’m wrong. Flappers gonna flap, but not in Charlottetown.
