He cannot be sneered at as judging without due knowledge.
"It is nearly impossible for a woman to remain pure who adopts the stage as a pro- fession. Everything is against her. The freedom of life, of speech, of gesture, which is the rule behind the curtain, renders it al- most impossible for a woman to preserve that simplicity of manner which is, after all, her greatest charm. The whole life is arti- ficial and unnatural to the last degree, and therefore an unhealthy life tq live.
" But what i...s infinitely more ^o be de- plored is that a woman who endeavors to keep her purity is almost of necessity fore- 132 Border Lines doomed to failure in her career. It is an awful thing to say, and it is still more ter- rible that it is true, but no one who knows the life of the green room will dare deny it. " While admitting that, in spite of all these difficulties and degrees, there are men and women who live pure lives even with such surroundings, Mr. Scott says that this "does not remove the great temptations from the weaker brethren." He adds: "I am not a canting prig or a Pharisee who makes broad his phylacteries, and says, ' Thank God, I am not as other men are.' The temptation of the stage is, and has been, quite as bad for me as for any one else, if not worse.
