Stevens. q girl scarcely out Of her teens.
Of 4043 Juanita street. st. Louis, has
been training 20 boys Ill summer In the
way they should 30 to become model
farmers.
Miss Stevens is q shining light In the
social life Of the city, where she is one
Of the prettiest and most popular girls
in the youngest set. Her father is Prof.
w. j. Stevens, an active member OF the
Civic Improvement league.
For several years she has been q stu
dent Of agriculture and botany. She
used to, live in Carthage, where the civic
Improvement idea is shown in the beau
tifying of the homes. When she came to
st. Louis she began to look around her.
The work Of the Civic Improvement
league interested her, and, besides. che
liked small boys.
She spoke to her father and her father
spoke to his associates. They talked
with her. and soon discovered that the
young woman knew we'll what she was
talking about.
The result was that an invitation
went out, inviting boys Of IA years OF
age or under to come to Miss Stevens
and learn the occupation of their az
cestor, Adam.
Miss Stevens did not look for much en-
couragement at first, but 20 boys were
awaiting her at the appointed place at
eight o'clock in the morning, when she
had expected about ten.
The league had obtained for her FIVE
acre tract Of ground on Shaw avenue, in
