Modern Morals
Are Attacked

Manchester, Eng, Dec. IA
picture Of modern social conditions
which surpasses even the revela-
tions OF restricted set which has
come into prominence in Los An
geles was painted by the Bishop
OF Guildford in an address before
the church congress here. K
rThe crumbling of public NOR
ais, unless arrested, means the
death knell Of the nation he
declared.
Husbands and wives have ac-
quired the habit of infidelity. and
promiscuity is rife among the un-
married OF all classes
"The standard of practical NOR
ality among women has steadily
deterIorated since the Malthusian
nampaign started As years ago and
the only sin was that Of being
found out.
"The emancipation Of women
movement has also to be consid-
cred In this matter. What can the
right to motherhood mean, but
the right to indulge in extra-mat-
rimonial social relations without
reprobation.'
The president of the congress,
the Bishop Of Birmingham, dis
agreed with the thesis, declaring
that "our great cities are on the
whole purer and better places than
when l was young.

Coming to the
Liberty Theatre

Rex. the mental wizard, with a
company of five people will open
an engagement of seven days at
the Liberty Theatre starting
Sunday, December 1S.
Rex, as a Hindu seer and crystal
gazer presents twentieth century
mystery and will conduct a series
of scientific and battling expert
ments in mental telepathy and
through transference. He will an
swer questions on love and mar
riage and give advice on financial
and business matters. These ques-
tions may be submitted to him in
writing by members Of the audi
ence and will be answered after
they have been placed on table
before the eyes of those who have
written them.
The act is deliberately staged and
costumed.
Rex is said to be far above the
ordinary run of socalled mind
reading acts in that he has
placed his work on scientific
basis. He does not claim to do
anything supernatural, but, has
by years of constant study and
application to the subject, brought
himself to a point of mental un-
derstanding, where, through the
application of the highest prin-
ciples OF thought reading, he is
able to read questions which he
has never seen and give correct
answers He invites those who are
skeptical to witness his perform
ance. He does not ask anyone tc
believe in him until after they
have witnessed his work. He does
not answer foolish questions but
any sensible question or problem
which offers a possible solution he
will gladly apply himself to and
4 answer from the stage.
His act is clean, scientific, en-
tertaining and furnishes food fol
thought for those who may mo-
believe in the principles of menta
telepathy. He does not seek t.
get humor out of humiliatint
those who may submit question
but guarantees courteous hear
ing to all those who may favo
him with their presence.

Modern Girl
Good Pal Says
Playwright
By Leo 7. Heatley.

And so We'll hear them
Ger and Ger
The generation gone before
Our modern decadence deplore!
New York, Dec. 14.-!The mod
ern girl stands acquitted.
No less an authority than Rach-
ell Crothers, playwright and au-
thor, extends her a clean bill of
health as a person of good sense,
a bully pal and the very highest
type Of femininity.
The modern girl, according to
Miss Crothers, is far superior, in
every feminine attribute, to her
sisters of bygone days. lIer advice
to the girl of today is uphold the
best standards of 1921 young wo-
manhood if you would be popu-
lar" While she does not give
her unqualified approval to the
"flapper," this eminent woman
author includes this much abused
young girl in her general desig-
nation of the modern girl.
THE girl of today deserves the
center of the stage from the
standpoint of botn progress ana
human interest" said Miss Croth-
ers. "She is so honest, SO sensi-
BILE, so sane, and she understands
what you are talking about. She
has valuable opinions of her own
on important subjects. If she does
not understand you can explain,
and she will grasp your meaning
with certainty and speed.
There were so many things the
fashioned girl did not dare
fathom. Nicely forbade her be-
ing human. She missed that beau
tiful freedom Of living and of ex-
pression-the characteristic charm
of the girl of today. There is
nothing quite as magnetic as nat
uralness in girl.
Nine times out of ten the nat
ural young girl is abundantly pop
ular. The tenth time happens to
be misfit, in which the unhappy
possessor of splendid courage OF
self-expression Is handicapped by
wrong instinct. Propensity fol-
doing and saying the wrong thing
in an obvious way is an inherit
ance with some of us.
i "There are happier birthrights
however. For example, tha'
strange intangible, yet very rea
something which we call persona
magnetism is positively innate. W.
either have it or we do not. l
can never be acquired in the seed
though possession of the seed Of
admits of propagation. We cal
become more magnetic by exercis
ing and developing our gift.
"The old-fashioned girl had thi
birthright of magnetism. Their
