That the women of the auxiliary to

Presidents Address.
The first paper on the program was
that of Mrs. w. w. Brown, of Armenia,
who has been the auxiliary's efficient
president this past year. Mrs. Brown,
in a clever manner, elaborated on the
assertion that life on the farm Is not
the round of deadly monotony that
many city jewellers think, and said that
to many country people the eternal
rush, crowds, ETC., of city life was just
as distasteful as are the long evenings
in the farm home, minus shows and
other amusements, to city people. Mrs.
Brown is of the opinion that one often
has to work hard in the city as well as
on the farm, and says that comparison
OF the farmers wife, daughter or sister
should be made with the business WON
an OF the city. instead of with the idler
who has nothing but social diversions
to occupy her time.
