If there ia a scarcity of themes from which to select pictures, then there would be some justification in the production of the nude in art in pictures, but there are scores of plays, educational, historic and ro- mantic, to supply public demands without infringing upon the bounds of propriety In my estimation it is a useless expenditure of time to! even think of such a thing as the} showing of the nude in art in pic tures because of the spiritual, intel lectual and moral effects, T. 8 Movie Editor, Star: 1 say YES!
