Back To The Soil.

Stateland, the Eastern State Normaps
splendid farm, was initiated last even
ing into its own possible joys. Again
Eastern came forth with another unique
experiment and these experiments are
becoming both frequent and appreciat-
ed.
The occasion was the first student
reception OF the year. But this time
the President and Faculty entertained
more than Two hundred students with
a husking-bee. The stiff-shirt was aban-
doned for the negilgee and the. evening
dress was forsaken for garment that
could withstand both dust and wear in
the field.
At six thirty the great party walked
eastward to Stateland, chaperoned by
almost every member OF the faculty.
After the mile walk they were directed
by Professor Pullen, head OF Agricul-
ture, into the heart Of activity. large
corn field, that lay into the moonlight
with touch of allurement-half work,
half romance. With faculty supervision,
the party, was soon desperately hard
working, loyal force. The shocks were
torn down, the ears OF corn went into
neat piles and the fodder was stacked in
neat rows. At least it was SO directed by
man-in- charge and we believe he was
obeyed. The moonlight revealed pic.
ture of dear old past, where life had les:
frivolity and more of humanity, more
OF labor, and less of sham, more Of
equality and less Of transient rank.
At eight-thirty the faculty committed
on social entertainments served as re
freshments cider. gingerbread, and ap
pies. To this committee the Easter
community owes much. Very early il
the evening march was made back from
. the soil to the mental toll. A numbe
of Richmond friends accompanied East

new ENTERPRISE
FOR WINSLOW

There is being agitated at the
present time the establishment
Of modern laundry plant in our
town. This proposition has, as
it should have, the support of
the best business men. The
plan proposed is to form a cor
poration with a capital stock of
S12, 100000. About one half of
this amount has already been
subscribed and those wishing to
get shares in this company will
have to subscribe before the re-
quired $12,000.00 is raised, for
then the subscriptions will be
closed. 1t is not the intention
OF the new corporation to be in
opposition to the present laun-
dry. In fact the manager of the
laundry has taken stock in the
new project.
All who have given any
thought to the proposition will
agree readily that Winslow
needs a modern laundry plant.
Those who have been connected
with business of this kind say
that it will pay 20 per cent on
the investment the first year.
It is incumbent on every one
who takes pride in his town to
support this proposition, if not
by taking stock in the corpora
ton then by patronizing it after
it is established.
Those wishing to subscribe for
stock will find a copy of the
agreement with the following
parties: F. T. LaPrade, ]. K.
Seeger, billiards. Drug Store,
and A. Y. Moore, Room 2, Elks'
