SCHOOL GIRLS
HUSK CORN CROP
State Normal School Students Com
plete 1852 Shocks For Cap
tain Ridgely

In a response to a call for volun-
teers the students of the Maryland
State Normal School, Towson, Bali
more county, covered themselves with
high honors last Saturday by helping
to husk the corn crop at Hampton, the
estate of Captain and Mrs. John
Ridgely. near Towson.
1t was at the suggestion of Mrs
Ridgely that the volunteer army went
to Hampton. She called DR.. Henry
S. West, principal of the school, by
telephone last week and raised the
question of the students going outside
the school to do such work. The girls
had been doing such work about the
school properties and DR.. West prompt
ly replied in the affirmative.
A call for volunteers was made by
DIR. West and 10 students, one teacher,
Miss Jean Anderson, and DR.. Vests
two sons, Henry and Julian West, con-
scented to go to Hampton. They left
in two trucks at and $3.50 O'Clock
Saturday morning, and were on the
job at o'clock. Captain Ridgely took
charge of the volunteers on their ar
rival at Hampton and directed them in
their task.
The young ladies were attired in
their every day school clothes and they
went at the work with a will. DR..
Vests sons followed them up by
shocking the fodder. They worked
from 9 a. m. to / p. m, and from to
D. M, and husked 1872 shocks, which
was considered a good days work for
them.
At O'Clock Mrs Ridgeley had lunch
con prepared and the girls had an
hour in which to rest and compare
notes on their experiences. Captain
and Mrs. Ridgely expressed themselves
as being exceedingly pleased with the
work and invited them to return at a
future date and help with the farm
ing.
After returning to school 1t was
found that fingers and muscles had
to be nursed for time, but the young
ladies were thoroughly satisfied with
their experiences. DR.. West said it
was the first time that the students
had done such work outside, but the
success of the undertaking would
prompt them to do more of it.
Hampton Farm is one of the largest
in the State and bumper crops of all
kinds are raised on it.

GLORY or TURKISH CAPITAL
Great Mosque Of Santa Sofia Marvel
In Beauty of Architecture and
Rich Decoration.

The great mosque of Santa Soma
towers majestically over Constantine
pie, dominating its surroundings by
sheer thick-set ponderousness. Its
bulky dome and tacked-on minarets
are, however, only the shell which
covers vast cathedral justly famed for
beauty of line and rich ornament.
From the outer court you pass
through q heavy bronze door and stand
within hall of such cavernous proper
lions that 1t seems impossible that
even the exterior, that seemed so mas
sivc, could contain it. Above, the dome
rises in sweeping curve. Once mosaic
figures of Christian saints adorned
these higher regions Of the hall, but
the vandal Turks long ago covered the
saints with plaster through which In
certain places they still can be seen
smiling 6imly but serenely.
The mosque has not always been a
Mohammedan temple. The origial
Santa Sofia, a Christian cathedral
erected by Constantine, was destroyed
by fire. IT was Justinian who rebuilt II
In the sixth century, decorating 1t
with such lavish magnificence that he
was himself surprised at the result and
cried out: Solomon, have surpassed

In Justinian's day the new temple
was q veritable Aladdin's cave. Its
walls and columns were of marble
brought from foreign quarries and
from other temples. Famous shrines OF
Diana, Apollo and even the Temple OF
the Sun at Baalbek contributed theiI
statues and jewels, willingly or not, to
the glory of Justinian's cathedral.

AT THE COLONIAL TOMORROW

"Italy's Flaming Front" the spec-
tacular Official war film, showing the
heroic work that has been performed
by the soldiers of the sunny peninsula
In turning back the invasion of the
Huns, brings TO mind the decisive part
that has been played by Italy in the
war for the triumph Of democratic
ideals. No mountain too steep. no
gorge too deep for the wonderful
spidermen OF the indomitable Italian
Army, who spin their strong steel
cables from peak TO peak of the high
est mountains in southern Europe. to
hurl themselves at the astonished
Hun. In "Italy's Flaming Front" the
most startling episode of the great war
yet brought to this country will be
shown, you will discover a new race
of men at work far above clouds,
dangling from invisible threads, speed
ing through the air at a mile a min
ute, Hitting back and forth on invis-
ible wings and trapping the Austrian
hordes in their mountain lairs, before
they are aware of what has happened.
The part tina. Italy has played since
her declaration Of war on Austria, en-
titles her to the respect and thanks
of the enemies of Teutonic autocracy
the world over. The most graphic
and comprehensive idea of Italy's
fighting powers can be gathered from
"Italy's Flaming Front" which will be
shown at the Colonial Theatre tamor-
row evening.

Three new courses OF instruction
make a special appeal at this time:
First - Business Administration un-
der DR.. Fred r Clark, who has gripped
our student-body by reason Of his at
tractive personality and practical In
sight into modern industrial conditions.
This course covers such subjects as dc-
counting, banking, marketing, insur-
ance, business organization, and trans
po~tation. lust as formerly IL was
found necessary to train men for the
ministry or for the law or for medicine,
or for engineering, so now 1t IS found
necessary to train men for commerce
and manufacturing and finance. This
demand that has been made Of the col
lege by the business conditions in
america, is being met by Delaware In
a constructive way.
Second - The course in Teacher

have increasing value in Supplying the
Ugh schools Of our State and region
