WESTERN MARYLAND COLLEGE

With June and school commence
ment the problem arises in the
minds of many graduates as to the
selection of college. An advertise
ment calling attention to Western
Maryland College in this issue OF

Western Maryland College is pri-
marily college for this locality.
Its curriculum is planned to meet
the needs of graduates of our Sec
ondary SCHOOLS, it's courses, conse-
quently, acting as a continuation OF
earlier work without any seeming
break in the work of major changes
being necessary. In building it's
curriculum in this manner it has
now been possible to maintain those
standards that are necessary for all
high grade colleges, a fact brought
out by its being classed Standard
agencies. In addition to these good
points, its beautiful location in the
highlands of Maryland, it's fine equip
ment in buildings and grounds, it's
high gade faculty. makes it an at
tractive place to get a higher educa-
ton
The college offers wide election in
courses leading to the degree OF
Bachelor of Arts. Courses may be
elected which prepare for schools
of law, medicine, and engineering,
and which admit to the best profess
sional schools. A four year course
in Home Economics leading to a de-
gree is offered. Students may also
elect couse in education, the COM
pletion of which secures a certificate
of the State Board of Education en-
aiding the holder to teach in the
high schools of this and other states.
In addition to the regular courses
offered, there are supplementary
courses in Music and Speech. A reg
ular unit of the Reserve Officers
Training Corps is established at the
college, the Government supplying
the teachers of Military Science and
Tactics and uniforms and equip
ment. During the year just ended
Western Maryland ranked high
among the schools of the Corps Area
in this department.
We recommend Western Mary

DELAWARE TIMBER FOR "OLI
IRONSIDES"

For more than half century the forests
of southern Delaware have proven
source of supply to many noted ship
builders throughout the country tor high
grade white oak vessel knees. It is gen
orally conceded that no section OF the
United States produces as fine quality
ship timbers as Sussex county. Gov
eminent officials recognized this many
years ago, and annually many thousands
OF dollers worth are shipped to different
parts of the country.
Probably one OF the heaviest dealers
in vessel knees in Delaware is John e.
Abbott residing on Albury avenue, Sea-
ford. who for many years has been flll-
ing Government contracts. After three
others had fallen down on contract
because of their inability to get the prop
er sizes for the remodellng OF the "Old
Ironsides' or the trlgate Constitution,
Mr.. Abbott has through William D.
Gill & Sons, Inc, of Baltimore, shipped
between 400 and 500 choice knees to
Boston SO the work could progress. The
contract amounted, it is stated, to more
the SIS, 900.
Residents of Sussex county feel prouH
of the fact that portion OF the timbe4
being used to recondition this famous
sea-fighter was taken from the forests
there. realizing that when history Of
the remodeling is written Sussex wiz
be included.

CLARK WORKS OUT
 1. EVOLUTION THEORY
Uses Own Experiences in Travd
 as His Bases

Washington, Feb. 14 R1Thc new theory of evolution advanced by Dr. Austin H. Clark of the Na- tional museum. attracting wide- spread attention among biologists. philosophers and religious leaders, is the product of his own observa- tions in widely varied fields of scientific investigation.
 While still in high school and later at Harvard, Dr. Clark studied the evolutionary developments of animals. birds, insects and marine life. As naturalist for the United States fisheries steamer AL batross in 1906 he made special marine studies. Returning home. he found that 50 little was known about these forms that he made . new system of classification for them. which now is accepted as the standard.
 All his studies led up to his new theory of evolution. which was pre- scented in an extended article in the Quarterly Review of Biology re- recently. This had been preceded by Il articles in other journals. each including part of the new idea. One was . paper before the Na- tional Academy of Sciences in 1922.
 Clark describes his theory as more of a blending and correlation of previous theories than . new one, although insofar as it concerns the lower types of animals it is new. This new part, However, might. he suggests, be considered as an exaggerated application Of the mutation theory of the great Dutch biologist, Hugo De Vries.
 The Clark theory differs from the Darwinian and Lamarkian theories of gradual selective evolution in its elimination of the time element as far as it concerns the humber types of animals, though admitting time element in restricted groups, such as the mammals.

 The rise in bankers' acceptance rates yesterday vas interpreted in some quarters as foreshadowing . rise in the rsdiscount rate of the New York Federal Rserve bank, di- rectors Of which meet after the close of the market.

 Except for the report that Jan- uary rubber consump ption set . new [monthly record. there was little tn the days business news to influence the price movement. Many of the large commission houses took the attitude that the prestige of the fed- eral reserve bank was at stake in its latest effort to force . reduction in brokera' borrowings, and that further restrictive measures would be taken if the boards recent warn- ing passed unhecded.
 Under the circumstances these houses urged reduction in specu- lative commitments and increased their margin requirements and their minimum commissions on odd lot in an apparent effort to bring such ac- tion about.

He says it is obvious that the gap between cats and dogs is quite broad, and it remains broad throughout the fossil record. Cats never become dogs, although both belong to the group known as car- nivorcus mammaB.
 He maintains that thesa geps are real and never were bridged by missing links. and furthermore that there is indisputable evidence that nature in the present day is eAdeavoring to produce new. types of animal life. This is evident, he says, in the production of variants. sports. dwarfs. giant. freaks and other abnormalities which occur in every generation.
 Regarding man, he says that while the bodily structure ts most nearly like that of the man like apes, yet ali of the early remains of prehistoric man so far discov. cred are distinctly those of man. or are the misinterpreted. frag- ments of apes. No missing link has ever been found, and he' does not believe any such thing ever existed.
