said little of their hard lives, these
brave women who helped build UP the
plains. They accepted it Hncomplain-
ingly. When U country club met at
our house last week, my aunt was
there as a guest. We have 80 members
IN our club. Ten of them drove their

smothered her resilient disposition.
Her husband died after their third big
wheat crop-drank himself to death
celebrating it in Kansas City-and she
had the first real time of her life ever
since.
When she came to Kansas in the
early f%ifties, she drove a team herself
from St. Louis, with a ten-month-old
baby on the seat beside her. She and
her husband took up a claim 40 miles
from the settlement. Wandering In
dians were their only neighbors, and
terrified her daily by their company.
When they had been here less than a
year her husband returned to Illinois
and remained three months. She was
left alone to look after the crops,
shuck the corn, and take care of the
place. While he was gone her third
baby was born. Her only help was an
Indian sQuaw, who had CHANGED in
to beg a loaf Of bread and remained to
help the young mother in her ex-
tremity.

while it was happening to think
