because of girls who are lured to the
California city by promise of fame in
the movle3. Their dreams shattered,
they disappear, wandering wherever
the fates direct them."
A particularly tragic feature of the
situation, according to Mrs. Van
winkle, Is the fact that half of the
girls are not more than 16 or 17 years
old.
"Many of these missing women be-
come criminals, some are out-and-out
prostitutes and most of them become
sex offenders to a greater or less
degree," Mrs. Vanwinkle continued
'.'But it is wrong to assume that thev
are all ignorant or of the morron type,

are women with college educations.
"It is a curious thing. Boys are led
Into crime by lure of adventure. One
boy we handled recently possessed a
passion for driving automobiles. He
stole three cars that he might have
the thrill of driving them. Finally, we
got ihm a Job as chauffeur and he's
been good ever since.
"It's different with girls. Their en
trance into crime is generally trace
able to a man's influence. Crime,
with them, follows sex offenses. They
may steal for the love of a man; they
w.lsh to impress him by wearing at
tractive clothes. Or they may have
left home because they thought, once
when a man said he loved them, that
he meant it."
"And women will go any length to
protect their men.
Fraudulent movie concerns, prom
ising girls fame and fortune, are re
sponsible for the beginning of much
female waywardness, Mrs. Vanwinkle
said.
"These concerns may be found in
nearly all the largo cities," she said,
with ads in the local papers. We dis
covered one in Washington. We sent
five or six of our police girls, in plain
clothes, to apply for movie roles, but
the 'manager' told them, one after
another, that they wouldn't do. Final:
ly we chose a large girl, one who does
the rough work in shop-lifting cases.
The 'movie magnate' said she'd do. Ho
locked her in the room nnd began
making advances to her. She pulled
her gun and now he's under arresti

MOVIE MOVES
"The Nut," Starring Fairbanks
Coming to Casino Wednesday
An optical feast Is promised to pic
ture patrons when Douglas Fairbanks
new photo-foaturo, "The Nut," opons
next Wednesday, for a two-day run
Ax. tho Casino theater.
According to advance reports re
garding this production, tho public
may expect to view a real celluloid In
novation, For originality and novelty
o treatment, this picture Is said to
excell anything yet attempted by tho
Insonlous "Doug." Although no an
nouncement has been made of tho ex.
net nature of tho photoplay, It is un
derstood to provide a now typo of
characterisation for tho popular star.
A statement l33ued from, the New
York office of the United Artists,
which is releasing this screen offer
ing, conveys the information that
"The Nut" deals with the adventures
of an eccentric young Inventor who
falls in love with a girl In New York's
historic Greenwich Vllage. "Doug's"
adventures as a gay Lothario are said
to involve some of the most amazing
and comical complications ever shown
upon the screen. Much of the "busi
ness" for the story, as well as data re
lating to the "locations" was gath
ered personally by Fairbanks during I
his stay in New York Just after his
return from Europe last fall.
With Kenneth Davenport, author of
the piece, the star lived two week's
in the famous Bohemian quarters of j
the metropolis and made an intimate
study of those eccentric and talented
people who live in the -Village.
It is believed that as a result of
these observations the plcture-going
public will be given the most life
like interpretation of the character
istics and mannerisms of these re
markable folk that has ever yet been
shown.
