Author of a War Bride," "Confessions of a Bride" and "Letters to Lovers." Arbuckle, famous movie comedian, is locked In the "felon's row" of a San Francisco jail--because a girl is dead. There had been a party In Arbuckle's hotel suite. Wealth and youth, beauty and genius had attended. there which a.

certain class considers "the life." But something human was lacking from that party--for the garments of the girl who Is dead were literally "torn to tatters," a -witness testifies! Just what was omitted from the glamorous event? Not brains. The master of the revels can play excellent straight drama as well as comedy. Nobody who has laughed at "Fatty's" stunts ever called him a fool. Not education. A man who has raised his salary from $30 to $5000 week has acquired a liberal education in the Then what was The pitiful heap ot fattered chiffona tell the tale: Character was wanting.

Character which means restraint; restraint which originates in the will and controls the human urges. Whatever the evidence may prove, whatever the result of the inquiry whlch connects Roscoe Arbuckle with the most sensational crime of the decade in America, there remains those shreds of a girl's garments" to stamp and shame a certain kind of fast liv- THE WRONG THEORY.

And we can't help ourselves, he insists; and of course this idea makes tremendous appeal to those do not wish to help themselves FItEUU'S POSITTOX. To some one who objected to his revolting theory, Freud said in a lecture: "The trouble is, you believe in the illusion of psychic freedom and will net give it up. I regret that on this point I find myself in complete to your 1 Now, it is astounding how quickly 'man can grasp a doctrine, which he I agreeable.

This accounts for the rapidity with which Freud's -Abominable theory has seized upon the imagination of persons of all of intelligence. The youth of remote village's thinkers of university centers agret? i 'that the repression of primitive -stincts and the inhibition of mental impulses react to the injury; of the Individual! Those who never heard Freud's -name snatch at his philosophy as a of nature which they must obey! And some who do not sin themselves, laugh at, or condone, or tolerate sin--as a sex necessity--In others! ABSURDITY OF THEORY. WOMEN WITNESSES IN ARBUCKLE CASE THESE women were among the guests at the fatal Arbuckle (center) revel and testified before the grand jury as to what took place in the motion picture comedian's hotel rooms in San Francisco where Virginia Rappe is alleged to have received injuries which resulted in her death several days later. Mrs. Delmont is a beauty specialist of Los Angeles; Betty Campbell, Alice Blake, Zey Pyvrpn-Prevost and Dolly Clark are San Francisco entertainers.

Mrs. Delmont, companion of Miss Rappe at the party, who swore to the murder complaint, and Miss Pyvron-Prevost, are regarded by the prosecution as most important witnesses. Starting Today Another Big Super Special A THE, CUP OF LIFE" i a dlftinguiihod Hobart Boeworllt. Madge A i byjhmvu H. -Snct.
