When a girl is old enough to go
to the theater, she is old enough TO
begin TO know about those laws both
moral and social which will exert the
greatest governing power upon her
own happiness. This knowledge will
In no way smirch the purity of her
mind or heart; rather it will help her
to distinguish good from evil.
Just why ii is right TO talk Of vice
from the pulpit and not from the
stage is one of the questions that
never has been answered: and with
our daily papers filled with all sorts
OF sensational articles, in which moth
ing is concealed, Is II not preposterous
TO think that our girls to be pure
must lack knowledge OF evilo
The plays our daughters should
not see are the plays none of us
should see The plays that make light
of marital infidelity and joke about
deception, the plays that are lastci-
vious In their appeal, that clothe vice
in allurement and hypocrisy in smiles
are not proper plays for any right
thinking person to see
The whole trouble with this idea
about the domination OF the theater
by the young girl is not so much in
the minds OF the girls themselves as
1t Is the erroneous notions OF their
elders as TO what young girl should
know. The best thinkers Of today,
both men and women, say that the
young girl should be taught the
truth about life. Prejudice and mock
modesty must not be allowed to bind
her mind in ignorance and perhaps at
last break her heart.

OF Interest to Women


heard number OF women talking
the other day OF "Hindle Wakes, 3"
that wonderful English play which
has caused so much discussion in this
country.
Said one woman Il would not have
Julia see this play for the world
am so glad that | saw il first, SO |
can keen her from coming"
| cannot understand why any girl
who Is old enough 10 go out in So
ciety and is Of manageable age
should not see "Hindle Wakes" 1t
Is great play and tells a most NOV
ing story.
Foreigners claim that the DONNA
ton OF art and society by the young
girl in this country is a great draw
back 10 the highest culture. The pep
pie OF older countries seem TO forget
that America Is SO young herself that
she is apt TO give an undue prom.
inence TO the enthusiasms and opin.
ions of youth.
However. We are steadily out
growing this immaturity and, as a
natural consequence, are approaching
proper values in the art OF living.
For many years our literature and
our drama have been written wholly
with reference 10 the young girl.
When one spoke of a play the first
question asked by some anxious
would be, lis II the kind OF play to
which YOU would take your innocent
daughter" Our dramatists had this
question hurled at them from all cor
ners; consequently their greatest ef
forts seem 10 have been the CLOSING
over or skirting around the real
problems OF life, the knowledge OF
which would affect the innocence OF
the young girl.
Any question can be discussed In q
drama. provided it be done properly
When a woman has learned that ii is
manner, not matter, which is vulgar,
she will have progressed materially
toward the higher plane.
A few years ago, at lecture given
before the congregation Of prom
inent Methodist church, womaN
friend of mine was called upon to
tell the story of The Hypocrites,"'
the wonderfully clever play of Arthur
Henry Jones, which was so popular
at the time 1t will be remembered
that the drama was built around the
hypocritical conduct of d number OF
persons when the sin which they had
condemned roundly in others was
brought home 10 themselves. The

money enough 10 realize their every
wish. But the Baldwin millions have
brought nothing but law suits and un-
happiness.
The last happening in the long list
Of unhappiness occasioned by the mil
lions of the dead turfman is the com
ing divorce of Mrs. Hull McClaughry,
daughter OF Baldwin.
The Baldwin millions accomplished
the wreck OF the McClaughry home.
The McClaughrys were happy until
they came into possession Of the &c.
100000 heritage from the Baldwin
estate. Then the trouble began.

FREEDOM ASKEDFOR MORGAN
PRISON BOARD HEARS ARGU-
MENT ON PARDON PETITION.

With HarrelI Is Serving a Sentence
of Twenty Years for Burning Town
of Preston IL Years Ago.
The application for pardon for
Henry B. Morgan, who, with cous-
in named Harrell, burned the town
OF Preston and Las served ten years
of a sentence of twenty years, was
heard by the prison commission on
Thursday.
Hon. j. L. Horne of Preston, Rep
resentative D. G. Pickett of Dawson,
Senator G.. Y. Harrell of Lumpkin,
and Hon. F. A. Hooper, who was So
licitor general and prosecuted the
case, appeared before the commission
and urged clemency. Judge q. A.
Littleiohn, who presided at the trial,
sent a statement to the commission
in which he said the ends of justice
had been met in Morgan's case, and
a petition was presented bearing the
signatures of a large number of cit
liens of Preston and Webster county,
including those whose property was
burned.
The prison board now has the APP
plication under consideration, and
will probably pass upon it at their
August meeting.
Morgan and Harrell have large
and prominent family connections
throughout this section. They are
now in camps in the lower section
of the state. The former was per-
mitted by Governor Brown to come
home some time ago to see a son
who was badly hurt by tree falling
