A. L. ERLANQER, ELPHYE SNOWDON (ON LEFT) AND EDITH ST.
CLAIR.
Abraham L. Erlanger. head of the
“theatrical trust 'of America" will
have to pay $22,500 to Edith St. Clair,
a young and pTetty actress, if the ver
dict of a New York Jury Is not over
ruled. The trial haa been very Inter
esting for New York and very em-
Jmcrassing for Mr. Erlanger.
. Mias St. Clair testified that Erl auger
had agreed to pay her $75 a week "for
her entire lifetime," and that later
he rescinded this contract, but gave
her another calling for tbe payment

.the problem* of uvenlle delinquency
has received attention, and is receiv
ing It Increasingly. This is but one
of the signs of the times, another of
the moves that are being made to
turn the child Into a good and pro
ductive citizen.
- “For many yearn recreation was
.looked upon as a fad. I venture to
say that, 20 years ago, such things as
Ilgygrounds did not exist in all the
mgtn and breadth of the city of Chi
cago. Yet today the tendency Is more
and to recoßtßie that recreation
is not au indulgence but only a par*
of the discipline of Hfe.
\‘*'More ahd more the' government
has come to recognize that the ad
vance of the nation lies la the child
and Us preservation.

regard s longer course of schooling

bsae of child labor and more of the
schools which enrich both the child

After one payment, he failed to keep

her.
Miss St Clair further ‘ explained
that all her trouble with Mr. Erlanger
was due to another actress, Elpßye
Snowdon, who was "Jealous of her,"
gnd of whom Mr. Erlanger became
very fond. Erlanger Insists that he
was blackmailed, and says he signed
tbe contract to save annoyance to his
wife who was 111 at the time, and who
afterwards divorced him.
