in protesting against the impos-
itiOn of political duties On women
we know we voice the majority Of
women of the United States. After
sixty-flve years of organized effort,
woman suffrage is a minority move
ment. We believe that woman has
more power in uplifting civilization
through the home than man has
through his vote.
IL should like to repeat what we
call our creed. We anti-suffragists
stand for the conservation of the
best Of American womanhood in all
conditions and stations of life, for
the preservation OF the home, for
the retention of the best ideals Of
preceding generations adapted to the
advantages and opportunities given
to them under modern conditions.
We believe that women according
to their leisure, opportunity, and
experience, should take part in
creasingly in civic and municipal
affairs as they have always done in
charitable, philanthropic, and ed
vocational activities, And we be-
lieve that this can be done best by
women without the ballot, as a non
partisan body of disinterested
workers"

Washington, December Tx
Senator Root in a paper read here
today before the Anti-Suffrage Con-
vention, outlined his reasons for
opposition to the proposed Consti-
tutional amendment TO enfranchise
women. This is the first national
gathering of women opposed TO
woman suffrage. Mr.. Root said in
part: ~ am against having the Con-
stitution of the United States amend
ed SO as to impose woman suffrage
on the States which do not wish for
it, not merely or chiefly because my
judgement does not approve of
woman suffrage, but for a much
more vital reason.
ut is destruction Of the right af
self-goyernment and a subsection OF
the people Of New York TO the gov
ernment OF others. Having failed to
secure the assent TO woman suffrage
OF such States as South Dakota and
West Virginia and Ohio and New
York and Pennsylvania, the advo-
Gates Of woman suffrage now seek
to compel such States to accept IL
against their will and 20 compel
them to carry on their local govern
ment and select their represent
atives in the national government
in conformity TO the opinions OF the
people OF other States who are in
favor Of woman suffrage. think
such an attempt is contrary TO the
principles Of liberty upon which the
American Union was established
and without which il cannot en-
dure."

Arthur NJ. Dodge, Of New York, pre-
sident OF the National Association
Opposed TO Woman Suffrage, said

Another noticeable feature that

our halls and class-rooms in our

CONWAY COMMUNITY CHRISTINA
TREE

saturday Dec. 23rd, was the big
gest day in the history Of the Wo-
mans Home Demonstration Club OF
Conway.
This day had been selected as
real community day with the school
cooperating to have a community
Christmas tree. The weather was
ideal and the angels call peace on
earth, good will to men" was echoed
far and wide.
We had Christmas stories told by
various members Of the Club. which
were enjoyed by both old and young.
II was an all-day meeting for the
purpose of celebrating the birth Of
the great Prince Of Peace. Mrs. S.
p. Caudill and Mrs. $. J. Cornett were
active workers and tried TO treat
every child alike.
More than one hundred boys and
girls were made happy by the gifts
presented by the Club and other
friends.
The forenoon was occupied in
putting up the Christmas tree,
decorating il and alloting each
childs part in small neat pack
age.
The afternoon was spent in sing
ing Christmas carols, making Christ
mas speeches by the school children
which work was under the super
vision Of Anna Lee Wood.
AZ 2:30 o'clock the arrival OF San
In Claus was announced and all the
children extended to him many
hearty applauses. Santa made
brief speech TO the children and
then proceeded 10 distribute 10 the
n any outstretched hands the fr'Iits
from the tree.
The children went away rejoicing
and shouting that Christmas
ought to come oftener than once
year.
we all want TO thank Mrs. Martin
for her kindness in helping TO bring
about the success Of the Christmas
tree.
The entire community extends its
love aud thanks To Miss Hlda Welch
81 Berea for her kindness in remem-
bering us so literally.
The Club wishes TO extend many
thanks 10 n. +. Spence. County Agent
Of Berea for the untiring efforts put
forth the past year in bringing
about n close community spirit and
for the generous gifts for our
Christmas tree.

students who daily use the pure
mountain water would be unable to
appreciate the privation and hard
ships experienced by the students
of earlier times. Cistern water was
the best that could be provided and
that often failed. We shall never
cease to be grateful to Doctor
pearsons whose liberality provided
the water system and money for
plumbing and sanitary convenien-
ces.
But Berea's chief glory is its
young people who are coming in
increased numbers every year.
The attendance in the school year
of 1889 and 1890 was 355. During
the last school year the enrolment
reached 1906. The majority of
students in the earlier nineties be-
longed to the colored race. The
mountains were represented only
by such young people as were will
ing to bear the opprobrium of at
tending a school where colored
students were received. In 1904
the Kentucky legislature stopped
Berea's work for the colored peo-
pie and since that time attendance
from the mountains has increased
by leaps and bounds.
This brief review Of twenty-seven
years of Berea life touches only a
few points OF the marvellous growth
of the school. Alongside Of the
material development has been the
educational progress marked by the
introduction of the best methods in
education, with adaptions best
suited to the needs Of the mountain
field.
Berea's place in the educational
world is assured, and its beneficent
influences will be felt in a thous-
and far away valleys for all time
to come.
The citizen. [volume] (Berea, Ky.) 1899-1958, 1916-12-28

students who come to Berea in
these days find conditions far dii-
ferent than those who attended the
College between twenty-five and
thirty years ago.
The changes are perhaps most
noticeable in the material growth
of the Institution represented by
the increasing number Of substan-
tial buildings erected, the large adj
ditions to the College domain, and
the splendid equipment and appar-
atus which gives Berea superiority
over other Southern institutions in
these respects.

WHAT THE SHORT COURSES WILL
DO FOR YOU

Chances must always be taken
and experiments tried by the far
mcr, but the good business man
will reduce these uncertainties TO
a minimum.
In this country dozens Of men are

pose or helping the farmer, others
are studying disease germs, others
are studying soils and fertilizers,
others plant diseases, others live

possible TO control many Of the inn
portant pests and diseases and TO get
better results from the efforts put
forth. Still, to get the full benefit
of this information il must become
the possession Of the man on the
farm.
A most effective way for the far
mer and the farmers son TO become
informed OF these important ques-
tions is by attending winter short
courses in agriculture at the State
College Of Agriculture or colleges and
schools giving such, near the far
mer. There practical lecture
courses are given and demonstra-
tions made that give the farmer
more information than he will on
the average get by his reading
alone in many years. While at the
agricultural college during the
short course he gets in touch with
the agricultural experts, he learns
how TO use and interpret the bull
letins too scientific for the average
agricultural reader, he becomes ac-
quainted with the leading agricul-
tural men and many people who are
devoting all their time and influ-
ence to agriculture, and acquires a
great store Of information of great
est practical value. In fact the

course in agriculture aud makes
one of the best investments of his
money that he will ever have an
opportunity Of making.
Bcrea College offers a splendid
short course this winter Of twelve
weeks for farmers and farmers
sons. The following subjects are
included in this course:
Soils.-How to improve the soil,
how to stop washing, judging fer
filters, how drainage, lime ferti-
lizers aud cultivation improves the
land. This subject of soils is the
biggest question with the farmers
and yet the least known about.
Farm Crops.-Rotation of crops,
crops suited for different soils, seed
ing. cultivating, harvesting, growing

feed and as soil builder.
Fruit.-Selccting pruning before
setting, setting, care and treatment
first, second. third, fourth and fifth
year which are the most impor-
tant years Of the life of the tree.
The students go out and actually
do the work with teacher. They
learn hy doing.
Gardening. - This is one OF the
great subjects Of the farm home,
yes and one Of the biggest for the
town and city home nowadays. One
woman in Knox County near a min
ing camp made in 1915. s257O0 on
her garden with the aid of a friend.
She placed $4,000 Of this money in
the hands of her friends TO be spent
toward educating her boys. There's
money in gardening il We only
knew how TO get il out. Women
and girls are invited to take this
subject. Every phase Of garden
ing will be discussed.
Feeding and Breeding Stock on
the Farm.-Foods which make mus
Gle. foods which make fat and foods
which make milk. The cries, mo
milk" "No butter" milk and butter
is a little scarce at my house" II
cant get milk and butter in Berea,"
shes giving half-gallon at a milk
ing MY cows not doing much
good" All OF these and hundreds
of others are heard in country and
town at this time of the year.
The cries, needs and wants, with
the breeds OF mich cow and cattle
and calves for market will be thor
ly studied in this course. Horses,
mules. Jacks, hogs, poultry and
sheep have an important place this
winter in the Short Course. As
little as we think of poultry, we
must remember that J. S. Gott, our
produce man, at Berea bought this
year over si0,0O0O0 worth Of poul-
try from the farmers in this sec
tion. We need 10 make il $3.50. 900.
We can do IT by giving our fowls
better attention.
Berea College is becoming the
center Of pure bred stock: pure
bred liolstein cows. Duroc and
poland-China hogs, sheep and poul-
try.
The students must have the op-
portunity 10 study the stock at the
barns and in the pastures.
Farm Observation-Disclosures n
farm for profit, buildings, fences,
drains, tools. machinery. buying and
selling stock and many other sub
jects will be studied under Farm
Management.
The time 10 invest for biggest
profit on the farm is this winter,
either by taking a short course in
Agriculture or by studying the
long cold winter days reading farm
bulletins. agricultural papers and
laying plans on paper for next
years crops.
The farmer is now coming into
his own. To-day is the day Of OPP
portunity. Are you going to get
your share?
