The STORY Of NINETTE
Bill RILEY NJ AYRES

greeted him with a blank stare and the
amazed exclamation:
Hanged If | know"
'Ninette was quite herself again in a
few moments and the eyes she lifted to
the Doctors were so radiant that he be-
gan to wonder if he had been mistaken
about Delay after all
Perhaps she's in love with him and
has just found it out" he ruminated, as
he made his way back down stairs.
But Ninette, though she had indeed
found once more the man she loved, had
no Illusions about it being Arthur Delay.
Indeed, she at once went about getting
rid of him.
Il know that I shall be able to earn
the money that / owe you" she told
him. and you may be sure that I'll send
1t to you just as soon as ever l can.
But you must go now-and please don't
come to see ne any more"
He pleaded with her in vain, but Nj
nette's mind was made up. The knowI-
edge that she was free to love Peter
Nothard gave her new strength, and now
her will to live was strong as had been
The desire to die
But even with this new incentive to
help her, finding work was as hard as
ever. As soon as she was well she be
gan again a tour Of various employment
agencies. and Of shops whose advertise
ments had appeared in the newspapers
But the story was the same as 1t had
been before; the place had always just
been filed by some one with more ex-
pirlence than she had had or with good
references, or with both. And Ninette
would turn hopelessly away and trudge
on down the long streets, wondering why
1t was that in all the world there seemed
to be no place for her.
At last she decided to pawn the few
trinkets which josh Wheeler had given
her, and to which she had chung, even
In the direst extremity There were not
many of them. and their value was not
great, but they would at least serve to
keep the wolf from the door.
She had never been to a pawnshop be
fore and felt bit timid now about en-
tering one alone
'l cure a silly thing" she told herself.
disgustedly Nobody cares where you
go or what you do: why should you
mind going TO pawnshop? And as for
hating to part with these little keep
sakes-now happy it would make Josh
If he thought they were being a help :"
And SO she res0lutely crossed the street
and went over to a shop above the door
Of which dangled three gilt balls She
had reached out her hand 10 grasp the
door knob when a masculine voice at
her elbow cried "Ninette."
And, turning. she saw Peter Nothard

you back every penny that you have

my life to do so. Will you go now,

eyes were on level with hers. Cant

"Is Peter rich?" asked NInette Ian
guidly, more to change a disagreeable
subject than because she wanted to
know.
"Oh, yes, Peter has tons Of coin, but
he spends so little that nobody would
ever think it," Delay answered careless
ly. "If Dorothy Manvers had lived she d
have made him spend it fast enough"
For a moment Ninette lay perfectly
still, hardly daring to breathe. She won

The Aud.city of RootIessers

The surprising >audacity liquor thieves who steal for their consumption or who steal for bootegging enterprises is phase of crime in this country Many men take part in such thefts who probably had stolen anything else And perhaps of them actually figure that the theft of liquor is crime and considering the state of large section of public opinion, the liquor through bootleggers is offense against society," the laws to the contrary notwithstanding.
 It Is not difficult for to that point of view when he finds respectable business men of doubted morality willing transact business with bootleggers.
 The bootlegging industry naturally attracted to it persons of criminal antecedents and it also at tracted hundreds who had had no criminal experi- ence- But it did not take them long to become abandoned criminals willing commit homi- eide in pursuit of their enterprises.
 The courts have made matters worse by uncon- sciousy, in most cases, believe, reflecting the lenient attitude of public opinion toward the boot legger The courts seem rule to have recog- nized this crime rapidly assuming the most gigantic and dangerous proportions one that to be held in check, must be dealt with vigorously
 Notwithstanding the activity of the prohibition enforcement agents as well that sheriffs, we cannot say that the slightest check has been put upon this crime On the contrary it has grown and we have no reason to believe until severer measures are taken, that it will cease growing
 The time will come when the present visible supply of liquor the country will be exhausted but there will be smuggling from countries and there will be illicit manufacturers everywhere
 The worst thing will not be demonstration that prohibition has failed to prohibit that the crime against prohibition has allowed to multiply all forms of crime

CENSORSHIP
BY DR. FRANK CRANE (Copyright. 1921. by Frank Crane)

The idea of establishing censorship for moving pie turc films is wholly mischievous.
 All the because the motives that prompt It arc the best in the world.
 The sentiment in the minds of the movers of this is that the young and innocent should be shielded from scenes that suggestive of evil
 That is sound sentiment Nobody wants children exposed to profanity, obsceny other soiling things
 The laws at present recognize this, and ndecencies arc punishable by the courts
 But the plan to avoid the bad effects of environment by having some authority look it and decidss whether it is good for not is subty dangerous
 It is the old Monarchy idea, and Hierarchy idea, over again. Theoretically Monarchy is the smoothest and most efficient form of government It is much better to have
 King tell all what to do than for to quarrel over it ourselves
 There's only hitch. Nobody ever discovered how to find competent and honest King every tme <
 King government is the self-evident kind Almost all sefevident things deusons We find the real, true, and practical thing only by experience and much experiment. We had to try kings many long year be- fore found out they would not do.
 So with government by Priests and good men. 1t would be fine for such to attend to all matters of science for And it took many generations and much conflict to find out that hierarchic government will not do for the simple that you cannot trust the hierarchs.
 In fact, no human being nor group, nor class, nor order, nor hereditary enumerated line of human be- ngs; be trusted to either the political or moral responsibility for the people.
 The people must do that for themselves. That's what democracy means. And democracy alone will work. does not work very we'll always but it is the only thing that will work at all.
 And the gst of this is that Censorship will york; for the simple reason that there and be Cen sors that will satisfy the people, l You have got to let the people decide for them selves what books to read and what plays and movies to It's dangerous. But it is nearly so danger as handing the responsibility to the Baptist church, the Women's Christian Temperance Union, the School Teachers to the kind of people gover nors select to sit on boards !, You may try it. It will not work. The people will not stand for it. It will have deadening effect on the movies And it will produce irritation, corruption and universal dissatisfaction.
