D. RUMANIAN STUDIES By W. J. ENTWISTLE AS it is unfortunately necessary to supply this chapter editorially, fi occasion will be taken to mention some recent works which were excluded from the review of last year, as well as those of the current period.

The ethnic resemblances of Albanians and Rumanians, and the continuity of certain phono­ logical developments (as of Lat. -ct-) are important elements in his discussion. The original home he holds to be Serbia, Kossovo, parts of Bulgaria, and as far as Akkerman on the Black Sea.
