The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1919-11-06

Rumania entered the war with the
reputation of having the best army IN the
Balkans. All the other email nations had
stood in awe of her because of this ira
dition. The chaneeilories of the Entente
alliance and the German capitals had
conducted long contest to win her sup
port Germany offered to restore the
lands taken from her by Russia, and the
Entente offered to restore Pennsylvania.
taken by Hungary. The Hohenzollern
King was besought TO stand by his family
and the Russian-English Queen gave her
support to the strong party which re-
membered that the Rumanians were Ro-
mans and kin of the Italians and
French
When Rumania entered the war great
sigh of hope went up from the Entente
nations Here was the sign that the
shrewd men of Bucharest had decided
that Ententes was the winning side.
What Germany thought is plainly shown
by Ludendorff. The military chiefs, hard
pressed on all fronts, felt this was the
blow which was likely TO be their end.
Rumania has charged that he defeat
was due to treachery at Petrograd-,hat
the Russians deliberately drew her into
the war, and they Betrayed her SO she
might be left helpless st the end OF the
war and Russia thus have a chance to
absorb her, crush Bulgaria, ami thus
have the free road to Constantinople that
had been her long-ne1d dream.
1t is true Russia did rot send the help
she expected and that she was left to
conduct the war on her own hook. Yet In
the light of the revelations made by
Ludendorff the excuse Is hardly sufficient.
The Rumanian army, long prepared for
action, advised by French strate gists of
the first rank, struck quickly across the
Transylvanian Alps in the first days OF
September. What a chance 1t had is
shown by the admission Of Ludendorn
that that the mountain passes Were taken

The Russians, too. showed no ca

making a thrust at our open flank

plans and the failure of the Russians
to keep their part of the bargain led
TO the fatal hesitations of the Ruman-
ians, which Ludendorff now recounts.)

repeated erroneous statements circu-

PAIGE DEALER VISITS
THE DETROIT FACTORY
BY AIRPLANE ROUTE

Harry DeBoer, of Milwaukee, had
business in Detroit. Cleveland and To-
/ ledo last week and, as time was
precious, decided to make his trip in
the most expeditions way possible.
Consequently Mr.. DeBoer hoped off
in an airplane and flew directly to all
three cities, thus completing perhaps
the longest airplane trip yet made for
purely business purposes.
Mr., DeBoer is secretary of the Os-
mond Motor Car company, of MilWau-
kee, distributors of Paige cars in that
territory, and his method Of travelling
indicates that business men are really
considering the airplane not merely as
a sport or war machine, but serious
factor of transportation and one that
is especially desirable when time is an
important element.
Mr. DeBoers main purpose was to
contract for large allotment of Paige
cars and he had similar business in
Toledo and Cleveland. He left Mill
waukee Tuesday morning at o'clock
in a Curtiss ] n two-seated biplane,
piloted by Lieut.. II. w overly They
arrived in Toledo at 4:30 that after
noon, covering AIS miles and flying by
way of Chicago and South Bend. The
flight was made at a height of from
$500 to $500 feet in and out of clouds
and strong head and side winds were
encountered.
Mr.. DeBoer and Lieutenant Overly
hoped off from Toledo at 1915 We'd
nesday morning, arriving at the gov
eminent field in Cleveland at 11:56I
o'clock. They left Cleveland at 3:45
o'clock Wednesday afternoon, arrived
at Toledo at 5:15, left Toledo at $40
the same afternoon and arrived in a
grain field near Wyandotte at 6:25,
being unable to make out Morrow
Field, Detroit, where they had in
tended to land.

ness at the Paige factory Thursday
morning and flew back to Milwaukee

tnat though sne was my first cousin
l would not let the matter interfere

the consent of my parents. l went out

there immensely and her people were
very kind to me. When 1 came home
the correspondence was resumed, but as
line went by a funny feeling crept
INTO my heart and in the third year Of
our corresponding this feeling was great.
l just felt that l couldn't marry one
old now, and in view of the fact that
today l have a better knowledge of

of love. while he was engaged to an
other girl.
A dressmaking course would be very
good, especially II you have the talent,
but that might not occupy your mind
aH much as a course of some special
study. You might take up on the side
q library course. It's splendid study
and when o have finished in that
work you can command a good salary.
The course Is not very long and is
very interesting. You might fl your
time very full with the two courses in
this way and theh follow out whichever
one you have most aptitude for.
Your parents would not be so I'M
reasonable as to prevent % receiving
other men,. Perhaps they would be
wise enough to know something about
the men who pay attention to their
daughter, however, and another such
occurrence may be prevented. l do not
blame your parents. DO not misunder-
stand me, but I think you should tel.
them and let them judge what is best
to do.
