The statement that the women who
make up the audiences at so-called
lisque PLAYS are more 10 blame for
such attractions than the men is al
solutely absurd and untrue. Don't The
men pay for the tickets used 10y the
women?
Men and women are much alike.
Good men and women belong in one
class. and those OF the underworld be-
long in different class and it is the
men and women OF the coarser class
that crowd the theater presenting the
most immoral play II is never a mat
ter OF sex. bat OF character which
knows no sex
So say that woman is the cause "
the clearly apparent downward course
OF our stage is 10 say that she is de-
teriorating IN tastes or morals That
will not admit In fact, strongly
deny IT, The world is getting better
every day. Women are profiting by
the sacrifices OF the generation which

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-Down at
the very toe of Manhattn the skele-
ton of what will be the tallest build
ing on the southern part of the
island has already raised it's bony
shoulders above the surrounding
skyscrapers, and ant-like workers
are daily exhibiting feats of dar-
ing for the benefit of the thousands
TO human insects that ply the lanes
below.
These intrepid structural iron
workers are nonchalantly con-
temptuouS of danger at 80 stories
as they are three. Any noon one
can see them perched in rows along
the Orders, looking from below all
The world like sparrows. They are
eating their lunches. They haven't
time to visit mother earth for food
at the noon hour.
Sometimes you see one sitting
carelessly on the very end of pro-
truding beam, his feet swinging idly
off the sides, open dinner bucket
wedged in between his knees. He
drops a crumb; it has sheer fall
of $50 feet before it spatters on the
pavement below.
If the day is warm he losses his
bucket to someone inside the huge
frame, and then, stretching himself
out along the beam for a pull at his
pipe, he stares into the blue depth
of the sky. His hand bangles lazily
over a terrifying abyss.
Presently the air whistle blows
and the men spring to their rivet-
ers. The heated bolts cut glowing
arcs as they are tossed from forge
to bucket. The men run up and
down the studded joists, leaping
over distractions as though they
were but stumbling blocks on the
wide ground. They teeter as they
balance their swaying bodies
against the gusts of wind, which u.s.
ually blows strongly at this height
If the wind is a gale they must
lean far out over the pavement be-
low to balance against its steady
force. If the wind suddenly drops
they recover their balance with an
effort.
Sometimes, when the cowboy OF
the air is in a hurry to get to the
ground he bothers not with ladders.
