SPLENDID WORK DEVELOPING
DELAWARE GIRLS To COOPERATE
YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN AS
SOCIATION DOING GOOD WORK
Cooperative Spirit Needed in Can-
paign to Garry on Thru the Year
Camp OntOnka Activities

A meeting of the Board Of Directors
of the Delaware District Y. w. C. A,
was held at Dover recently, Mrs. Clar-
ence 2. Pool, the president, in the
chair Routine business was trans
acted, and plans discussed for the
Finance Campaign soon to be started.
Mrs. H. D. Boyer Of Smyrna, brought
echoes of the convention for the
cause and cure of war, recently held
in Washington. The following report
was given by the associate secretary,
Miss Ruth Kemp.
Report Of Girl Reserve Club Work
The Delaware District has Girl Re
serve clubs in the following towns:
Claymont, Christiana, Newark, Mar
shaIlton, New Castle, Middletown, Do
yer, Caesar-Rodney schools and Mil
ford with a total Of ten high schools
and five grade school clubs. The Rich
ardson Park school has within the last
week requested that a club be formed
there. Caesar Rodney School leads in
number with two high school and two
grade school clubs. Mr. Jump and the
Advisers cooperate splendidly in try
ing to find and meet the needs Of the
girls. The Associate Secretary spends
every Monday there as the meetings
are held in school time and must be
made worth while to justify that time.
The Christiana club, new this fall, is
small group of about twelve very
active and enthusiastic girls. They
knew nothing Of Girl Reserve work
but are very eager to learn and are
developing very Weel.
Activities Held and Planned Ahead
A week end conference was held at
Camp Ontonka September 22-23 for
cabinet members and advisers to help
train them for their years work. Sew
eral clubs have planned their activities
for several months ahead and have
carried out their plans quite success
fully. Much Of the time of the AS
sociate Secretary has been given to
meetings with cabinets and advisers
to help them plan their work and
whenever necessary m helping them in
the carrying out Of their plans. At
Christmas time several of the clubs
distributed boxes of food, fruit, candy
and toys to families where they felt
a little extra cheer was needed to
make really happy time. Three Of
the clubs sent Mexican Friendship
bags, another made scrapbooks for the

dig a hole. When the rear wheels get
into hole and it is difficult to OBTAIN
traction to pull out, back up few feet
and then shift gear quickly to take
advantage Of the forward momentum
Of the car. This forward drift Of the
car may be just enough to pull out.
In driving over crater-li1e holes, swatch
the road closely and try to stagger the
jolts. Don't let both wheels hit the
obstruction squarely. This avoids a
severe impact on the car. The same
result is noticeable when crossing
rough tracks at an angle.

Children love its mellow favor and
readily take needed liquid in this deli

"invert" sugar-sugar in its most
easily-digested state. The double car-

LOS ANGELES, october 5.-Mrs. W..
p. Rhoades. alleged member of nys-
terious cult described as the Divine
Order of the Royal Arm of the Great
Seal, was quoted by police tonight to
have confessed that the body of a 19-
year-old girl had been buried under
the flooring of her house in Venice,
beach suburb.
Investigators said Mrs. Rhoades told
them that her daughter Villa had died
three years ago while undergoing treat
ment given by members of the cult,
and that she and her husband had
scooped a shallow grave under the
floor of a bedroom, where they had
placed the girls body.
Mrs. RhoadeS had been questioned
for three hours before she sobbed the
story of the alleged burial.
Police said as soon as authorization
was received from District Attorney
Burton Fits, the floor Of the house
would be torn up and search made.

Some Entertain Doubts.
Even in those days, however, facts
stood out which caused some OF the
delegates, who were perhaps more oo-
servant and less credulous than the rest,
tn entertain certain doubts. During our
visits to some of the centers Of social
service some of the employees, particu-
larly women who could speak French,
had given the astonished visitors 10
understand, in a few SWittly-SpoKen
words. that what they saw was excep-
tional, or at all events unusual In Mos
COW, and that only fraction OF the
population were free of these childrens
establishments, these houses OF rest,
sanatoria, model schools, etc.
In the factories some OF the visitors
had been shocked to learn that under
the Soviet regime there were 18 grades
of wages. and that, for instance, man

And then there was another thing.
Some of the more privileged visitors
had received in Paris from kind-heart-
ed friends the names and addresses OF
people living in Moscow who had very
little to do with the Soviet government.
Slipping away from the Whirlwind OF
official tours they had been able some
times to pay some private visits.

and stole about $25 in silver from

The thieves also gained entrance
to the Haines & Kirk hardware
store by breaking out window in
the alleyway next to the Ashby store,
but the heavy door to the main
storeroom of the hardware store re-
sisted the efforts of the thieves, and
they were not able to reach anything
of value that could be easily carried
