CHILDREN OF THE CITY NG DEBAUCHED THEATER SCHOOL FOR CRIME Women Urged to See That Authorities Stop All Shocking Exhibitions. BY LAURA fl POWERS. “Methods Used by Paris Thicyes and Murderers.” Fellow clubwomen, mothers and fathers of San Francisco, behold the above anpouncement flashing from the portals of a theater In your e¢ity—a licensed theater on the principal street of your eity, inviting into its cavernous depths yeur children and mige to teach them the methods of the worst crimi- nals in the world of crime—presuppos- ing Paris to be worse than San Fran- cisco. During the last week seven boys be- tween the ages of eight to fifteen have been arrested for robbery and burglary, a record for which every ecitizen of San Francisco should hang his head iIn shame, for the causes lie not far from our own doorsteps. That similar conditions exist over the bay and elsewhere is no palliation for our erimes of omission, if only of omis- sion they be. Juvenile crime in San Francisco has become a madness, fired by such ex- hibitions as that placarded above, and | sponding permitted by a complaisant people, a, The officers are: blind police and an indifferent adminis- tration to thrive almost under the shadow of the City Hall, Curfosity led me on seeing so astound- ing an announcement brazenly pro- ciaimed to Investigate the place—a 10- cent theater—which proved to be liber- ally patronized by a very decent lot of plain people, who seemingly enjoyed the doings upon the stage, without any great discrimination in the matter of applause. And the performance was harmless—stu- pidly, hoosierly harmless—until the end, when the biograph presented “The Meth- ods Used by Paris Pickpockets, Thieves and Murderers,” in full compliance with its promise. Calmly and without protest the audi- ence sat—in which were scores of boys and girls—drinking in with avidity the details of crime as practiced by profes- sional® in the arts of the underworld. The “thieves” . picture presented a couple of street arabs, with a grown-up pal, in all the stages of development of the crime, from the, arrival at the store to be robbed to the division of the swag in a den of thieves beneath the pave- ment. To go into the shocking details of the others is unnecessary—they are too brutal. Now, men and women of S8an Francisco, what think vou of this sort of education for our children? Your child doesn’t go there? Perhaps not, madam. But some wom- an's child does. And every child in San Francisco Is the ward of the public in so far as its mental, moral and physical well being is concerned. And the thing must stop—not only this shocking exhi- bition—but the appalling indecencies of the penny arcades—if we may hope to stem the tide of juvenile debauchery and erime that is now sweeping over the country. Of what use are our Juvenile Court and our Parental School and our Detention Home and all other agencies for the sav- ing of children if we stand idly by and see them corrupted under our very eyes? To his Honor the Mayor I dommend this thing, to the Board of Supervisors and the Police Department, and I par- ticularly commend it to my fellow club- women, most of whom are mothers and through whose efforts nearly all the re- form legislation for children has been brought about. Clubwomen, it lies in your path of duty to see to it that the eity is purged—and purged now—if these theatrical outrages and pemny arcade indecencies, before more of our children are corrupted in the name of greed. The Forum Club offers many interest- ing programmes for the month of De- cember, not the least of which is the last Wednesday in the month, when Mrs. Frank Fredericks, the well beloved presi- dent, will entertain the members in their clubrooms. Next Wednesflay the monthly luncheon will precede a talk upon “Californla and Her Fruit Industries,” by Mrs. B. N. Rowley, leader. The club luncheon is fast becoming an institution, not only on this side of the bay, but over yonder. And it is good fun —if your nelghbors be not of the Gen- tle Annie variety, who neither bave an idea nor appreciate the fact that you have one. P To-morrow at 4 o'clock the Rev. Henry Woods, 8. J., will deliver his fifth lec- ture upon French history, “The Empire in Building,” the course being conducted under the auspices of the St. Ignatius Tralning Assoclation. These lectures by so eminent a scholar have been largely attended, interest grow- ing with each succeeding talk. The following men and women are serving as managers and patrons of the lecture course: Mrs. Thomas B. Bishop, Mrs. T. A. Fol- ger, Mrs. T. Downey Haryey, Mrs. George Hyde, Mrs. Joseph Hooper, Mrs. W. C. Irwin, Mrs. Lougborough, Mrs. Eleanor Martin, Mrs. E. M. McKinstry, Miss Phelan, Mrs. A. F. Payson, Mrs. R. E. Queen, Mrs. Frances T. Sullivan, Mrs. P. de Vecchi, Most Rev.

G On Thursday ot this week Joseph Con- rad’s play, “To-Morrow,” will be dis- cusse® and dissected by the dramatic sec- tion of the California Club, Mrs. James C. Crawford attending to the discussion and Dr. Dorothea Moore the dissection. As it was impossible to obtain a dra- matization of the story, Mrs. Will A, Maddern, leader, set out to dramatize it herself, with highly interesting results, 1 am told. To elucidate the strong parts, Miss Ruth Allen and Herbert Farjeon of the Alcazar and Miss Meric Maddern, a tal- ented Jittle maid and daughter of the sec- tion leader, will read from the play. The women of the section are very mueh set up over this being the first co- terie of clubwomen to open their arms to Conrad, the artistic ethieist, and their minds. All clubwomen are invited to the work the present live 3 Wn mar- velously in Interest and importance In this city of clubs there's not a elev- erer, keener club than the Philomath, the membership of which is made up of the %h# women in town, the club is primarily social, it is alive to the : the hour, availing i of the ce well a oSt Mandes,” when e ecostume. “ll-l‘ Hec garb ye & ikper. upor “What 3 Have 0.

The speaker showed that San Franecisco is far behind other cities in these matters and needs to be aroused along this line. - The subject for the afternoon’s dis- cussion was taken up by Mrs. Norman H. Martin in her paper entitled “Some Literary Women,” followed by Mrs. W. H. Dalton on *“Philanthropic Women,"” after which members contributed anec- dotes and quotations. Miss Amy Peter- son rendered a piano solo, following which was given an amusing scene en- acted by Miss Sibyl Marston and Mis: Alma Ward, after which Corena ad- journed until December. . .
