FREE AUTOJDtS ARE BHD FOR

Police Matron Tells Them to Beware When Invited to Ride With Unknown Men.

By Nora Ball Ragedala.

Why will girls? Why will they acuept invitations from men whom they do not know, to ride in automobiles? This question has reference to the girls who really have no intention of being bad—but who apparently lack their share of good, common, horse sense. *Tis true that men should be men all the way through, and if they were such, it would be safe for a girl who has a long distance to walk, to accept the kindness of a "lift" by a man who happened to possess an automobile. Unfortunately, and certainly not to their credit, a certain percentage of men lack an ordinary sense of decency and propriety to say nothing of hofior where girls are concerned. Now this is what I am driving at:

TOO MANY TERRE HAUTE GIRLS ARE? ACCEPTING INVITATIONS FROM STRANGE MEN TO GO MACHINE RIDING. THERE IS Jt PRICE THAT MUST BE PAID. MANY GIRLiS ARE PAYING IT.

To illustrate Exactly how the automobile stunt is worked by certain males, here is a true example, related today to me by Mrs. H. Zimmerman, Police Court matron, to whom two girls told their story: "There are two very nice young %romen, agee eighteen and twenty, who work here in Terre Haute. Their work keeps them until ten in the evening. Upon leaving the office, recently, they went to Seventh and "Wabash to get a Car. None appeared in sight, so they dectfied to walk east until one should overtake them. They were stopped at the railroad crossing on Wabash by a freight train. While standing there, they noticed a big gray machine tv erving up very close to where they were standing. They recalled that the machine had passed them several times while they Were walking from Seventh to Tenth 'and One-Half. Finally the machine stopped beside them! One of the men leaned out and said, "Where are you going, girls?' Foolishly, they told him the section of the town in which they lived, and the man •aid, 'We'll take you home.' "The girls climbed into the machine and soon were being whisked out East Wabash toward what formerly was a road house. The girls said the men W£nt in and got drinks and brought drinks to them in the machine, and the girls asked to be taken home. Instead, the men took them on to Seeleyville, where the drinking performance was repeated. "It was at this junction that one of the girls began to cry. The other said •he had made up her mind to fight, and when the machine was started again, and they were coming In toward the City on the Poplar strest road, she told them that she realized •hat the? had a right to make any remarks o the girls that they wished, since the girls had been foolish enough to get into their machine. But uhe

Explained that they had not known what it was all about until they had Started, and appealed to the men to take them home. "One of the men said ta her that they weren't taking gtrls joy riding for the entertainment of the girls that the night before they had taken three deferent sets of girls out in their machine and assured her they were letting no opportunities escape. After persistent entreaties, however, on the part of the girls, the men apologized for their discourteous treatment, said they had tnade a mistake, and would take them home. They took the girl who had tnade such a fuss home first, letting her out within a block from her house. They took the second girl on toward her home, but never attempted to stop. She opened the door and jumped from ,the machine, badly praising herself. "Now then, we're on the trail of the big gray machine! yid we're trying to give this story as a thing that actually happened, as a warning to other girls in the future."

So there von are, gtrls! Ton have Bo business climbing into automobiles of unknown men. Just keep in mind always that as a rule, the man whom you do not know and who asks you to ride, is a man ^ith whom you cannot afford to take a chance. If you do this, youTI never have a story to tell the poHoe matron.

SUEGLAB TRAP KILLS BOY IN OKLAHOMA CITY

"Lawrence Hopkins, 16 year old "boy, who was left at the r^ar door of the emergency hospital dying of buckshot wounds, was killed a burglar trap while attempting to break into a sufPl y house in Oklahoma City.

This is the theory of the police following a report from the supply company manager, who said he had arranged a shotgun in such a position that the opening of the door would discharge it, after finding the door of the building open at night upon several recent occasions.

The boy was left at the hospital doo^ by an automobile party made up of accomplices in the attempted burglary, according to the police theory.

At The Movies

By Niaoe O'Brien.

That the Metro people have the facilities for turning out exceptionaUy l'ine pictures has been demonstrated upon more than one occasion. For instance there was the production of "Romeo and Jirliet," in which Franeis X. Bushman and Beverly Bayne appeared, which was a classic from a production standpoint.

In "L.est We Forget," the present Metro offering at the American, we have another film example of what can be done with a bi.ar subject. The story is based upon the sinking of the Lusitania, which made us all feel like going righ over and getting the kaiser. Kit a .Tolivet, who was on the boat when it sank, talked with Charles Frohman, who will rank as one of the greatest of producing theatrical managers of all time and Charles Klein, whose plays will live, just before the Lusitania was torpedoed, is enacting a tragic chapter from her own life, in this film. A lever girl is Rita Jolivet. a protege of the great Coquelin, who appeared with Bernhardt in London plays before coming to America. In the oast of "l^est We Fortret" are other players more easily identified by film fans.
