~ In visiting a fair or any large rural
assembly the most striking feature OF the
scene j. fhc great proportion OF uncul-
.iured women. Many are physically
broken down before their time by over
bearing of children and ovcrwork at
the same time. The Young women lack
tidiness aud physical beauty that comes
of n cultivated mind. Nature will al
ways make an attempt al bloom and
beauty in the young maiden even under
adverse circumstances. But among our
farming people. the excellence OF wOm-
-lnhood j. early obIiierated. in fact it j.
never half developed. Consequently
the mothers Of the r4ce are in prepared
.or thrir high function. The most ur-
gent need oi this generation j. the ele-
walton. culture and impI Ovement. both
