THE SCHOOL AND GRANGE

Teachers In Rural School Districts
Should Join the Grange.
A large proportion of the rural school
teachers are. boys and girls who have
been raised on the farm. The inter-
ests Of the farmer and his family,
with whom they still associate, are
still their interests, and each may be
helpful to the other when associated in
the grange. =, S~..5$ e.. 49,
There should be closer relationship
between school and grange. A teacher
IN a rural district should, II there ia
such an organization as the grange in
the community, become member and
make the interests Of the farmer his
interests and in every way possible
help TO- make such organization inspir-
ing and success. If there Is no such
organization. a little effort on his part
might make It possible to organize one

ADVANTAGE IN ASSOCIATION

The Grange Helps Farmers to Keep
Out of the Ruts.
The grange should be a great help to
the man or woman who is trying to ex-
tend his or her horizon, and it il just
such people who leave their impress
upon the world. The people who do
not strive to broaden themselves get
into rut. The world has little use
for these who stop growing, no matter
what their age may be. 1t is the fuller
life, the broader experience, the deeper
culture, which enrich civilization, and
these we get in our association togeth-
er. Every occupation is crowded with
men who have stopped growing, and
agriculture is no excepton-men who
have got into ruts and cannot get out.
Such men do not benefit the world
much and are not missed when they
retire from active life. It is the men
who learn the secret Of wise living,
men who are broader than the bread
and butter question, that the world
wants, and the grange is striving to
make more such men.
