The job undertaken by the six col
lege girls from Wellesley Is of no
small proportions; they propose "to
clean up the Ottoman capital." And
what is rnbre, advices from the unit
indicate tliat American elbow grease
and a. Yankee application of the old
soap and water method is coming
pretty close to accomplishing a large
part of the task.
Tidying up the terrible Turk calls
for a large organization as well as zeal
and determination. One hundred and
fifty assistants work with " the girls,
teaching sanitation, doing child wel
fare work, personal hygiene, conduct
ing medical clinics, distributing food
and supplies, and carrying on a dozen
other jobs of a nature distinctly for
eign to the , Turkish temperament.
Three thousand families are under the
unit's watchful eye. Neutral House is
the centre established by the unit as
clearing house for orphans.
Six States are represented in the
group. Miss Mabelle C. Phillips, di
rector of the unit, comes from Plain-field,-"-N.

is from Wallaston, Mass.; Miss Olive

Grenwich, Jan. 11 - A man said
to be an Austrian and a one-time
convict in Sing Sing prison, was 'lodg
ed in the jail here yesterday, pending
an investigation of a sensational story
in connection with his arrest. The

arrested while digging for a sum of
money, said to be $150,000. which, the
police say. - the man claims is buried

The man procured a permit to dig
for the treasure from Newton F.
Johnson, first selectman, and he
promptly started to turn up the earth
at a spot near the upper bridge of
the park and adjacent to the Emily
Bruce Shelter for Children, when he
was arrested toy the town's police.

had a paper in his possession show

$50,000 of which he said was in gold
and the rest in hank notes. Accord

Entertainment
Is Arranged By
School Children
Each year the children at Maple
wood school excel in the line of enter
tainment given by young folks in this
city. This year they hope to even
surpass previous years, when they
present their dramatic and musical
entertainment in the auditorium of
Junior High school, opening on Fri
day evening and continuing Saturday
matinee and evening.
The children have been exerting
every effort to make the affair a suc
cess and it is expected that the hall
will be taxed to its capacity at each
performance.
The program includes many selec
tions by the school orchestra and
opens with the presentation of
musical fairy play given by tha tiniest
tots, entitled, "Midsummers Eve,"
under the direction of .Miss Hazel
Williams, assisted by Miss Angelus
Cunningham and Mrs. Eba Oberg.
The costumes for this play have been
designed by Miss Marjorie Mastroni.
Perhaps the prettiest and most
elaborate feature on the program will
be the charming Japanese playlet of
ine Japanese Oirl, with the scene
laid in quaint Japan, which will be
given -by the older children, under
tne direction or Miss Esther Plaisted
and Miss Marie Green. The costumes
for this promise to be gorgeous and
were designed by Mrs. John
O'Rourke.
. The last number will be a one act
comedy, "What Rosie Told the Tail
or," coached by Miss Julia .Farnam
who is prominent in amateur drama
tics. This will doubtless prove most
amusing.
Members of the Glee club will sing
ana dance tne grand nnale in cos
tumes accompanied by the orchestra.
- Girls who are out of employment
at the present time should take spe
cial note of the splendid classes which
have been establirhed for their bene
fit.
At the International Institute on
Beach street there is a cl;iss on Tues
day evening and another on Thurs
day afternoon for the girls who
wish to learn dressmak:n. or any
other branch of sewing. This class
is of special interest now a th-3 white
sales will soon start at the various
stores and then the youn-r women
will be able to buy at a greatly reduc
ed price, cloth from which they can
make their summer lingerie or
dresses. The girls are ever welcome
at the institute. Mrs. L. B. Minor
and Mrs. Frances Messina assisted by
several volunteer workers are in
charge of the classes.
At the Golden Hill house of the T.
W. C. .A. registration is now open
for a free class in commercial sub
jects for stenographers or plerks
who have lost their positions. Type
writing, shorthand, arithmetic, spell
ing and office equittee will be
taught.
The girl who is wise will take ad
vantage of these great opportuni
ties during her idle moments. There
is no expense attached and its
hoped that there will be many wise
girls who make this dull time worth
something to themselves.
