Influx of Determined Women After the War
May Complicate American Girl's
Marriage Problem
"ntJlOit tho vast horde of foreign
i wohiert who, tho war prophets tclt Us,
toll! Invade thcuo shores after the great
onfl!ct la over In an endeavor to wrest
Ur prospective husbands from us, O Lord
deliver us I
liven as tho forty-niners went heller
Bkcltci aaross tho continent at the first
cry of "Gold" In California, so also will
these purposeful dames respond to tho
cry of "Men," good American, money-
iriuktng men, and come sailing over the
Atlantic with the pioneer determination
that brooks no Opposition.
Can we afford to let them In? Can we,
tho women of tho United States, with
mascu)fnp adulation as our heritage, and
thu right to choose ono from many, Bit
idly by and let these Interlopers, which
prognosticating tell us are coming Just
as suiely as a hot presidential election is
coming, walk right in, minimize out sup
ply of marriageable men and cast their
matrimonial nets under our very noses?
X-ol statesmen yowl and socialists howl
rtbout tho magnanimity of tho "open
door" and the necessity for unrestricted
irnmlqtatlon, but have not we some say
in the matter?
According to tho census of 1910 there
were In the United States only 108 men
to oveiy 100 women. In many of tho big
Kustorn States where the newcomeis so
luVo to take up their abode there Is al
ready if big surplus of women.
Before tho war England had over a
million more women than men. After tho
tmoko of battle has cleared, It Is cstl
ir.atcd that at least one-fourth of the
femlnlno population of tho British Isles
will have to go husbandless. Discontented
damrols who worked off their chagrin by
smashing windows and throwing bomb'
at .Prime Ministers may decide upon the
mo,e pacific activity of emigration.
In Germany, too, there is likely to be a
deplorable dearth of physically and men
tally healthy men. Will the Teutonic
maids bo content to abide In a country
where there are only the lame, the nalt
and the blind to choose from? If my
knowledge of womon is worth anything,
thoy won't if they sec a way out.
J hen wilt come tho problem for the
Amrrican women. Feminists may deny
It and disappointed women may protest,
but deep in tho breast of every woman
there is cherished the hope tlmtomo
rt'i. she wllj have a husband, a home
nhd children her very own. Will she
hUbrnlt to having tho realization of this
hoi c threatened by the Invasion of possi
ble rivals? 1 trust not, though at the
present moment, hampered as she Is by
the lack of n direct political Influence, I
do not Beo what she Is going to do
U-out It.
That hardy and daring thinker, Ellen
Kav, perhapi the most courageous femalo
feminist In the world, Is already conced
ing herself with the solution of the prob
lem that Ihe surplus of women In Europe
will bo responsible for.
"Alter the war," she writes in a recent
article In the Atlantic Monthly, "woman's
prtBU-qts from tho point of view of her
nntmal duty motherhood will bo dark,
Indeed. The number of women who will
have to dismiss all thought of marriage
nlrcady far too large Is destined to bo
come larger still."
Slip tails upon these women to be true
to themselves and their flneit Instincts;
to turn a deaf ear to tho Government
hlt.h shall try to Induce them to be tho
victims of a "national child-bearing"
crgy.
"If womon, after the war," sho write-,,
"willingly comply with tho wish for 'na
tional chlld-benlng' and 'patriotically'
support this competition, they do not de
serve anything better than that their sons
20 yearn hence shall (ill now trenches!
Let us liopo that they will not be will
ing! "If, for national reasons, woman should
become untiuo to tho highest Instincts of
her nature, which lead her to give the
race only children of love, she will sink
so deep that neither tho right to vote
nor any other rights will be able to help
her. Warning voices have already been
heard pointing out that, from a bio
logical point of view (that Is, tho tians-
mission of hereditary traits), love Is neces
sary. My intuition In this respect seems,
therefore, to be verified. What love means
to spiritual happiness every ono knows
who Is truly loved."
In the meantime, while our slsteis pre
pare to solve their problems, let us add a
clause to our litany that heaven will pro
tect us from the possibility of an Influx,
which would complicate our own quan
daries. M'LISS.

Please quote for me John B. Oouzh'a prose

by intemperance, and on" the other aide anythtnj

I should be puzzled where to look If I

be In any public library a collection of tho
works of the sreat temperance orator who
turned the heads and moved the hearts of
the American public 70 years ago the
sentences you want may be found there.
Or the phrase Is memorable enough to live

It when the mind was young and memory

Can your Corner tell me who Is the author of

And though she brought him gold and lands.
She proved a terrible plague.
If r remember rightly, there are about six
more verse to It. C. K.
"Johnny Sands" (the unlucky) was sung;
of In my girlhood's days. It Is an Kng
Uih ballad by John Sinclair. I know nothing;
of him except the name. It Is a Jolly song',
and well woll worth a revival. Can any

Furnishing a Girl's Den
As I have been a reader of jour Corner for
some time I would appreciate It If you give m
a few deas how to furnish a girl's "den."
such aa decorating the walla and general fur
nlshlngs. ji, i. jtj
To begin with, have the room "express
yourself" your taste and. to some extent,
your characteristics. Secondly, study sim
plicity and harmony. If the walls are pa
pered, let me advise that you select a neu
tral tint rather than a bright blue or pink,
or even a pale green. If there be ngurea
In the paper, have them small and Incon
spicuous, Lovely wall papers may be had
In soft grays, buffs and golden brown, plain
or with narrow lines running through them,
or In what Is known as a "tapestry ef
fect," Imitating the grain of tapestry. Do
not crowd the walls with plcureu of divers
designs. Get a few good engravings or
photographs of really fine pictures, with
here and there a group of family photo
graphs. If the floor be of hardwood, see
that you have rugs which will tone in well
v.th walls. The simpler the furniture the
batter, Do not have It look like "a Job Jot"
picked up at a bargain. Htudy comfort In
the selection of chairs and lounge. If cush
ions and seats be covered with cool linen
In summer and the windows be draped wtn
scrim or plain muslin curtains, the effect of
coolness and repope will be soothing and
pleasant. I wish I could talk to you on the
subject of haying your retreat reflect your
self. I can give but a few outlines that
rnay be pf use.

THE WOMAN WHO SEWS
Readers itho desire help uilh their dress problems will address communications
to the Fashion Expert, care 0 the Editor oS tho lroniau' I'aoc, the Evenina Lciloer,
Perhaps in the near futuro he will pop
up that hardy perennial of tho dross world
ho who without sign or warning has It
bruited about each summer that It's going
to be a white season!
But nt tho present time ho Is away, out
of town Perhaps ho Is In the trenches. At
any rate, he- isn't with us nnd the sartorial
forecast Is that wo are going to hnve a
riotous, orgiastic summer of wonderful
colors.
The shops do not belle this prognostica
tion. Marvelous cottonH have taken on all
the colorful designs of the old oriental hIIIch,
Perhaps It Is because cotton Is primarily an
American product and the boogey-boo of the
war and restricted Importations do not
apply to It, that It threatens to be king of
summer materials; but It Is here In all Its
glory and In such soul-satlsfylng mixtures
of pigment that one finds it dilllcult to
realize there Is a dje famine on.
Of course, this cotton de luxo Is not al
ways Inexpensive. I saw a wonderful dress
goods pattern the other day In tascinntlng
blue tints as loely as any brocade which
sold for J1.50 a yard, which la a price that
might be described ns "steep" for cotton.
But more and more, heaven be thanked,
the world is becoming willing to pay for
workmanship,
Dear Madam What kind of a girdle would
you sussest to wear with a flesh pink olle
gown? It Is ery simply made, with a ruh
tucked skirt and an old-faahloned basque bodice,
with peplum. I do not want to get silk.
Also, what kind of a hat would ou wear
with this sort of an outlltT MARY.
A very expensive model seen recently
was made something llke you describe,
with a girdle of old blue Velvet about two
Inches wide. The effect was very dainty,
for the velvet was caught at one side with
a loop of tiny moss roses, hanging In long
streamers from this almost to tho hem of
the skirt. This would be serviceable, be
cause you could use it on other frocks
A broad-brimmed leghorn with summer
flowers and od blue velvet bandeau would
look charming.
Dear Madam I have a fairly large white
shape that I want to trim In some simple and
Inexpensive way. What would you advise me
to use? I wanted a painted hat. but these are
too expensive for me. Your advice will be ap
preciated O. R B
Why not simulate a painted hat by cov
ering It with flowered chiffon? Or you can
applique designs of chintz or cretonne. A
white grosgraln bandeau and tailored bow
Is Inexpensive and attractive.
Dear Madam .What Is the best method to
wash glne silk undergarments? I have tried
several times to get a reliable system but none
seems to work, and I And tlu articles themselves
getting yellower and yellower after each Immer
sion. WEST PHILADELPHIA,
Wash tho garments In tepid water, using
Hoap without any caustic in It, If you can
get this White castllo or any good white
soap will answer. If tho silk la white, use
a pinch of borax In the vvter. Avoid nm
monla, however. This la what has prob
ably turned your silk yellow. Pink does
not need anything but soap and water. Let
the garments stand In the borax water for
about 20 minutes, rubbing between the hands
frequently. Rinse In two waters, run
through tho wringer. Hang out ; when half
dry take them in nnd spread them on a
clean sheet, iron with a fairly cool Iron,
with a clean piece of cloth or paper be
tween tho nrtlclc and tho Iron.
Dear Madam I am going away for a two
weeks' VHCHtlon to the seashore. I have sev
eral good dresses for afternoon nnd evening
wear Hnd don't want to go to any expense for
morning outfits. What would sou advise me to
get for general wear? I am tall and light and
rather thin. K l,, k
A few dainty shirtwaists and several
pretty white skirts will do you for the morn
ings. White keeps clean a long time at tho
seashore, and I am sure you can find plenty
of moderately priced articles In the shops.
A silk sweater, low white shoes and sports
hat will complete tho costume.

Z. J. Pequignot
Picture to yourself a student's room a
decidedly feminine student, for there are
at leant six photographs of joung gentle
men around the walls. Set at one siue oi
the room a bookcase full of scientific vol
umes. II. O Welts In rtermnn nnd Shake
speare In calf-bound editions On the large
table Is placed a bowl of white and pink
peonies, a vane of Rnapdragon Is on the
mantelpiece! In the centre of Ihe room, re
clining In a comfortable armchair, the fair
owner herself nnd ou have the, Ameri
can home of Miss or, rather, Doctor Ger
trude Loewensteln, of Stuttgart, Germany.
Throe years airo, just before the outbreak
of tho war, this young girl enmo over to
America to study dentlstr at Temple Uni
versity. Two clays ago she received her
degree from that college, and In two weeks
she Is going back to her own home to take
her sharo In the groat work that women are
doing over there.
In her Norfolk sports suit of white flan
nel, her fair skin and hair accentuating the
blueness of her eyes, she looked the typical
German girl as Americans have been ac
customed to nlcturn her.
"How did I come to select Philadelphia?"
sho repeated smilingly "Why, In Germany
everybody looks on Philadelphia as a den
tal centre. This city Is famous for Its
dental progress No, I didn't spealt a word
of English when I enmo over here, nnd I
never took a lesson " A thing which It Is
hard to believe when ono hears her perfect
pronunciation, for her accent Is slight
enough to he delicious, and her command
of words.
"Then, too, American women have so
much llhci ty much more thnn n German
girl. My sister, who Is studying medicine
In Germany, has not half tho freedom I
hnve over here, and my pareots are more
liberal In their views than the average Gor
man father or mothex Is.
"No, I never got lonesome! I had too much
to do. Dentistry Is very hard j It means
constant study nnd lots of practical work, I
went homo one summer tho summer tho
war broke out. I mannged to get back by
way of Holland, but I have not been homo
since. I get my homo mall all right. If one
considers It all right to have It three months
late and censored," she concluded
A study of conditions In Germany at
present shows the deplorable lack of pre
ventive dentistry measutes In the lower
classes In Germany, Doctor Loewensteln
declares
"The poor people over there would rather
suffer with toothache until their teeth drop
out than pny a dentist," she said. "They
don't know that two trips a year to a re
liable dentist will keep the bills down for
many years. It Is this spirit that the Gov
ernment Is trying to combat. They have
a dentnl expert connected with every public
school and have plenty of free clinics be
side. I nm particularly Interested In chil
dren. "Tho mnn dentist Isn't Inclined to bo
patient and gentle with children. Any
womnn dentist will tell you this. A man
would rather loso a child patient than be
bothered with petting and coaxing him.
Why, when I have children to treat I
tell them fairy talcs. They listen to tho
tales with such attention that their mouths
naturally fall wide open, and you wouldn't
bellevo It, but some of them don't even know
what I am doing. I am going to specialize
In children's work."
Tho question pf wnr xvork nnd dental
treatment among tho soldiers is not of In
terest to Doctor Loewensteln at present. She
nn3 ueciueu uoUDts about the way her Amer
ican degree will bo received.
"I expect that my American degree will
probably bar me from doing war work," she
says "But there Is so much to do among
the women and children tho latter espe
cially that I don't care about tho war part
of It. Now la the time when women can
accomplish most In Germany It is really
! v U
MISS GERTRUDE LOWENSTEIN
the golden opportunity for us, and, of
course, 1 Intend to take advantage of It.
"I am expecting a certain amount of de
lay on my return trip home. I shall be In
terned seveinl clays In England, although I
nm going by tho Norwegian Line Then
when I get near the German frontier I have
to undress and tnko my hair down, nnd
show every kind of certificate you can Imag
ine, nnd all my belongings ns well before
I can bo nllowed to enter. If I weren't a
woman I couldn't get Into Germany at all."
The Locust
-A Locust fell.
It fell upon the Mnlden's robe.
And feebly there It stood, recovering slow,
The admiring girl surveyed
The outspread sails of green
Ills gauzy undcrvvlngs,
One closely to the grass-green body furled,
Ono ruffled In the fall, nnd half unclosed.
Sho viewed his Jet-orbed eyes.
Ills glossy gorget bright,
Green glittering In the sun,
Ills plumy pliant hotns.
That nearer ns sho gazed
Dent tremblingly before her breath.
