German ChemistsSurpassed

in certain proportions, and the two
gases are then compressed by ordi-
nary pumps, first to 100 atmospheres
and then to 200. They are then
taken in hand by new compressor
and compressed up to 900 atmos-
pheres which was formerly consi0-
cred impossible for industrial pur-
poses.
1t is asserted that whereas, by the
German method, not more than from
10 to II per cent Of the gaseous
mixture is transformed into am
monia, the result of the higher
pressure used by N. Claude is to
transform more than three times
that amount. The high pressure,
moreover, enables the manufactured
ammonia to be handled Immediately
in liquid form, which is not possible
with the German method. NJ. Claude
is now able to turn out ton and a
half Of ammonia daily, correspond
ing to seven tons Of sulphate of am
monia, with a plant which is equal
to only onc-thirtieth Of that used to
obtain a similar output by the enor-
nous Badische' works at Oppau.
NJ. Claude, according to the
Matin, contemplates furnishing the
French farmer with the manure he
needs in the form of chloride of
ammonia rather than in the form
Of the sulphate. This will render
possible the utilization of the enor-
nous quantities of chloride which
are produced in the manufacture of
soda; in other words, to double the
output Of nitrates by. the new
process, because, thanks to it, the
two great industries of nitrate and
soda production can now be directed
to the same object. The enormous
increase in the productivity of the
French agriculturist that will be
rendered possible by the develop
ment of the new discovery Is Of tho
utmost Importance.

the more painful to the Teuton as it
falls in the field of chemistry, where
they believe themselves to be su-
perior to any other nation. The
Paris correspondent of The London
Post writes:
1t is generally understood that the
Germans, in spite of the Allied
blockade, were able to continue
their resistance for over four years
largely because they succeeded dur
ing the war in discovering a means
Of extracting nitrates from the air,
and thereby were rendered inde-
pendent Of imported supplies Of this
indispensable ingredient for eXplo-
slves and agricultural manurcs. In
the German, or Haber, process, as
It Is called an essential feature is
the compression Of ammonia in
tubes at 4 pressure Of about go
atmospheres, and as the German
chemists were convinced that it is
impossible, without danger, to utilize
higher pressure than 250 atmos-
/ phcres. the production of nitrates
from the air has proved somewhat
costly and restricted in quantity.

NJ. Georges Claude, has just given

people, of new process discovered

Geraldine Farrar's Advice
Young women with ambition along
r'usical lines will turn to the de-
scription of the opera singers job
by Geraldine Farrar:
"Occupation as an opera singer in

later. That was the outlook of
domestic science.
However, the field has grown. We
all know that in general way. In
Careers for Women, a group of pro-
fessions listed as "Home Economics
Services" includes the cafeteria
manager, canning and preserving
of home products, the dietitian, di-
rector of a clothing center, extension
work under the Smith-Iever act.
extension work in home economies,
the health instructor in foods, the
home demonstration agent, preven-
tive work through dietetics in social
service, the restaurant manager, the
tearoom manager, the textile field
as a career for women and the visit
ing housekeeper.
This variety has come out Of the
simple business of cooking. The last
catches the eye. The name at least
seems to signify something new.
The article describing the profess
sion of "The Visiting Housekeeper"
was written by Emma A. Winslow,
secretary Of the Committee on Home
Economics Of the New York Charity
Organization and lecturer on
household arts at Teachers College,
Columbia University.
The Visiting Housekceper
"Within the last few years has
come an increasing realization of
the value Of personal service to
families with reference to home
making problems" says the article
"Such service is of two types, edu-
cational service and what might be
described as emergency or remedial
service"
From the description of the job
it would seem that the visiting
housekeeper goes to the homes of
the poor people and helps them with
the improvement Of their homes.
She usually has a class for general
instruction, and then besides gives
individual attention to some cases.
The volume contains resumes Of
professions more unusual than that
of the visiting housekeeper, how
ever. Carrie L. Morse describes the
occupation Of the woodcarver. An
interesting note with regard to this
kind Of work is that the writer says
"This vocation is not remunerative
Of living wage"

How a Detective Works

The young woman whose ambition
to do detective work holds over from
her days of tracking or "tattling" on
little brother will be interested in
the description of this line by
George L. Oakes.
"The work of detective Is not
only civil and criminal investiga-
ton, but includes what is termed
Shadow work. j. e., following and
watching your party What could
have been better training than the
trailing of little brother?
1T is quite hazardous calling"
continues Miss Oakes, "and yet
women make better detectives than
men when adapted for the work. A
woman can get into many places
where a man cannot"
Another calling which some women
have followed successfully is that
of the drug grower" Mary f..
Buck says Of this work:
Drug growing up to the present
has not been undertaken by many
women, though to my mind it is par
ticularly 'womans job as the
work is light, only occasional day
labor by a man being necessary.
zone woman is able to care for,
with the exception Of transplanting
and harvesting in the fall, one acre
of the four most valuable and profit
able plants, namely, ginseng, golden
seal, snake root and spigelia.
"The only way in which to learn
the business Is to come in actual
contact with the cultivation of the
plants. Women desiring to enter
the business and afraid to risk their
capital will do we'll to obtain a
years experience by securing work
in the garden of an experienced
grower of drugs"

sical taste, graceful department and
a certain amount of puichritude
supplemented by vigorous health
and unlimited capacity for work"
Sne does not mention anything Of
the financial return.
We learn from this volume that
women may aspire to the position of
museum director. Nina Stevens, of
the Toledo Museum of Art, Toledo,
Ohio, believes that the field FOR
women in museum work is WIDEN
ing. In some cases they are very
we'll paid.
"A few women acting as museum
directors and many other women
holding museum positions are paid
from $4,000 to $4,000 a year."
In Scientific Lines
An interesting list Of professions,
though one which seems somewhat
formidable, is that under the head
ing, Scientific Work" The bac-
teriologist, the geologist, the medi-
cal research worker, the paper
chemist, the pharmacist, the
physicist, the plant pathologist
and the psychologist are represented
in this group.
Miss Filene herself writes about
the work Of the vocational adviser
in colleges. She holds this position
at Wheaton College.
This reference book on women's
possible careers is one Of the most
extensive works of the kind ever
published. In fact, it is probably
the first and only book so far con-
tanning anything like the same
amount of information for girls am
bilious for careers.
"This compilation is the result Of
the demand for vocational informa-
ton to help the youth Of the country
in its choice Of life career" says
Miss Filene.
Our principal objection to the
work is that it draws a sex line.
While offering a reference book on
vocations and professions, why need
it have been limited to women? A
more thoroughgoing book might have
been gotten out had the most sue
cessful person in any one of the given
lines discussed his or her work. In
stead Of getting a woman to write
on her profession, simply because
she was woman and not because
she was the most successful or most
respected worker in her line, the au-
thor has placed limitations upon the
ambitious girls who read the book.
Might Learn From Men
There are many things which the
girls who would have careers might
learn from big men in some Of the
lines represented in the book. And
number Of professions have been
left out of the book entirely, simply
because, it would seem, the author
knew Of no woman who had made
! even fair success at them 1t is far
from the spirit Of Miss Filene's work
to assume anything so reactionary as
that women need not consider pro-
fessions which no women have ever
held heretofore. Besides, with a
slight change in attitude she could
have made the book interesting and
valuable to boys as well as to girls.
Even as it is, an ambitious boy
might find few suggestions to his
benefit in running through the book.

in these professions is not quoted as
being phenomenally high, but the
amount which a successful woman
may make in any Of them is said to
be something around $4,000 or $l2,-
900 year Ida May Park, of Los
Angeles, writing of "The Motion
Picture Director" states that the
financial return is unlimited.
"a thousand dollars a week is
small income for director. 1t might
we'll be called minimum. There is
no maximum"
Well, we all might have known
that, as commonly believed, the big
gest money is in the movies.
On the other hand, we learn from
this book that the school teacher,
whose low salary has been so much
bemoaned in the last few years, is
by no means the lowest paid among
women workers, and by that we mean
trained women workers.
Nurses Poorly Paid
Beside the profession of wood
carver, which does not bring its fol-
lower a living, nurses are poorly
paid; that is, those startiRg in hos
pitals. The hostess or housemother r
in dormitOrics and other institutions
sometimes gets only $500 a year;
children's librarians get from
SS40 to $4,000 a year. Statistical
clerks, settlement workers, women in
reformative work, lawyers making
their start, factory inspectors and
others receive salaries or make less
in fees than most scnool teachers.
For those who would follow work
which never Gives promise Of great
financial return we quote Mrs. Henry
K. Wingate on the work of the mis-
sionary:

The day has come when all truly
up-to-date persons ask this question
of little sister as we'll. It remains
for some cartoonist, preferably q
woman, to list these queer girlhood
ambitions.
Women have taken themselves to
nearly every imaginable occupation.
However, the ambitions of childhood
seldom are those of the mature man
or woman. Circumstance and change
of taste swerve the trend toward
other lines than those the little per-
son imagines he or she would want.
Later college days are the hours
when ambitions begin to direct the
practical working toward a career.
Field Has Widened
Whereas the woman Of q few
years ago had only a few lines to
consider, the field Of her choice has
become 50 widened as to be almost
confusing. With young men 1t has
been taken for granted that they
would "be" something from their
earliest days. Many of them have
the questions settled for them most
simply by following their fathers
footsteps. Once in while when
there is no son in the family the
daughter carries on her fathers
work. But as yet there are few am
bitions in her family for the daugh-

young women of to-day may have a
great time choosing the field they
will enter.
An interesting guide or encyclo-
pedia of the many lines of work open
to them has been compiled by Cath
crime Filene. 1t is called Careers
for Women, and has been published
BY the Houghton Mif1in Company.
There is something about everything
that women can do in the business
world in this volume. Each article is

found success in the line about which

Proofs of Success

One hundred and sixty-one women,
representing success in 161 lines of
work, have written resumes of the
requirements for their jobs. They
themselves are inspiration for the
young women who may turn to their
articles, because each of them is a
proof that women can succeed in
each of these careers. From poultry
raising to grand opera, from photog-
raphy to politics, this catalog by
Miss Filene carries the ambitious
woman reader.
Many of the limited fields of few
years ago have branched out and
become intensely interesting from
the data recorded here. Take home
economies. When domestic science
was first put on the curriculum Of
high schools and colleges most girls
took it just for an easy subject and
because it was novelty. There were
also advantages in being able to
carry choice bits of their own cook
Ing out after class to the boys wait
ing with a consciously nonchalant
manner in the corridors. Mothers
approved of the course because they
hoped, with this new aspect of cook
ing, they might win some help in
the management Of their own homes.
Fathers approved because it seemed
an encouragement in the domestica-
ton Of daughters, thing for which
fathers always have been and always
will be strongly inclined.
