A REPLY TO ADA WARD
(Per Press Association.) AUCKLAND, May 25. Miss Ruth Lincoln, leading lady ot Meynell and Gunn’s Pantomime Company, characterises Miss Ada Y ard s statements about the morality of the stage as disgraceful. It is absurd to say you cannot be good if on the stage, she declared. “If a. woman wants to keep straight she can keen straight on the 1 stage just as well as m any othei walk of life. Certainly the whole of the surroundings of stage life are open to temptations, but so are those of other professions. Many of the girls on the stage are splendid characters; and some of them are. really religious.
