Warning Against White Slavery

By Editor

A little circular comes to us from Henry Hanson, of Soldiers Home, Kansas, warning schoolgirls to look out. It declares, truthfully, that the white slave recruiters are dressed up as angels of light, and are picking up the fairest, most beautiful and innocent girls of our country, and selling them to dens of vice and crime, from which they never get out alive. They are kept drunk. Five years is the average life, but many live only five weeks, in these dens of vice and murder. Look out for the traffickers. The United States penalty for the white slaver is $10,000 and five years.
