1T was a happy time, Margie,"
said Paula, Ito get away from the vi
tiated atmosphere of The One He
Chose into the real, clean realm OF
thought in which Alma and Tom
lived Both these young people were
rather sophisticated, using the word
in the sense of one who knows, but
the sights and sOrdidness that their
profession brought to their eyes
seemed only to emphasize the whole
some way they looked upon life.
''MaTgie, have heard much about
communicating the young through
the sO-caIled realistic writings and
plays, and l have come to the con-
clusiOn that no young person was
ever made any the worse by seeing
such pictures of life and hardships as
are set forth in many Of our realistic
plays. The average young mind does
not understand half the illusions
that sometimes make the underCUr-
rent Of these plays distasteful to the
more mature.
TO me today after l have passed
through many experiences which
have completely opened the blind
eyes of girlhOOd, I think the most in
sidious of all temptations is the COW
ering of alluring romance which
modern writer's and dramatists throw
around reality.
1.-The musical comedy with its
gliding of the most vicious of vices
is to me a most horrible example Of
this, and the young man or woman
who frequents such shows cannot re-
main pure-minded. This may sound
pTudish, Margie, but l want to tell
you I would gladly take my girl to
see Mrs. Warren's Profession or
The Easiest Way but I would hate
to have my daughter see one Of the
so-caIled pretty girl shows that have
been current on Broadway for the
last few years.

senses from that which means de-
cency of demeanor and purity of
mind.
q found both these with Alma and
Tom and l have thanked the good
God every day of my life that they
were thrown early in my path. They
were both much surprised when l
told them 1 was going to leave the
stage.
I would not do it if I were you,
Paula said Tom. There are many
reasons why a woman who must
earn her bread should adopt that
profession. In the first place, it takes
you into the realm of art; you are
able to do creative work, and where
you create you become one with God.
Secondly, the actors profession
is the only one in which women are
paid more than men for the same
work. If you succeed you win the
plaudits of the world while you are
alive, something few other artists
do. My dear Paula, the sOrdid phase
of the work which you have just
passed through may come to you or.
any other girl in any other work that
takes her where she must associate
with the other sex.
Please do not let me give you
the idea that men are all raging
beasts, going about seeking whom
they may devouT, for they are not.
There are plenty good men, splendid
men, in this world, but there is al
ways a sprinkling of cads in, every
walk of life - enough to make the
path of a girl who must work beside
them anything but bed Of roses.
8" Personally, I think the members
of the newspaper profession the
cIeanest of all men as a class, but
you have only to ask Alma for some
