 vide the best set table, not to mention

 nay be sure that she need never depend
 on the tender mercies of iitneys or o.h-
 CT public conveyances on her way to
 and from her place of employment. It is just one of those things that are hard to understand For the nursery governess or skilled child's nurse gets tather more than the average office
 worker and she has besides board and keep, including laundry and practically all incidental expenses. And this short age of baby nurseries is quite serious affair, for babies are no respectors of labor conditions and continue to make their entrance on the scenes as frequent ly as ever. And say what you will, there is quite a lor besides mother instinct" to do with bringing a baby up past the reefs and shoals of baby ills and acci- dents. 1t is much like trimming hats.
 You may have a knack for it, but you cannot be expert until you have lit- tie practice.
 There are baby hospitals and orphan asylums in various places-every large city has several such-where young wom- en can be- trained in a years time to go out as skilled baby nurses or nursery maids They are under no expense while tralnlng, and after that time are secure in their experiences and their diploma.
 But these training schools are really
 crippled by lack of young girls to take training.
 In one of the training schools con- nected with a large hospital there are at
 the present time two young women just through boarding school whose estab-
 lished family fortunes put them well above the possibility of having to sup pert themselves Apparently 1t is with
 the conviction that they will before long
 oe married and raise a family that they are now putting in hard hours of work and study to the end that they may be- come efficient to care for their own chill dren Then, when baby nurses fail they will be able ot assure these responsibili- ties themselves without the nerve rack that so often accompanies it when the young women who have depended only on
 mother instinct attempt the responsi- bility.

present day no more doubt is possible as to the intentions of the enemy. Will those who have been talking con- tinually of reconciliation and of the peace by understanding, now at last confess frankly that they have mis- judged the enemy. and, after the events of the revolution, that they have misjudged mankind in general, and that the world is not vet ripe for such lessons?
 The German people have gradually realized the futility of this ideali5m. On February 3. 1919. after the victory of the government troops in Bremen, Vorwarts wrote:

But opposition to force does not mean that we must suffer wirh- out resistance every oct of violence on the part of our opponents. The love of peace can only be maintained when it is met by similar sentiments.
