then there was a sudden "re-organiza-

Yet when a young woman looked
about for an institution where she
might get technical training in
domestic sciences and arts she had
to 20 far afield to find one. Perhaps
that has had something to do with
the tendency Of young women who
had an ambition for study to stake
up" all sorts Of fads and to break
into mems professions where they
remained only until marriage.
The opening in Washington Of o
college for the teaching of the
things which young housewife
needs to know marks a tendency
now noticeable all over the country
The public schools already are Civ

institutions are springing up where
young women may continue their
studies in this field.
Perhaps the day Is not so far of
when a young woman who holds a
degree as a home-maker may have

permanent appointment as a wife
that she would have as private

had. graduated from a business

EFFORT TO SAVE ROUMANIA

The major powers of the entente
are not going to make the mistake
Of allowing Roumania to be sacri-
feed. 1t is quite possible that If
their newest ally should meet, right
on the threshold of entering the
war, the fate of Belgium and Serbia,
it would turn the wars tide against
the entente. For the destruction of
Roumania would make it almost i'm
possible thereafter to establish a
preponderance Of force for the allies
in the Balkans. The Balkans may
or may not be the scene Of the wars
decisive moves; but the domination
of the Balkans by the Teutonic pow
ers, at the end of the war, would
amount to fearful defeat for the
allies. To lose Alsace-Lorraine, but
to have established German hege-
mony from Belgium to Bagdad
would leave Germany decidedly the
gamer. There will be no permanent
peace that denies Russia access to
the Mediterranean.
Let Germany establish an I'M
breakable front in the Balkans, and
there will be, for the allies, the
gravest danger that Russia may be
willing to negotiate a separate peace
with the central powers. To crush
Roumania would well-nigh establish
that unbreakable front. Russia
would be given her choice between
fighting on for fruitless victory
and buying a free Dardanelles with
an early peace. There is danger in
such position. .

recognize this. 1t is announced that

terms Of one contestant, and without
