Millions who year or two ago never
dreamed Of being in battle. have fought
like veterans. And our overseas com
radesi This war is dreadful in many
respects, but it has brought out not
only the unity of our empire but also
the splendid qualities of the race.
This autumn l varied my military
work, which takes up a good deal of
time, by a number of courses of univer-
sity extension and was surprised and
pleased to find them so we'll attended,
for the war has told on university
work, as you will easily imagine. Peo-
pie cannot afford to spend as they did
formerly, and in addition war work
makes insistent call upon both women
and men, so that while it is true that
attendance at a course is a rest as
we'll as an instruction, the feeling is
strong that work must ever have the
preference.
In this direction again the war made
itself felt. Indeed oxford particularly
asked that lectures should bear al
least 'obliquely' on the war. My chief
course was on the warning nations,
together with the United States as
representative of the neutrals, and on
the ideals and purposes of these. You
will. if so minded, have the opportunity
of reading them in book form, as they
are TO be published both in America

out in the early spring.

Leaves Without It

Just what use a complete en-
balming outfit could possibly be to
burglar, is a question puzzling
the police. Tubes, vessels, cotton,
scalpels, needles and various other
equipment employed only in pre-
pairing bodies for burial comprised
the rich haul' made by an unan-
nounced and unlimited visitor to
the Moore & Mcclellan undertaking
establishment sometime yesterday.
Intact in a suit case, the entire out
fit was recovered by the police
last evening, as a result of a visit
to room in the Vendome hotel.
When a report of the robbery of
the funeral parlors was made to
the police, it was the consensus of
opinion among the officers that the
very nature of the goods taken
would preclude any attempt to dis
pose of the proceeds of the unher-
aided visit to a secondhand estab-
lishment. Investigation led the Of
ficers to the Vendome and in a
room, occupied until a very short
time previously, the missing suit
case was found.
The landlady of the Vendome
gave good description of her
roomer and said he had been in his
room an hour or more previously.
The embalming outfit is at the
police station and the police are
endeavoring to make their work
complete by bringing in the

EVOLUTION Of WOMAN OUTLINED
IN OXFORD PROFESSORS LETTER

The evolution of woman has been
the one outstanding revelation in the
present great European struggle, ac-
ford, north of London, England, in a
communication TO Martha Fowlkes-
Haun of 1114 North Second street,
Phoenix. Mrs. Fowlkes- Haun was a
student at oxford when Mr. Sunich-
rast was a lecturer at that famous
university.
According to the Englishman, the
war has afforded ample opportunity
for women to display abilities and arts
that were, previously, thought to be be-
yond their powers. In England, he
states, they have replaced the strong
sex in the munitions plants, in factor
les and in the field, thus relieving men
from the home burden in order that
they might go to the front
The letter, in part, is as follows:
You would be amazed at the changes
the war has wrought, changes so num-
erous, so deep, tso startling, in many
cases, that even we, who have lived
through them, are struck by them. 1t
is not only the dominance of khaki
uniforms nor, alas. the innumerable
wounded, MANNED, crippled blinded
men one meets continually or sees in
the endless hospitals, but the wholly
extraordinary and magnificent manner
in which woman at once and without
reserve saw her work ready to her
hand and undertook it, This is prob
ably the most significant event. 1t has
transformed the country. Woman has
undertaken the most varied and the
most apparently impossible tasks, and
she has done and is doing them per-
fectly OF course. it is in the nursing
that she comes most prominently be-
fore the public and there she is with
out n peer. Man nurses have gone to
the remote parts of the earth, where
fighting is in progress. and every one
knows the epic of the nurses in Serbia
and Montenegro.
We are now quite used to women as
conductors on buses and trans
ought TO use the American "trolleys,
and l have seen them at the railway
stations handling heavy freight. They
drive huge motor wagons as Wen as
ambulances. They garden and farm;
they fill the munitions works, which
are all over the land. In short, there
is scarcely any line of work, formerly
considered beyond their powers, that
they have not taken over, releasing
the men for the fighting line.
And what linel We ourselves do
not know its full length, but now and
then il crops up that we have taken
over further stretch from the French.
And our men are simply magnificent.
