FARMER RADF0RD ON
WOMAN SUFFRAGE

The home Is the greatest contribu-
ton of women to the world, and the
hearthstone is her throne Our So
cial structure is built around her, and
social righteousness is in her charge.
Her beautiful life lights the skies of
hope and her refinement is the charm
of twentieth century civilization. Her
graces and her power are the cumu-
lative products of generations of
queenly conquest, and her crown of
exalted womanhood is jeweled with
the wisdom of sanity mothers. She
has been a great factor in the glory
of our country, and her noble achieve
ments should not be marred or her
hallowed influence blighted by the
coarser duties of citizenship. Ameri-
can chivalry should never permit her
to bear the burdens of defending and
maintaining government, but should
preserve her unsullied from the allied
influences of politics, and protect her
from the weighty responsibilities of
the sordid affairs of life that will
crush her ideals and lower her stand
ards. The motherhood of the farm
is our inspiration, she is the guardian
of our domestic welfare and a guide
to higher life, but directing the af-
fairs of government is not within wo-
mans sphere. and political gossip
would cause her to neglect the home,
forget to mend our clothes and burn
the biscuits.

THE COUNTY FAIR
BY Peter Radford

Lecturer National Farmers Union
The farmer gets more out of the
fair than anyone else. The fair to
city man is an entertainment; to
farmer it is education. Let US take
stroll through the fair grounds and
linger a moment at a few of the points
of greatest interest. We will first
visit the mechanical department and
hold communion with the worlds
greatest thinkers.
You are now attending congress of
the mental giants in mechanical sci
ence of all ages. They are addressing
you in tongues of iron and steel and
in language mute and powerful tell an
eloquent story of the worlds progress.
The inventive geniuses are the most
valuable farm hands we have and
they perform an enduring service to
mankind. We can all help others for
a brief period while we live, but it
takes a master mind to tower into the
realm of science and light a torch of
progress that will illuminate the path
way of civilization for future genera
tons. The men who gave US the
sickle, the binder, the cotton gin and
hundreds of other valuable inventions
work in every field on earth and will
continue their labors as long as time.
Their bright intellects have conquered
death and they will live and serve
mankind on and on forever, without
money and without price. They have
shown us how grand and noble it is
to work for others; they have also
taught US lessons in economy and eff
| cheney, how to make one hour do the
work of two or more; have length
ened our lives, multiplied our
opportunities and taken toll off the
back of humanity.
They are the most practical men
the world ever produced. Their in
ventions have stood the acid test of
utility and efficiency. Like all useful
men, they do not seek publicity, yet
millions of machines sing their praises
| from every harvest field on earth and
as many plows turn the soil in mute
applause of their marvellous achieve
! ments.

RURAL SOCIAL cENTERs

We need social centers where our
young people can be entertained,
amused and instructed under the di-
rection of cultured, clean and COM
petent leadership where aesthetic
surroundings stir the love for the
beautiful, where art charges the at
mosphere with inspiration and power,
and innocent amusements instruct
and brighten their lives.
To hold our young people on the
farm we must make farm life more
attractive as well as the, business of
farming more remunerative. The
school house should be the social unit,
properly equipped for nourishing and
building character, SO that The lives OF
our people can properly function
around it and become supplied with
the necessary elements of human
thought and activity.

~ through the efforts of the various

houses made famous by Washington
as his headquarters during the war
of independence, have been preserved
and are now suitably marked for the
information of posterity. During that
long struggle for freedom Washington
used perhaps a hundred or more
houses for this purpose in various
parts of the country. Many have dis
appeared under the ravages of time,
but about two score of them have
been saved. 1t was in these houses
that he planned his battles and
strategy; it was in them that indepen-
