SERVANT PROBLEM
DISTURBS ENGLAND
Thousands Who F1ocked Into War
Work, Now Refuse Domestic
Service.

LONDON, January 80 tCorrespon-
dence Of the Associated Press)-Time
was when Americans, harassed by the
servant problem, came to England to
live Here they could keep house in
peace and sing the virtues of English
domestics, making comparisons based
on experience in the United States
with servants of every race and color.
They declared that from housekeeper
and cook-genera1 to nurse and be-
tween-maid the English serving women
had no peers--they worked harder, bet
ter, longer hours and with more will
lingness and for less pay than serv-
ants in any other part of the world.
Now many of these Americans are
returning home. They have not modi-
fed their notions about English serv-
ants, but they simply cannot hire
them any more. England, as a result
of the war, is having her own servant
pro blem.
The trouble began when the servant
girls hocked into war work House
holders were greatly inconvenienced
dwellings and moved into hotels. 9th
ers did their own work, expecting the
servants would return when the war
ended. But the fighting has been over
a long time now, scores of munition
factories have closed, and still the
girls have not returned to their old
employment. Whether they ever will
return is q favorite subject of gloomy
speculation at many a tea table.

when Peter the Great established
ST. Petersburg as his new capital
much trade was diverted to the Bal
tic, but Archangel was compensated
by designation as the capital of the
Archangel government. Boris God
unov threw trade open to all nations
and in the seventeenth century Tartar
prisoners were set to work building
a large bazaar and trading hall. De-
spite its isolation the city thus be
came cosmopolitan center, and up
to the time of the world war No
wegian, German, British, Swedish and
Danish cargo vessels came in large
numbers.
EVERY June thousands of pilgrims
would pass through Archangel on
their way to the famous far north
shrine, Solovetsky monastery, situated
on an island little more than half a
days boat journey from Archangel
'.The city acquired its name from
the convent of Archangel Michael.
