ODESSA RED CROSS

We have been going on with the Red
Cross work and in spite of various set
backs in the shape of illness, absence
from home, delayed materials, etc., we
have been able to complete our allot-
ment for July and August.
Our country women have come to the
front nobly in this, and as it is the
busiest time for them at home it means
great deal to give up an afternoon or
two week. If only more of the town
people could feel that they could give
US more time, we could accomplish so
much more. There are one hundred
hospital shirts asked for this month.
These are very simply made and it
takes only about an hour and half to
make one. These are at the room all
ready to be given out; also, refugee
garments for the poor little fatherless,
motherless. homeless children across
the water.
The demand for surgical dressings is
very urgent. We are informed that the
wounded are taken care of in the
American Army nearer the front than
anywhere else in ''No Mans Land"
our surgeons often risking their lives
to bandage our boys carefully and make
them more comfortable for the trip to
the base hospital. If the boys are risk
ing their lives for us, the surgeons for
the boys, isn't it a very little thing to
ask of US just to help to make the
dressings that are necessary?

Red Cross preserves and will give any,

The work shipped for the last two
months included Is sweaters, Ii muff-

WQMEN'S COLLEGE OPENS SOON

The Indications are that the Women s
College when it re-opens next week will
have the largest enrolment since it " as
started four years ago. Dean Winifred
]. Robinson is greatly encouraged over
the prospects Of an unusually large en-
tering class. The new course in agricul-
ture is expected to attract many stud
ents. Dean Robinson makes the follow
ing statement relative to the institution:
1.-The Women's CJllege of Delaware
was opened four years ago with the pur-
pose of working out problems in the edu.
cation Of women as distinct from those
involved in the education of men, and
to do this at so low rate for living ex-
penses as to make its advantages avail
able for every young woman who desires
them while its instruction and equipment
should be of the highest degree Of ex-
cellence.
"..Agriculture il one Of the felds for
vemen's wark which the war has de-
Yeloped in most democratic fashion as
is witnessed by the organization of the
Women's Land Army Of America, which
includes women from all classes Of So
ciety, in the units of women workers
now established in II States. The Wo-
mems College of Delaware, centrally
located as to the Northern and Southern
Atlantic States, and favored by climate
with long growing season, has strong
advantages for the teaching of agricul-
tqre including crop production, horti-
culture, bee-keeping, and stock raising.
The State exp 'riment farm of 209 acres
with an able staff Of instructors is with.
in ten minutes walk Of the college.
AfRliation with Delaware State College
for men makes it possible to introduce
excellent courses in farm management
and the use of farm machinery. Agri-
culture promises to have an interesting
development at the Women's College
of Delaware.
