Plans have been made TO launch in

The senatorial deadlock which de-
moralized the Illinois legislature dur

ITO stay at home is best"

''To stay at home is best"
You may quote the homely old adage
In vain to the girl whose ambitious
dreams lure her away from the coun-
try place or the village to the city.
And often the girl who stays at
home envies the girl who goes away.
Distance lends enchantment to the
view. The dream Of city life is like
a glittering pageant in the shifting
kaleidoscope of the girls aspirations.
She sees only the bright lights.
More and more the city swallows up
the pure womanhood and manhood of
of the people Of the United States live
in cities, and the proportion grows
larger yearly.
This is how 1t is:
The girl of town or country grows
tired of teaching district school or
clerking in the village store or staying
on the farm. She goes to the city to
realize her dream of life.
At the first she is delighted-enam-
ored of the glare and glitter Here,
she thinks, is the substance of things
hoped for. the evidence of things seen
in her visions.
| Then comes disillusion.
The awful loneliness of the crowd
comes upon her. The sordid surround
| ings of her cheap boarding house, the
comparison Of her frumpy dresses
with the tailored suits of we'll dressed
women-these things lead to heart
| ochac ond uvratohadnacr Che fc a
stranger in strange land.
Poor lassie!
! II she is made of strong moral fiber
she will come through 1t all and save
her womanhood and self respect, but
she will also grow a little callous Of
heart and mind. In opposing her self
ishness to the sordid selfshness of her
world some of the bloom of innocency
is likely to disappear.
If there is a weakness somewhere
in her moral armor her very virtues
Of innocence and trustfulness may
lead TO her undoing-
To stay at home is best.
To be sure. it is quiet down on the
farm or In the village. but the monot-
ony is as nothing to the aching lone
illness that comes in the midst of
strange crowds. And there are a full
ness of happy comradeship and a
friendliness of contact among the
home folks that are never to be found
elsewhere
Besides, should the country girl be
able to win her way in the city and
save her soul, what has she gained
over the home life2
Experience; that is all.
To stay at home is best.
