broken moth girl on the pavement
and they drove swiftly away, leaving
the moths to their fate.
And just as the moth that dropped

girl who was bruised is Just one of the
many moth girls who have paid
price for their folly.
Yet these girls do not seem to gain
wisdom any more than do the little
miller-moths.
Surely it would seem that even the
silliest girl would realize that men
do not invite girls to ride in automo-
biles without intending to exact a
price.
1t was girls life not long since
and it has been several other girls
lives, but the exacting of life seems a
lesser price to pay than the girls who
have been dishonored and left lying
out on lonely road until some
passer-by discovered them and took
them, forever smirched, back to their
homes.
These men who have automobiles
could not have honorable motive in
asking a girl they do not know to
ride with them, and the girl would
realize this if she would but think.
They have friends of their own,
wide circle of friends usually, but the
girls they know they must respect,
and the girls they do not know and
who do not know them, they may
ravish as the price of few hours of
amusement, and then go out of their
lives and escape detection.

BY Jane Whitaker.

A little moth flew in through the
window and circled the room coquet-
tishly as though to show me that it
hadn't the least intention Of going
near the bright light and singing its
wings. But ever narrower grew the
circles, ever closer it swept toward
the flame, until there.was little hiss
and the moth dropped to the floor,
dead.
And the other night two little moth
girls, with bright eyes and smiling lips
and all the vanity of youth in their
hearts stepped out of a nickel show
and saw the flame standing at the
cub, big touring car with two fash
lily dressed men and another man and
woman sitting in it.
And coquettishly the two girl
moths looked at the fame. They
hadn't the least intention of going
near it and singing their wings, but
ever they drew closer, listened to the
invitation of the men that they take
a ride; played with the temptation
and then yielded to it, and 10, the
flames scorched the moths.
For the woman and the man who
lent the tone of responsibility to the
party were only decoys. They left
the fame and the two moth girls and
the car flashed on through the night.
Ever faster it went and the f1ashily
dressed men laughed boisterously
and paid no heed to the two little
frightened moth girls, who realized
they had flown too close to the flame
and wanted to get away from it, and
beat their wings in fear.
And then one of the moth girls
jumped; jumped while that car was
going thirty miles an hour, not to-
ward their homes, but out toward
the loneliness of the country. And
the moth girl was bruised; one arm
was broken, her face. was dis1gured.
