Germ in its Grcenpoint factory for

Only a trial jury can determine
whether this woman is guilty. She IN

attract general attention. because II
is a most unusual one. Considering
the immense number OF women who
are trusted in the offices of great
business houses, the percentage OF
them accused OF dishonesty Is mar
velously small.
Students OF human nature. psychol-
ogists and SOCIOLOGICAL. have failed to
explain this anomaly. Woman, as
woman, Is commonly held to be rath-
of business. The objectionable Of
fense for her Is not dishonesty, as II
is for man. She is generally not

 LONDON, Oct. 2.-Reports are scanty from the Rumanian fighting and little or no details are coming out. A Bucharest report via Petro- grad denies that severe defeat was inflicted on the Rumanian left wing by von Falkenhayne. The admitted invasion of Bulgaria shows that the blow has not been very stunning even if the Rumanians did suffer a reverse. for their swift invasion of Bulgaria indicates confidence in the left wing to hold its own.
