"It seem? very brave, indeed, wh*

That is why I beg young girl? to wait

and think I was vulgar."
City Best Placa to Rear Children.
Like H. G. Well?. Mr?. Haie believe?
the city infinitely better than the
country as a piece to br.ng up chil?
dren. '
"Girls in the city have better morals
than country girls, better imagination,
and much more independence. I should

Koston the World's Most Wicked City.
"It woulj seem a pity if after all
'he?e years of living I couldn't say
something to help young girls. I am
I so interested in them and their prob?
lems. 1 know, too, what temptations
there are for the girl of the boarding
house alone in a big city. I, too, lived
in a boarding house in my student
days. That was in Boston, you know,
and I still consider it the most wicked
city in the world.
"I came from Indianapolis to study
Delsarte and elocution. That was as
, near as my parents would let me go in
my desiro to be an actress."
Mrs. Hale became an actress and a
very tine one. She is now appearing
in "The (."lever Ones" at the Punch and
Jutiy Theatre.
"Aun I, like many another girl study?
ing moste, art and elocution, lived in a
boarding house in the worst part of
Boston because rent was cheaper there.
And we weren't harmed- -the most of
us. But it is because of what I saw
there that I think there ought to be
clubrooms with little private parlors
where girls living in boarding houses
could entertain their friends. The girl
students in Boston had to receive call
? rs in their bedrooms, and sometimes
there were consequences. I don't re?
gret, however, whst I went through in
those days, but I shouldn't like any
other young girl to undergo it.
"After all, when a girl 'goes wrong,'
as we say, her downfall has not been
so sudden and so hard as novelists lead
us to believe. With most of them the
process is such a gradual one that the
girl can't point to any single incident
and say, *T':en I fell.' That is why I
object to young g;rlo being left un
chaperoned, and to their picnics for
two, and t<> moonlight rides, and all
that sort of thing. When a girl accus?
tom? herself to the kisses and caresses
cf men part of her defence is down.
Will This Help?
"I don't suppose all this talk has
helped any, and there is no uie telling
a )0uug girl that her physical develop- ,
merit isn't, after all, the biggest thing
in her life. That's one of the things <
she has to live to learn. I wi?h ?he
aoojltj take it from me. Perhap? one
of them will take it fron, me, so this
tirade hasn't been entirely wasted. Or
perhaps it will help many a father and
mother to a clearer underitanding of
an effective guardianship of their
children.'' ft

?\NTI DECORATES :
SUFFRAGE WINDOW
?
Hurried to Task by little Wom?
an and a Dog, She Works
Reluctantly, but Well.
The Fifth Avenu' Suffrage Shop
has done good work for the cause, but !
yesterday'? achievement put all former
one? in the ?hade. An anti-suffragist,
who?e name would be recognized hv
many if ?he would let it be published,'
put in two hour?' hard work decorat?
ing the window with suffrage sign?.
Mrs. Thomas Maiison got the anti to
do it. Mr?. Manson arrived at the:
shop about noon, to find the window
trimmings looking as if a cyclone had
struck them. The miniature theatre
which show? *tvhat women could do
with the vote stood on its head, with j
suffrage mottoes torn from their moor- ?
ings and scattered in wild confusion.
Suspecting an invasion of the enemy,,
Mr?. Manson sought wildly for a key i
to the shop, and f.nally was admitted
by a locksmith. Her dog Tito accom- '
lamed her. Assis'? ?1 l.v T.'o, she tried
to put the trimmings in place, but Mrs.
Manson is very short, and the window'
is high.
It wa? at thll erieil that the anti ap- '
peared, taking a morning walk up Fifth
Avenue. She was considerably sur?
prised to be ?et upon and dragged into
the Suffrage Shop Itf an excited small
woman and a barking dog. bu', a? Mr?.
Manson explained afterward, she knew
the anti socially, and this wa- a? ?ime
for half measure*.
'?You're nice an.l tall," Mr?. Mans.m
told the anti. "Fasten up this lip.
We've got to get this wir.dowjn order
before the afternoon meeting."
The anti protested, but it was no use.
Mrs. Manson would not be gainsaid,
and for two hours those anti? who
walked on Fifth Avenue had the pleas?
ure of beholding their sister hard at
work nailing up posters about anti
suffragc being leagued with the legioas
cf commercialized vice, and so on.
When the window was in order again
the handy man of the Suffrage Shop
strolled in, and explained that he wa?
responsible for mussing up the decora?
tion?. A 10-foot board with the an?
nouncement of the ?uffrage bill on it
dropped accidentally when he was mov?
ing it.
