FOR A CLEANER STAGE

The management of the United Booking Officers has
decided to bar from the vaudeville houses of the country
hereafter persons who have gained notorety in criminal
cases.
1t is not to be assumed that the motive back of this
decision is moral purely 1t is simply practical
recognition of public disgust with the methods that have
so long prevailed.
Any accused murderess if the charges against her
were especially arocOus and widely published, and any
particularly salacous Divorce of offers to go
upon the stage. No other qualifications were required.
long list of women might be given who have gone upon
the stage with nothing else to commend them than that
they were disgracefuly notorious
1t was an insult to public intelligence and decency of
In seeking the of the decline Of the stage
this custom cannot be overlooked
This action of the United Booking Offices was taken
because of the announcement of Mrs. Caman that she
would entertain an offer to appear theater Mrs Car
was tried on charge of murder and was acquitted
Because Of the notOety that to her from her trial
she thought she would be fine theatrical asset
But what she do that would entertain patrons of
the payhouses? She cannot amuse audience can
she entertain instruct Perhaps there might be-
curiosity to her. but for this purpose she would
be better in a freak museum than on the stage
1t is pity that the theatrical managers did not come
to such decision long ago. instead of Haunting dsrepute
in the face Of the public until the public will longer
stand for it.

TALKS ON THRIFT
Vacant Lot Gardening.

Economy is no disgrace; it is bet
ter living on little than OUTLYING a
great deal. Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Owing to the rolling nature of the
surface in the upper part of the Bor.
ough of Manhattan, New York City,
there are places where the Broadway
Subway" is really an Elevated "
and one must ride in an escalator to
reach the station platform.
From the vantage point of one of
these elevated subway stations can be
seen another apparent contradiction in
terms-a garden plot in the great city.
There, in a triangular piece Of ground
formed by the coming together Of three
streets, is little house and garden en-
tirely shut out from passers.by in the
streets by high billboards enclosing the
place on all three sides.
For both economical and esthetic reas,
ons, there ought to be many more such
garden spots in New Yofk and every
other city.
1t is estimated that $4,000 was real.
lied from the crops raised on vacant
lots within the city of Philadelphia last
year.
There are few cities in the United
States that cover the immense area that
Philadelphia does, but there are none
without some vacant land that could be
and should be used for similar pur.
pose,
Even the biggest and most crowded
cities, like New York and Chicago,
there is considerable acreage of land
not under cultivation,
And kitchen" gardens have become
a reality in Chicago. Mrs. Leonora z.
Meder, commissioner of public welfare,
opened fiveacrc tract at East One
Hundred and Tenth street and Indiana
avenue and thirty-acre tract at East
One Hundred and 7 sentysixth street
and Indiana avenue few weeks ago.
Fifty men were awarded plots in the
five-acre area and in the larger tract
sixty men and their families will till
the soil.
"rhe unemployed are given first
choice" Ms. Medcr said. each man
is given enough land to cultivate SO
as to afford him means of livelihood.
The department Of public welfare has
also been promised other land in diff,
terent parts Of the city and this will
be turned over to the public" "
A similar movement has been started
IN Seattle, Cleveland, st. Paul and other
cities.
