years, and Is not yet complete. In
fact, the war has simply extended the
Eastern question from the shores of
the Bosporus to the frontiers OF Ger
many. In place of the little Balkan
states which have kept Europe in an
uproar for half q century, we have
created dozen larger states. equally
certain to threaten the peace of Eu-
rope. With these races the league
of Nations can have no weight, since
whatever the situation In the west of
Europe, nationalism still remains ram
pant in the east. TIL solution of the
questions involved on the basis of the
fourteen points, brings no aid. because
in all major conflicts each side can
with equal justice invoke at least one
of these points to support its conten-
ton.
Is More important.
In sum it is essential for Americans
to recognize that, so far as the peace
of the world is concerned, the Aus
trian settlement is even more i'm
portant than the German and that the
possibilities Of permanent adjustment
are far less numerous. Actually, the
war, by destroying the central author
ity Of the Hapsburg monarchy has re-
leased races whose rivalries are at
least a thousand years old. These
races are unwilling to submit their
claims to the final decision of the
League of Nations as were the Balkan
races to subordinate theirs to the will
of the concert of Europe. However.
boundaries may be drawn hundreds of
thousands of people will in the nature
of things be subjected to a rule they
will not recognize. The Germans will
be placed under Slavs, Slavs under
Italians, Hungarians under Rouman-
ians, Poles under Ukranians, and
Ukranians under Poles, and such a sit
uation can only lead to new crisises.
Already the Italians and Roumanians
have threatened to leave the peace
conference If their claims are not
recognized, while the Poles have de-
fled the Paris conference in Eastern
Galicia, and the Serbs are preparing
to resist the Italians on the Adriatic,
where, as always. peace is only pre-
served by temporary expedients.
theoretically, the Intervention of the
League of Nations Is without power,
and all economic weapons will in the
briefest time, have little weight. Con-
ceivably the great powers will be able
to stop outside the area of conflict
until the races involved have settled
their own disputes, but on the other
hand, in the Balkans this was never
possible, and the dispute between Bull
garia, Serbia and Greece over terri
tory hardly as large as Connecticut
dragged the world into the most stu
pendous conflict of human history,

per dozen waists. When a girl be-
came expert enough to make three or
four dozen waists day she was gener-
ally taken off piecework and paid by
the week-about $12 a week.
For the first few nights Annie was
stimulated by the novelty of her study.
1t seemed miracle that those straight
lines and curves could in time mean
words and phrases, and be read as
clearly and rapidly as print. But as
the lessons progressed from the simple
'pee-bee; chap-jay; kay-gay; sh-zh. .
to the Joined consonants, PIX, b-g,"
ETC., and the complex addition Of the
dotted and dashed vowels, Annie felt
her brain funct1oning stitfly. She had
schooled herself in the factory not to
think. When she tried to think her
needle ran of the seam. her thread
snapped, her needle broke. She was
reprimanded by the floor manager.
She lost time and earned less money.
Her mind had forfeited It's nimbleness
To change over from manual to
mental labor Annie found to be task
Of far greater difficulty than she
dreamed There seemed an unbridg-
able chasm between.
You must put your mind on your
lesson, Miss Hargan," said a voice at
her elbow. you have written back
for Jack Don't you know yet that
81 slants from left to right and j.
from right to left?"
Annie pulled heself together, the
nerves throughout her weary body
strained to their utmost effort. The
next night it was even worse. An I'M
conquerable lassitude gripped her. She
felt numb and Indifferent. Her brain
refused to be whipped into action. Her
eyelids dropped.
Come, come-I can't have pupils
falling asleep over their work! Miss
Hargani I'm surprised at you. You
will have to do better than that"
The rebuke galvanized Annie from
her doze. It took every bit Of will
power to keep awake and go through
the motions of her composing, COPY
ing. transcribing. That night as she
stumbled upstairs and fell into bed
her courage almost failed. She was
too exhausted to rest, and tossed about
till daylight.

Her aunt smiled grimly and shook

"Yes-I've heard that" she said,
"but I've never known a person who
did it, Nance. It's one thing to be
able to write shorthand, and another
to be able to read 1t. Six months Is
nearer what you'll need"
Nevertheless, with high hope Annie
registered at a school near enough to
walk to from the factory. There was
not time to go home for dinner, so
she stopped at a dairy lunchroom after
work and ate fifteen cents worth of
buns or wheatcakes and coffee, ex-
perimenting with different dishes to
see which made the bulk1est and most
lasting meal for the money.
It seemed to Annie In those days
that she was never actually unhungry
To have as much as she wanted to
eat, three times a day, alone repre-
sented in her imagination basis for
happiness.
At first night school was enlivening.
The school building was new, with
roomy desks, big blackboards and very
bright lights. The teacher was young
and brisk and wore pretty white shirt
waists with elbow sleeves. That sort
of waist, Annie knew, was the $1S-a-
dozen line That Is, the men who
ran the Circle Waist Company, where
she worked, got $18 dozen for max

BY Mr.. Elizabeth Thorpson

Dear Mrs. Thompson: ! am twen-
" years old and have never had a
boy companion. / am tall, not pretty
and very old of my age. Older men
always like me. My fathers friends
take such an interest in me when
they come to our home that father
does not like it. But fathers friends
are all married and it doesn't help
me to be liked by them.
want a boy companion SO much,
but don't know where to find one
What can do to make them like me?
The fact that you are old for your
age probably explains your lack of
boy friends. Young men of your own
age do not enjoy you because you
have an older mind than they have,
and the older men of your acquaint-
ance are, as you say, married.
There seems to be a divine law
which attracts people to one another
/ am confident that without any effort
on your part the much desired COM
panion will come. Simply be hopeful
and believe that what Is your will
come to you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: Can you tell
me somthing to do for my hair? 1t
is 50 oily / can hardly comb 1t. /
wash it, but 1t doesn't seem to do
any good, because in about three days
afterward 1t is as oily as before.

half ounces.

ried to a returnd soldier. We were
neighbors and friends for years and
did not think of marrying until he
had to go away. Then he asked me
to marry him and / consented. He
has come home now and we are living
together in a little house Of our own
which his father gave us for we'd
ding present.
When my husband went away
thought l loved him, but did not
know what love was. He and / can
not get along together, but the more
we quarrel the more l care for him.
1t is strange, but think he cares for
me, too. When we have quarrelled
he always does something to make
up without saying he is sorry. He
brings me candy or something he
thinks l will like.
/ am worried about our quarrels.
We go for days without speaking, be-
cause / think 1t is the mans place
to say he is sorry and not try to make
up with a basket of pansies.
What would you advise in our case?
LOVING WIFE.
It is not the mans place to say he
is sorry, because he is not always in
the wrong. His little peace offerings
should be accepted lovingly and the
misunderstanding should be forgotten.
Apologies are not necessary; being
cheerful and doing the right thing
after the misunderstanding is far
more important than an apology.
Love your husband too much to
carry chips. If you are forgiving,
/ am sure that he will be. In time
you will adjust yourselves to each
other and viii be happy, or else you
will quarrel more and more until you
kill one another's love. The future
depends entirely upon your self-con-
troll now.

DISCOVERIES.
Next time you cook prunes add a
few slices of lemon to improve the
flavor, or you may prefer the flavor
OF spices, in which case place a small
bag of spices in the saucepan while
the prunes are cooking.
Any of the following vegetables
will go nicely with beefsteak: Brus-
sells sprouts, caulifower, ouions,
squash, peas, beets, tomatoes, (either
stewed or scalloped), satisfy and mac
aroni. Have the potatoes baked,
fried or creamed. Sweet potatoes are
a savory accompaniment If baked or
broiled.
Before putting milk on to boil for
buildings, etc, grease the cooking
vessel with butter and you will avoid
the annoyance of having the milk
burn to the bottom
After broiling steak spread 1t with
creamed butter, mixed with lemon
juice and chopped parsley.
You can seed raisins in half the
usual time if you pour boiling water
over them.
