# Marie Schmidt

Marie Schmidt (born Marie Kuhn; 10 February 1895 – 14 June 1971) was a German political activist and politician. (KPD). During the politically dead-locked period directly before the Hitler government took power in Berlin she became a Communist member of the parliament ("Landtag") of the People's State of Hesse ("Volksstaat Hessen").

## Biography
### Provenance and early years

Marie Kuhn was born in Egelsbach, at that time a small town a short distance to the north of Darmstadt. Her mother was Elizabeth. Her father Heinrich Kühn (1849–1929) was a farmer who became the father of seven daughters: Marie was the sixth. On 23 April 1914 Marie Kuhn married the plasterer Adolf Theodor Schmidt (1890–1943).

### Politics

During the war, which broke out a little more than three months later, Marie and Adolf Schmidt were both deeply involved with the "proletarian" peace movement. She was an early member of the Communist Party of Germany which in 1918/19 emerged from it. In her home community, she was elected to become a member of the Egelsbach local council. She also made her mark across Hesse more widely, gaining a reputation as an effective and aggressive public speaker representing the Hesse Communist Party, and acquiring the soubriquet "Rote Marie" ("Red Mary").
During 1931/32, Schmidt served as one of just three women members of the 70-seat Hesse state parliament ("Landtag"). Having secured her seat in the election of 15 November 1931 she made just one brief speech in the chamber. That was in February 1932 when she contributed to a debate over a government bill.
In March 1933, following the National Socialist take-over in January 1933, Schmidt and her husband were arrested in the aftermath of the Reichstag fire. They were detained for several weeks and then released. Under the dictatorship the Communist Party and political activism were banned. After 1945, Schmidt, by now a widow, rejoined the Communist Party, but with Communism now seen increasingly as a proxy for Soviet expansionist ambitions the party no longer enjoyed significant support in what became, in 1949, the German Federal Republic (West Germany). Marie Schmidt withdrew from public political engagement. Nevertheless, after the Communist Party had been banned by the West German Constitutional Court in 1956, and then, as Cold War concerns began to recede, quietly relaunched with a new name in 1968, Marie Schmidt (re)joined the "new" party.

### Theo

The couple's son Theo evidently shared their political convictions. In 1934, he fled to the Saarland which remained under French military occupation. That meant there was little likelihood of close surveillance or sudden arrest by the German Security Services. In 1936, Theo went to Spain to fight for the "antifascist" International Brigades and was killed in 1937 during the fighting for Taragona.

### Later years

After the death of her husband in 1943, Schmidt worked in a Frankfurt post office. She moved to live with her daughter Margot in nearby Neu-Isenburg in 1945. It was here that in 1971 she died.

The House of Drevitsky (Russian: Дом Древицкого) is an ancient mansion in Taganrog (Street of Frunze, 23), a monument of architecture of the 1840s. Treated architecture monuments, is among objects of cultural heritage of the Russian Federation under a code No.6101267000.

## History and description

The two-storeyed mansion was built in the style of neoclassicism. On a facade in both floors on 6 windows. In Interflora space under windows, there were bas-reliefs with the image of the lion's heads. Rooms were equipped with graceful fireplaces. Ceilings were decorated by a molding.

From 1912 to 1925 the mansion belonged to Drevitsky's successors.
In 1925 the house was nationalized and divided into communal flats. Without due leaving the house decayed and by the end of the 1980s residents were moved out, and the house stayed in critical condition. In 1991 the house was transferred to the Taganrog fish processing plant (director N. I. Demyanenko). Local inhabitants called the ruined remains of the house "count ruins".

# Port Charlotte, Islay

Port Charlotte (Scottish Gaelic: Port Sgioba) is a village on the island of Islay in the Inner Hebrides, Scotland. It was founded in 1828. In 1991 it had a population of 350.
On 24 September 1828 the foundation stone of the pier was laid at a fete attended by 4,000 of Walter Frederick Campbell's tenants. Port Charlotte was named after Lady Charlotte Campbell Bury, the mother of its founder Walter Frederick Campbell; and it was set up mainly to provide housing facilities for the Lochindaal Distillery work force.
By 1833 a chapel had been built in the village which was in use but far from complete.
In 1846 contractors were invited to construct a quay at Port Charlotte, which was funded by Thomas Pattison, Distiller of Octomore and designed by Mr. Pitbladdo of Bridgend and this was completed by 1848.
Parts of the former distillery buildings are now in use as Youth Hostel and Wildlife Centre. Others are currently used by a garage nearby. The remaining warehouses are currently owned and used by Bruichladdich distillery to mature their Port Charlotte heavily peated spirit, named in tribute to the village and original distillery.
The village is located on the shores of Loch Indaal and is very picturesque with its white-painted houses. It is home to the Museum of Islay Life which is located in a former Church building.
In October 1813, the American privateer The True Blooded Yankee captured six merchant ships lying at Port Charlotte, casting them adrift and setting fire to three.

# Mary Stormont

Mary Elizabeth Stormont (nee Sapsworth; 2 January 1871 – 11 October 1962) was a British painter.

## Life

Mary Elizabeth Sapsworth was born in London, England on 2 January 1871. She was the daughter of George Sapsworth, leather merchant, and Elizabeth Deur, and elder sister to Katherine Emma Maltwood.
She married Howard Gull Stormont, an artist, in 1898, against the wishes of her parents. The couple eloped to Rye. They lived in Ypres Studio, Rye, East Sussex and they became the focus in Rye for visiting artists. In the 1920s she was a founder member of the Rye Art Club (under the patronage of author Henry James). The Rye Society of Artists continues the ethos and traditions of the founder members to this day.
She exhibited throughout her life, showing regularly at many locations, notably the Royal Academy, the Bruton Galleries (London), Walker Art Gallery (Liverpool), Royal Institute and the Ridley Art Club (Grafton Galleries). She first exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1899 with an oil painting, A wayside inn. In the following year she exhibited both an oil painting and a watercolour. She continued to exhibit in at least 17 Royal Academy Exhibitions, her last being in 1940.
She was especially sought after for her flower paintings but also painted interiors and landscapes.
   The water colour drawing, Dimant-Sur-Meuse, which we give this month as a coloured supplement, well represents the colours of Mrs. Mary Stormont,…Apart from the excellence of the handling and the very good colour, the originality of this composition contributes not a little to its charm.
As well as a painter, Stormont was an accomplished photographer. She chose women on the land and beaches around Rye as her subjects.
   Observing women at work in a narrative context is a returning theme throughout her photographic work to date. She wants to tell visual stories in long form photo journalistic essays, sometimes shot over a period of years by returning to the same place or through exploring unexpected common links between people from different places.
After her husband died in 1935 Stormont continued to live in Ypres Studio. In 1957 she founded the Rye Art Gallery Trust to promote interest in art through lessons, lectures and exhibitions.
She died in Battle, Sussex on 11 October 1962 and was buried in Rye. On her death she bequeathed Ypres Studio, approximately 100 art works, and money to the Rye Gallery Trust. The Ypres Studio became The Rye Art Gallery and opened in 1965. The works she donated form the core of its permanent collection, which is housed in The Stormont Studio of the Rye Art Gallery. The permanent collection includes works by artists associated with Rye, such as Edward Burra and Paul Nash, and also a portrait of her painted by George James Coates.
# Willows High School

51°29′02″N 3°08′13″W﻿ / ﻿51.484°N 3.137°W﻿ / 51.484; -3.137 Willows High School (Welsh: Ysgol Uwchradd Willows) is a secondary school located in the Tremorfa area of Cardiff, Wales. It caters for pupils aged 11 to 16 and is English-medium. As of September 2015, the headteacher is Chris Norman. He succeeded Joy Ballard, under whom the proportion of pupils attaining five A*-C grades rose from 14% to 50%. In recent years, Willows has been oversubscribed for pupils.

## History

The school site is extensive and dates from the late 1960s, and was built on the site of the World War II airfield RAF Pengam Moors. The school is named after the air balloon pioneer Ernest Willows who had his airfield on the site.
Many of the buildings have since been modernised. There are plans to continue this modernisation in the future, including with a PFI agreement as part of plans by Cardiff Council. A completely new building is planned, which could be located in nearby Tremorfa Park. The site proposed originally included St. Alban's Primary School, which was slated to close. However, in 2019 the closure was successfully petitioned, and stopped in 2020.
The school featured in the 2015 Channel 4 documentary series Educating Cardiff. This detailed every aspect of school life, and also highlighted many of the improvements the school has made in recent years.
Starting in 2015, Willows participated in the South Wales Challenge (SWC) Initiative, sharing best-practice in education with Tonyrefail School, Rhondda Cynon Taf. This aimed to help the school to improve academic standards further.

## Estyn Inspections

In 2012, Estyn rated the school as "unsatisfactory", reporting that it needed "significant improvement". The inspectors reported that, although pupils often had unsatisfactory English grammar and literacy skills, leadership was "adequate" and there were real prospects of improvement. The school substantially improved after this, and by 2014 no longer requires significant improvement. However, the more recent 2018 has found there are still many aspects of school life that could be improved, particularly in the methods of teaching and leadership. Despite this, the school had improved enough that in 2019 it was removed from monitoring by Estyn.
There were 586 pupils at the school during the 2018 Estyn inspection, a significant drop since the 2012 inspection. The proportion of pupils receiving free school meals is 44%, which is much higher than the national average of 17.4%. Almost two-thirds of the pupils live in the 20% most deprived areas in Wales. Around 8% of pupils have English as an additional language. Twenty-nine per cent of the pupils come from minority ethnic backgrounds.
