TURE.
New York Tribune:
> One by one traditions and conven-
tions go toppling over in this age of
progress—or iconoclasm. Justice
Blanchard is responsible for the down-
fall of the latest one. In an obiter dic-
tum he remarks: “The time has gone
fly when an action for divorce can be
predicated on the mere fact that a
woman visits a man at his apart-
ments. This is an enlightened age, and
women are encroaching upon man's
sphere of activities. They may have
ulrofessional business together, and
this is especially the fact when they
are members of the same profession."
All this is true, and is pretty gen-
erally recognized by sensible people.
[But whatever will literature and dra-
ma do if the tradition, punctured by
common sense, also becomes untena-
ble In law? The situation of the inno-
cent wit‘e in the other man‘s rooms at
night is gray headed and stoop shoul-
dared from overwork in novel and
, play. Almost as common is the inci-
- dent of the sweet young thing who
‘ hopes to gain her, her money, sweet
I r-r—r-e-venge, or something bf the sort.
' 'Of course, all comes out “right" in
Film end, after three acts or seventeen
chapters, and the dear, good audience
knows all's going to end happily.
.But some reform must Ibe achieved
by the authors if the absurdity of mis-
understanding which three or four
words of natural explanation would
settle forthwith is becoming so pa-
tent that even the law and the bench
solemnly recognize it. It seems time
to expect a refurnishing of literary
and' dramatic stock in trade, to keep
. pace with the advance in feminism.
