SilkWorms of the Sea.

Plenty of worms live in the sea,
and some of them are very beautiful
creatures. Which latter fact ought TO
be consoling TO ourselves, inasmuch as
there are naturalists who contend that
the earliest ancestor of the human race
was marine worm. But the so-called
'silkworm Of the sea"-the designation
being purely igurative and poetical-
is bivalve mollusk properly known
as the pima" and native TO the Medi-
terranean. 1t spins a silk so beautiful
that in ancient days the fiber was re-
served exclusively for the weaving Of
royal garments, This silk is spun by
the mollusk TO furnish an anchor line
by which 1t fastens itself TO a con-
yenient rock. 1t is extremely fine and
very strong. Cleaned, dried and passed
through combs, 1t is reduced to deli
cate threads of a lustrous brownish-
yellow hue. which are woven into
gloves, stockings and other articles. A

West Virginia.

The present state of West Virginia
was originally and for a long time part
of the state of Virginia. The preSiden-
tial election in 1860 showed that a
majority of the people of Virginia were
opposed to seeding from the Union,
but when President Lincoln issued his
call for troops a state convention pass
ed an ordinance of secession without
waiting for popular vote. Later it
was ratified by the people of the east
ern part of Virginia and repudiated by
those of the western part. Thus the
secession, or attempted secession of
Virginia from the Union led to the
separation Of West Virginia from old
Virginia and the formation of new
state.

Prominent Woman Worker
Says American Women

Mrs. Frank A vanderlip Of New
York City, treasurer Of the National
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, is
urging upon the women Of America
definite and consistent war service.
Ia recent interview she said:
| American women must quit being
parasites and learn to give instead Of
always taking. An hour or two a
I few days a week is not enough for
! any woman to give her country. We
must give a full business day, an g.
hour day every day Of the week IL we
are TO count for anything while the
war lasts"
Mrs. Vanderlip outlined the splen-
did work which has been done by the
women Of Great Britain and France
and congratulated American women
on having as their allies in their new
work such women.

said Mrs. Vanderlip, women will be

Notice to Correspondents:

This is the last opportunity Of placing before
the people OF St. Mary S, irregardIess Of the sec
ton in which they live, the absolute necessity
Of quick action and cooperation to prevent the
railroad from Brandywine to MechanicsvilIe
from being torn up and the rails shipped away,
thereby positively losing the last chance of re-
establishing traffic over this line.
The u. S. Government has granted an ex-
tension Of fifteen days from June in which to-
enable our people to raise the balance of the
funds necessary to complete the payment for the
railroad and equipment. Therefore, June 22
is the last day Of grace that will be granted and
unless the deficit is raised by that time South
em Maryland will lose its one and only railroad.
There is no risk in subscribing to this stock.
If the road is not purchased the subscriptions
will be returned.
This is a vital matter for all Of us. 1t affects
every one and influences every value. The
future prosperity and continued development Of
St. Marys depends on this road. !
To maintain present farm values and insure
the welfare Of the county this road must be
saved---and money alone will do it The
money is here, more than ever before in the
history Of the county The question is, are we
loyal to old Southern Maryland and will we
come to her aid when she Is threatened with al
futher curtailment Of her already meagre trans
portation faciEdes2
Wnte or phone at once to E. NJ. Anderson,
C. c. beverley or E. r. Jarboe, Committee on
Finance, Mechanicsville, and tell them that you
are with them in their efforts to save the old
road and eventually extend it to Underwater.

Are wepeople Of ST. Mary's, who have over
subscribed three Liberty Loans, a Red Cross
fund and supported loyalty and literally every
other war program, going to place blemish on
our record by failing to buy War Savings
Stamps to the amount allotted usp IF we say
NO to this, and if we are determined to uphold
the honor Of the old county, it behooves the
last one OF us to invest in these stamps to the
very limit Of our ability We must not be
satisfied when we have exhaused what available
cash we have, but should go further than that,
and pledge our future savings to THEN purchase.
Tuesday, June 18th, has been designated as
War Savings Day for St Mary's. Six meet
ings have been scheduled for different sections
of the county, and at these meetings it is hoped
that we will pledge ourselves to buy, during the
remainder OF this year, the quota assigned US.
On that day the Government calls upon each
Of us to renew our oath Of loyalty and to give
new proof Of our will to carry on until we
win, and new evidence that our dollars as well
as our hearts are behind the men facing the Hun
on the martyred fields of France
We have sent the pick of our boys into a
foreign land, into terrors and hardships that we
cannot even know---and their faith has not fall
tered. We know they will do their part and
they are trusting that we will do ours.
Are we keeping faith with themp Are we
scrimping and saving to help these boys do the
thing that we and all humanity have asked Of
them, and to help them come back to us sane
and whole2
Unless we stint and deny ourselves we can
never feel that we have performed our fulIsduty
towards them, and we can never claim that we
have discharged our full obligation to them I'M
til we have made some real, hurting sacrifice
that their lot may be made easier and safer.
