DEERFIELD ARTS AND CRAFTS
TYPICAL WORK AT RECENT EXHIBI-
TION HELD BY CRAFTSWOMEN
OF THE QUAINT TOWN.

The Deerfeld Arts and Crafts Society has just
held its third annual exhibition with results much
too successful for the limited floor space at the
disposal of the society and crafts flourish to
such an extent at Deerfied that building ac-
commodations must be forthcoming before an
other year. The blue and white embroidery which
first made the Deerfeld society known throughout
the country is only part of large or
ganizaton. The exhibition this year included the
embroidery, palm basket weaving. raffa basket
weaving beaten metal work, photography. the old
fashioned netting, rug making, furniture making
and bookbnding- This is a formidable list of in
dustries for little Massachusetts village, nesting
among great hills and outwardly the quietest,
most old fashioned place imaginable. undsturbed
by factory whistles putting engines
There Is only Deerield in America. The viii
lage is unique, from two points of view The place
itself is quaint and old beyond description. and
the people all skilled craftsmen almost ALL
that is. and it would be say crafts
women. for the men farmers. for the most part
Their wives are the members of the Arts and
Crafts Society, which has just held it's exhibition
The mantle of the Middle Ages seems have fallen
on Deerfeld in matters artistic 1t is the of
place that would have filed the soul Ruskin
with hope that steam and factories and trusts
and such inartistic things cannot take from the
world the spirit of craftsmanship and the ideal
the dignity of manual labor.
THE BLUE AND WHITE WORK
Some few years ago. five or six the women of
Deerfeld who did the famous Deerfield blue and
white work began to embroider in real earnest
There good deal of talk at the time about
the place of such industries in small towns. and
the experiment watched with interest. Since
then the industries have grown to the long list
given above, and are still growing. Every of
the things done. however. originated in Deerfeld
Deer1eld women do the work, and that there is
a sort of organization of the workers, Deerfeld
women run 1t. The organization made not
much more than year ago, and In no way inter
feres with the independent spirit which is the chief
things with the hands. The officers without
salary. and the proceeds Of each bit of work GO
before directly to the worker. Now, however, that
large orders received it has been found better
in cases to pay the worker beforehand from
the SoCietys money, and when the work is fin
ished and the price paid the worker receives

The ways OF other men that pass me BY
I would not frown at folly. sOlemn-wise,
And be content shrewdly TO criticise-

Show me the tie that others binds
That makes lcyable. when understood
Too long I've had the narrower wish to be
Glad in the garb of cold auSterity-
Give me a faith. Just for each common day,
Not in vague things beyond my ken ard care;
Let me believe that down lfe's darkest way
The CRIME and dust hide something sweet and fair
Let me find something in each sOrdid scene
OF hidden good that is. might have been
