Glass Sponge
BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

Every January impressive cere-
monies take place at Tarpon
Springs, Fla, to commemorate the
sponge harvest. It is a Hellenic
tradition Of historic trade and is
celebrated by the largest unmixed
Greek community. in America.
Those who have witnessed the
colorful services never forget the
thrill of the moment when the
successful diver brings back the
golden cross thrown into the deep
waters by the patriarch conducting
the services.
Sponge divers were experts at this
trade before the birth of Christ.
1t was a sponge that was dipped in
fruit vinegar to allay the thirst of
Jesus while he was on the cross.
There is said to be an almost
endless variety of sponges-in form,
size, texture and even color. All
live in the water, mostly in sea
water. Here they attach them
selves either to the bottom or to
rocks, shells, coralS or sunken sub
stances that have found their way
to the sea floor.
Some sponges have commercial
value; others, though we'll known,
are worthless but very interesting.
Many are delicately fine and ex-
quisitely beautiful in color and form.
They may be branched or have
dainty spicules ranging from / inch
long to several feet.
The species known as glass sponge
Is among the most remarkable of
them all. The Venus Flower
Basket" perhaps is the more widely
known. The glass sponges receive
their name from the strangely
twisted spicules, which are COM
posed of lustrous white fibers of
silica, constituent of glass. There
are many quaint shapes of various
sizes, and they are all of patterns
that are vastly interesting to study.
Sponges, as you know, are made
up of colonies of several or more
animals. The original single sponge
that was the foundation of the
Evening star., 1940-01-12

skeletons of the animals are filled in
and coverer over with queer jelly
like substance Of the living cells.
Spongers dive in special suits with
baskets and instruments for raking
the grown sponges from their an
chorage or they may 60 down bare
handed and bring lp their trophy.
The live sponge is tossed upon the
deck of the boat to die. Men tram
pie them and wash the jelly away.
Fine sponges are sorted and hung
upon strong wires to air and dry.
Purchasers from all over the world
may be seen at Tarpon Springs to-
day as they bargain for the sponges
that will find their way to many
places for the use of man. The in
dustry in q few short years has
reached more than 81 900, 900 a year
turnover.
