All the girls who attend college do
not have wealth behind them. Hun.
dreds upon hundreds OF them are
changing the work OF their brains and
hands into dollars to help out their
expenses, says the June Delineato..
The average girl could hardly earn
her entire way through college; II
would mean too great a mental and
physical strain. She can and does.
however; earn a part OF her way.
Here are actual experiences from
girls who have accomplished It:
.1 had sixty dollars I earned. This
sum was to pay for everything except
my board and tuition until Easter. I
was employed In the college library
and postofflce and can earn twenty.
five cents an hour during all my spare
time. Ninety-ave dollars covers books,
dues, clothes ana incidentnls."

REGGIE ONCE BEFORE
DESTROYED BY QUAKE.

Reggie, called Reggie di Calabria, was
the capital of the province OF the same
name. It was an archiepiscopal see
and had a population of 1900 inhabi-
tants
1t was one of the oldest settlements
in Italy, and in antiquity it's name was
Rhegium. 1t was originally a Euboean
colony, and was peopled in 1913 B.. c., by
fugitive Messenians. 1t rose to great
prosperity in the old days, but suf-
fered from war, and in 3S7 B. c., was
captured by Dionysius l., of Syracuse,
and destroyed.
1t was again captured in go by the
Romans, and it underwent many vicis-
STUDIES of conquest in the Middle Ages.
Totila, the Goth. captured it in $40 A.
D., the Saracens did likewise In 91s.
the Pisans In 1905. Robert Guiscard In
1860 and the Turks In 1862 and again
in 1897.
After the great earthquake of 1888 the
town was almost entirely rebuilt, and it
presented a more modern aspect than
some of the other towns, and had wide
streets which were studded with nu-
merous handsome villas. 1t had a beau
tiflIl cathedral, which dated from the
seventeenth century, and it possessed
numerous other handsome buildings.
among them \the Capella del Sacra-
mento, highly decorated with colored
marble; the Strada dele Caserme, and
adjacent to it the Civic Museum. which
contained a fine collection of terra
cottas, lamps, statuettes and vases.
including a few antique specimens with
curious characterization
