Argall of Brooklin, 1828 Maiden Aspired to Svelte and Swoons We look back with amazement and pity at the woman of 1828, it is said, but, says the London Daily News, we look with admiration also, for it is lout of their dreaming and striving that our freedom has come, Poor Miss 1828 offers a striking contrast between the young women of that day and those of the present year, Look at her standing there in her stuffy thick clothing, her hideous frilled "pelisse" with its puffed sleeves, her face hidden by an un- gainly flapping bonnet "as large as an umbrella." She has been ground- ed in the principles of religion and morality. Her head is stuffed with Mangnall's questions, her fingers are sore with working "samplers," her body is stiff with that strange cult known as "deportment." She is just sixteen years old and ready to "come out" to a life of so cial and domestic inanition, When she dances, it is to pace soberly through the measures of a minuet or the quadrilles, for she has mot yet been introduced to the "sprightly polka" or the glamorous waltz. Lit- tle wonder that she breaks the mono- tony of her days by occasional fits of hysteria or a graceful swoon. She had her vanities, poor dear-- her looks were one of her few in- terests. She was as of corpulence us. i Lor modern sister. Rosy, flesh cheeks were common, and she deprived herself of adequate food for fear of growing fat and "material" » PRINCE QUITS CHICKEN FARM AND RETUBNS 70 DENMARK Arcadia, Calif., May Eric of Denmark has definitely his prosaic role of chick- en farmer, and has left with his wife, the former Frances Lois Booth, of Ottawa, Ont., and in- fant daughter, for his ancestral halls in Europe.

Its one or two small hotels are already chocked from the swollen streams of peasants which have come from every nook and corner of Rumania. Many of these pilgrims left their ; es weeks ago. They are sleep- ing in: their clothes in the streets, highways and parks, of them are illiterate, but upon the pledge of Juliu Maniu, leader of their party, to give them a better Government, they emerged from the eastern lethargy in which rural Rumapia has slept for centur- ies to lend their voices to a wide- spread demand for a change in the regime of Bucharest. 250000 Expected . Despite the Goyernment's action in requisitioning all automobiles, re- ducing the mumber of trains and ioierposing every form of impedi- t success of the congress, Maniu declared that by S day 250, 000 peasants would have found their way to Alba Julia. In order mot to concentrate the entire attention of the country on this city, however, five smaller gatherings of peasants will be held simultancously am Bucharest, Jassy, Craiova, Cernauti and Braila. g "I hope that I am too good a citiz- en and patriot of Rumania to allow the peasants to start anything like a revolution which might drench the country in blood," Maniu told a cor- respondent of the Associated Press. "The congress on Sunday has no such se. Its main object is to give ampression in mighty and un- mistakable tones of disgust of 85 per cent of the population of Ru- mania toward the present illegal, tyranical, incompetent Government, whose overthrow congress will de- THINKS The period has again arrived-- the leap year, 1928--when women have the opportunity to provide themselves with the initial step to the marriage state; that is, they can propose if they wish to, while man has the monopolized privilege the other three years, according to the traditional. custom of "woeing." During the last summer, says the Washington Sunday Star, Mrs. Bor- den Harriman and Dorothy ®Dix an- ticipated the leap year season when women may usually hit the court- ship trail, and advised the girls to "go to it" mow and not wait. In leap year reflections it might be recalled that woman proposes in other lands, and even in our own country, as in the case of the Hopi Indian maiden of Arizona. She "dolls up" and says she is going a- courting. In a number of countries women have the privilege of choos- ing their own husbands, as in by- 1iMES, MONDAY, MAY 7, 1928 gone days in India, and there is one country where a girl may express her preference for a man by present ing him with a bottle of spirits, If she is afraid that her procedure has not the sanction of her parents she may lower the fluid at night from her chamber window, It is thought that the women of the ancient Egyp- tians had the privilege of selecting their husbands. Margaret Olmstead, of the Lucy Stone League, says the time, is near at hand "when it will be entirely ethical amd become the custom for the fair sex to 'pop the question'-- the last step in the modern woman's complete emancipation." It is sug- gested that "woman fills now any position hitherto held by man alone." She can now ask for any job that a man can ask for, It has not been customary in the past for her to make application for one position-- that of wife. LIKENESS BETWEEN US. AND GERMANY Dr. Schurman Tells of Simi- larity in Aims of Two Countries Berlin, May 7~"During the three years in which I' have been Ambas- sador from the United States to Ger- many, I have beem constantly and increasingly impressed with the simi- larity of the fundamental interna- tional ideals of the governments and peoples of our two countries," de- clared Dr, Jacob Gould Schurman on receiving his honorary degree from the vencrable University of Heidel- berg on Friday, A plain-spoken and undiplomatic layman would probably have put it that at the present mo- ment the national interest of no great power coincides so closely with those of the United States as Germany's, As proof of this statement, Dr, Stresemann's note to Secretary Kel- logg last week could be cited. Ger- many, witli 'a promptness and alacrity that annoyed several European states, accepted first of all the powers the proposal to outlaw war. She indorsed it without conditions and without res- ervations. On every point at issue between Paris and Washington, the German Government sided with the State Department, Since the war no nation has done as much to promote the cause of peace and disarmament as Germany. She first proposed and then excepted the Treaty of Locarno whereby she voluntarily agreed to accept for all time her western boundaries as drawn by the Treaty of Versailles and to renounce all claim to Alsace:Lorraine, For the first time in history a beat- en nation, of its own accord, for- swore any intent to attempt to regain the provinces lost as a result of an unsuccessful war, Germany is also the first of the great powers to ac- cept the optional clause in the statute affecting the permanent court of in- ternational Justice at The Hague whereby she agreed to arbitrate all the disputes without exceptions of any kind with any state that similarly adopts this clause, : Has Taken Lead At the disarmament conference of the League of Nations, Germany has taken the lead in agitating for a uni- versal reduction of armed forced Germany's views on Article X of the League of Nations' Covenant resem- ble America's. Upon entering the League this country stipulated that she would not take part in any League expedition designed te coerce a fractious League member, nor per mit such army to enter her territory. Germany, like the United States. and unlike France, .regards the methods for peaceful adjustments of interna- tional disputes and not piling up sanc- tions as the best means of preventing war, Senator Borah might have written this sentence; "The security problem essentially must be considered in a peaceful settlement of all kinds of na- tional disputes. If instead one takes as a point of departure the outbreak of war and the regulation of military sanctions, then such attempt can be compared to building a house {from the roof down." This statement, however, proceeds not from the pen of the Chairman of the Senate For- cign Relations Committee, but from some +civil servant in the Wilhelm- strasse, It is contained in the Ger- man Government's memorandum on security for the League of Nations disarmament commission, It breathes the spirit of the Root arbitration pacts and the Bryan cooling off treaties, instead of elaborating sanc- tions devised by the fertile brain of Paul Boncour, The Frenchman would probably retort that Germany's alac- rity in accepting the outlawry of the war proposal is due to the fact that she has disarmed and is without al- liances and that therefore she has everything to gain and nothing to lose by acceding to the Kellogg pro- posal, Fundamental Reason It is possible, however, that there is a deeper and more fundamental reason for the similarity of the Amer- ican and German policies. Probably more than any other country in Eu- rope, Germany has become the busi- nessman's country, The industrial movement that first gained an im- petus here after the war of 1870, has now carried everything before it, Be- fore the war junker and soldier were in the saddle in Germany.
