And every one Of them died in q
way that would have made the mother
who bore them wish they had stran-
gled in their cradles, IL she could have
looked ahead and visioned even dimly
the horror that came to them!
What does 1t all mean-where Il It
all going to end?
This girl who died in San Francisco
the other day in hideous agony has
never been connected in any way with
Fany scandalous stories Of disgraceful
parties before.
She was a quiet, well!behaved. mod.
est girl, they say, intelligent and well
enough accustomed to the ways of the
world to know what wild parties"
meant.
How did she happen to go to such
an orgy, and after she got there. when
she found out the sort Of party" 1t
was, why didn't she leave the place
Immediately?
What was a self.respecting proud,
high-hearted girl doing at such a
place?
Just exactly what hundreds and per-
haps even thousands Of other girls
are doing, day in and day out, and
night in and night out, all over this
country.
The old-fashioned rules that pro
tected girls who had not sense enough
to protect themselves have all been
broken.
Ten years ago the girl who would
go to a mans room in a hotel. party
or no party, would have thrown away
her good name the instant the fact Of
her visit was known.
Ten years ago any woman who
stayed for ten minutes in a room with
u half-drunken man would have been
considered no better than the man.
Ten years ago girls of decent repu-
tation did not frequent the company
less and disgusting brutes.
Since the war all this is changed.
All the fences are down, all the rules
are back numbers" and half the
girls we meet in the street and see
at>the theater and know in the homes
of our best friends are subjected day
after day TO dangers of which their
mothers never dreamed.
All over the world the situation is
nothing less than appalling. and in
America 1t Ia worse than anywhere
else.
Everybody who knows anything
about Arbuckle or his kind at all
| ought to know what a party" given
by him will mean.
But he il rich; he owns q $25,000
automobile and has Goodness knows
how many servants and Wallets and
hangers-on of every description.
Besides he's q celebrity.

WHEN NONE ARE
PURSUING HIM
Department of Agriculture
Watchman Committed to
Asylum for Observation.

Laboring under the delusion that
he was being pursued by policemen
who wanted to assault him, William
Forrest Gutshall, twenty-eight years
old, watchman at the Department OF
Agriculture, early this morning rushed
into the business office Of The Wash
ington Post and leaping over the
counter pleaded with Victor Hogart,
clerk, to give him protection.
There's a bunch Of policemen after
me-see them!' shouted Gutshall as
he crawled under a counter. Hogart
saw no policemen and believing the
man was out of his mind, telephoned
to Detective Sergeant Ned Weedon at
police headquarters to send q couple
of detectives for the man.
When .Detectiyes Embreye and
Thompson went to the newspaper
office they recognized Gutshall as the
watchman who an hour before had
telephoned to police headquarters, de-
claring that four negroes were in the
Agriculture Department building at
tempting to kill him. The detectives
made an investigation and found no
one at the building but Gutshall ana
returned to police headquarters, re-
porting that Gutshall had delusions.
After being taken from the Post
building, Gutshall was sent to the
Washington Asylum Hospital for OBJ
seryation. He carried a loaded re-
volver and a flash light when taken
into custody.
