BACK TO
THE FARM
v. Social Life In the
Country.
BY c. ". GREGORY.

ICopyright, 1910. by American Press Asso-
ciation.I
TAHE social life and amusenents
of the country are essentially
u different from those in the
city. I have heard people say
that there Is no such thing as social
life in the country, but inquiry dis
closed the fact that they never had
spent much time in a modern, wide
awake farm community. The founda-
ton of all social life is in the home. II
is in the country that the home is de-
veloped to the highest extent, and it
necessarily follows that it is In the
country that the strongest basis for a
healthy social life exists.
The social life of the so called ''soci-
ety. people of the city does not exist
in the country, and it is blessing to
the country that it does not. Such a
social life is unnatural Social life is
primarily for amusement, recreation
and development Where is the amuse-
ment or the recreation in the struggle
for social recognition by a clique
whom q turn of the wheel of fortune
has brought uppermost? Where is the
development unless it be the develop
ment of heartaches, on the part of the
wife and poverty on the part of the
husband? Such a society, where peo-
pie are measured by their money rath-
er than by their true worth, is snob-
berry rather than social life
Outside the society" circles the so
cial life of the city consists largely of
amusements-Coney Island and its imi-
tators, theaters and public dances.
Some of these things are all right in
their way They furnish amusement
and recreation. But they do not fur
uish development.
Here is where the great advantage
Of country social life comes in. 1t is
not furnished ready made to those who
have the price. Social diversions in
the country are made to order. That
is the reason why some people do not
like them. and that is why a person
who once really gets into the spirit Of
country social life is never afterward
satisfied with social affairs in which
he cannot have an active part
The social possibilities of the country
are not taken advantage of in all COM
