florists are preparing for the day by
stocking up with all kinds OF flowers,
and several corsages will be worn in
the city Sunday by the fair sex.
The charming festical Seems to be
growing in popularity. The day is
generally becoming an occasion for
an exchange OF greetings among
friends. But 1t is still more strictly
kept as the time for sending OF love
laden remembrances from youths to
maidens.
Books are now looked upon as ac-
ceptable valentines. too. but the true
lover who cannot manufacture his
own is likely to select something else
as his offering. Comic post cards and
the many penny COMICS are the yalen-
tines which seem the most popular in
Clarksburg this year.

Professor Asserts
War to- Make Women
Drug on the Market

WASHINGTON Dec. 2s.--At today's
session OF the American Civic association.
at which Miss Margaret Wilson, daugh-
ter OF President Wilson, presided, Prof.
Emily q. Balch Of Wellesley college told
the society that one of the effects OF
war on the status OF women would be TO
make them "A drug on the market"
1T may that in more primitive times"
said she. that such a situation would
be a cause of polygamy. In our day IL
will mean a vast overplus of women. Men
will return not only with Importance
enhanced by the glory Of the battle
field, but with a scarcity value.
"A second and conflicting effect is
that women being more necessary, be-
come more important instead of less. A
third effect will be a great increase OF
unmarried women. Another result is
that there is forming under our very
eyes a new sex-internationaJ. Some one
has said, IF the brotherhood of man
had grown as much in the last two CEN
turtles as the sisterhood of women has
grown in the last two decades, this war
would not have occurred"
