Women’s Land Army Cadet Corps At Work (1918)

Women’s Land Army Cadet Corps at work. Location of events unknown. This is the teenage girl version of the women doing farm work during World War One. Girls in a row; digging something; stepping on the shovels vigorously. Then a shot of them scattered in a field; spreading compost or manure on soil with pitchforks; someone leads a horse in BG. Inspection of the cadets by two older women — the girls stand there in a line; grinning. Next; a girl grooms a tiny long-haired and very strange looking pony; the others watch. Then CU an elderly man talks to some of the cadets; shakes hands. Agriculture; war work; youth organisations; home front FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
