Mr. Carpenter visits an old church in Transylvania with the wife and daughter of our American minister to Bucharest. Inside this edifice are hundreds of valuable Turkish prayer rugs reminders of the days when the Crescent rode high over Central and Eastern Europe to the gates of Vienna A Roumanian rig. N.G. ; Roumanian schoolgirls want to know about "flappers". They too are feeling the wave of feminine emancipation that has captured even that man's stronghold---Constantinople.

Photographs show scenes in Romania including: Mr. Carpenter and family of American minister to Romania, Peter Augustus Jay, in front of a church door in Transylvania; a horse-drawn carriage and a group of school girls wearing hats.
