Mary Ryan. who plays the lead of the
llght-hngered maid in stop Thief" Is
never tired of advising young girls who
are stage struck to consider the matter
long and carefully before seeking thea
trical engagement. Regarding tho moral
influence of the stage upon those who
depend upon it for living. Miss Ryan
says:
1T is true that temptations and bad
influences may surround girl who earns
n living. and in this work day world she
is to be found In every field; but 1t can
not be denied that in the theatrical pro-
fession there is a necessitated intimacy
and narrow and confined acquaintance
ship that are not only frequently unpleas-
ant. but In the case OF the young and
unsophlsticated girl may easily become
dangerous
In my estimation the moral danger of
the stage does not arrive so much from
It's gayety as from its loneliness. On the
long jaunts that have to be taken from
one city to another. the Latural dlsposl-
ton Is to make friendships, often for the
consolation and advice that can be had
only from those whom we call our
friends. But 1t takes a strong mind some
times to know just where to place the
bar-to see that the line of safety Is
closely drawn and carefully maintained.
II girls are not led into mistaken friend
ships and are not Influenced by bad ad-
visers their course is clear But the situa-
tton Is serious and should not be courted
without careful consideration"
A Play Right From Life
Besides being one of these once-in-a-
lifetime instances where a play, COM
plete and dramatic. can be lifted directly
from real life-for the drama is produced
without an iota of change-the story of
how the forthcoming Edison Judge Not"
came into being as a play Is as interesting
as the drama itself Director Charles
Brabiu best tells it in his own words:
II doubt II ever saw an actor who had
such control of his emotional powers as
Charles Ogle who could stop in the very
height of strong scene and in the most
prosaic way ask whether perhaps, Am

said one day. Good Lord, Charlie did
you ever cry In your life?' Yes. once
was all he said and then he told me the
story that so affected him. It was the
simple, powerful story OF a sweet simple
village girl who was lured away. Charlie
Ogle's father was the minister that
brought her back to her mothers home
and to her tragic death, It developed later.
"The story so effected me that I was
one day telling II at the Republican Club,

Mr.. Oppenheim asked me whether he
could write It. The editor OF the Metro

departure from the usual pleasant ending

THE appended story, taken from

date may or may not be true. but
that is not the point to deal with. 1t
Is published simply to indicate the i'm
pression-wrong in almost every de-
tal-that outsiders have of Nevada
and Reno in particular. 1t is as fol-
lows:
Nevada is now the only state in the
union in which one may apply for a di-
vorce after a six months residence.
A lot of women from the east are
there now. killing two birds with one
scne-that is establishing a residence
in Reno and visiting the fair in San
Francisco.
Though the new order of things is
less than two months old there Is q
divorce colony of at least 40U and new
arrivals are coming in every day.
writes an eastern visitor to his home
paper. 1T won't be very long before
the divorce colony will be as large as
it was four years ago
There are w judges now to try
cases and they have speeded up mat
tiers so that 1t is possible-at least,
sc l am told-to arrive in Reno, es-
tablish a residence, file a petition for
divorce and have it granted in less
than seven months. And as "incom-
patibility" is thoroughly recognized as
a just cause for divorce the obstacles
in the path of FRI edom seem very few.
but what impressed me was the
boom which has been caused by the
r%eopening of the divorce mill. A de-
partment store which closed when the
adverse legislation was passed has re-
opened and everyone in business
seems to feel that a new era Of pros,
perity has begun. There is no doubt
that 1t is n great thing for the town.
