Much as the hair styles of Marcia Clarke became
the talk of the nation, when the Judge's daughter
wore rolled stocking to court one day, it became
a feature news story, and other women were
encouraged to "roll'em girls, roll'em."

They found themselves expected to settle down
into the humdrum routine of American life as if
nothing had happened, to accept the moral dicta
of elders who seemed to them still to be living
in a Pollyanna land of rosy ideals which the war
had killed for them. They couldn't do it, and
they very disrespectfully said so. G. Stanley
Hall, "Flapper Americana Novissima," Atlantic
Monthly 129 (June 1922) 771.

I was sure my girls had never experimented with a
hip-pocket flask, flirted with other women's
husbands, or smoked cigarettes. My wife
entertained the same smug delusion, and was
saying something like that out loud at the dinner
table one day. And then she began to talk about
other girls. W. O. Saunders, "Me and My Flapper
Daughters," The American Magazine 104 (Aug.
1927) 27.

Dreamed about a reefer 5 feet long mighty miff
but not too strong you'll be high but not for
long if you're a viper I am the king of
everything I've got to be high before i can sing
light a tea and let it be if you're a viper
then your throat gets dry you know you're high
everything is dandy truck on down to the corner
store bust your mouth on peppermint candy Then
you know your body's spent you dont care if you
dont pay rent sky's high and so am I if you're
a viper.

Jazz is a worse evil than the saloon used to be.
Those moaning saxophones and the rest of the
instruments with their broken, jerky rhythm make
a purely sensual appeal. All of us dancing
teachers know this to be a fact. . . . The music
written for jazz is the very foundation and
essence of salacious dancing. The words also are
often very suggestive, thinly veiling immoral
ideas.

An official, but non-binding, federal referendum
was held in 1898 on prohibition, receiving 51.3
for and 48.7 against prohibition on a voter
turnout of 44. Prohibition had a majority in all
provinces except Quebec, where a strong 81.10
voted against it 1. Despite this electoral
majority, Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier's
government chose not to introduce a federal bill
on prohibition in Parliament, mindful of the
strong antipathy in Quebec. As a result, Canadian
prohibition was instead enacted through laws
passed by the provinces during the first twenty
years of the 20th century. Prince Edward Island
was the first to bring in prohibition in 1900.
Alberta and Ontario passed prohibition laws in
1916. Quebec passed legislation in 1918 that
would have prohibited alcohol from 1919 until the
end of World War I. However, since the war ended
in 1918, prohibition was never implemented in the
province. The provinces then repealed their
prohibition laws, mostly during the 1920s. Quebec
was the first to repeal in 1920, making it the
province enforcing prohibition for the shortest
period of time Prince Edward Island was last to
repeal in 1948. Alberta repealed in 1924, along
with Saskatchewan, upon realizing that the laws
were unenforceable. Realizing that they could not
stop people from drinking entirely, temperance
advocates successfully pressured all provincial
and territorial governments to curtail the sale
of liquor as much as possible through the tight
control of liquor control boards. Nevertheless,
some communities, such as the city of Owen Sound,
Ontario, continued to outlaw liquid well into the
1970s. (Wikipedia)
