the government has made available for
settlers under its irrigation projects re-
main unentered at this time.
Yes, I have travelled over and over
again the governments reclaimed lands
in the interest of making them known
through writings and lectures to the
people and to equip myself to answer
their questions, which come some days
in hundreds to this office. Being a
woman. / have made it my business to
find out the needs of the women who
have gone to spend their lives on the
governments reclaimed lands, and 1 try
to further their interests in every way
within my power.
THE project women are closer to one
another than the women in the east
because they are very dependent upon
each other. When they go from their
homes here they find that they must
make their lives entirely over in many
cases. and as matter of course they
must establish most of the insti-
buttons necessary for their daily life.
especially schools, churches and Sun
day schools.
Il recall especially the case of one
woman whom l questioned about her
life since her husband took up his
claim. She said that al first she thought
she would die of loneliness, but in time
several families moved into the same

6OHE approach of each presidential
inauguration calls forth it's quota
of historical research and recol-
lection; for then the memory of
the public pays tribute to the character
and deeds of the men and women who
have stood at the helm of the govern
ment and handled the social reins as chief
executive and mistress of the White House
through a stretch Of 12S years of national
history.
While history gives much of their public
life. il is most meager in its details of
personal tastes and in its record of the
methods of relaxation through which they
all must have at some time or other
sought relief from the duties and forrnali-
ties imposed by their position.
Gen. Washington, even judged by the
most radical modern standards, was
thorough all-round sporting man. From
his own letters. diaries. etc, it is plain
that he loved horse racing. fox hunting.

ing. farming and specializing. 1t is an
accepted fact that he loved a good horse
race and would journey even to Phila-
delphia to witness it.

tate upon her shoulders. and after the
revolution began she became min
istering angel to the suffering soldiery,
and at Valley Forge every idle minute
was devoted to knitting socks.
This habit acquired when the warm
fort to the half starved. poorly fed
patriots. was her constant amusement
or solace in later years. Even when
presiding over the presidential mansion
in New York and Philadelphia she al
ways wore little reticule on her arm
with her yarns. needles and a half-fn-
ished sock tucked away for the chance
moment that would give her an oppor-
tunity to make a few stitches.
Mrs. John Adams was a wonderful
housekeeper and manager. Poverty
had taught her in its most thorough
school. But her pet fancy was to write
long letters to her friends giving them
periences. Much of what is now pre-
served as record of Adams work
abroad is due to his wife's letters.
Jefferson loved to tinker with car
penters tools. always keeping a set in
his desk. While President he had them

helped him pass many lonely hours.
Mrs. Madson's main idea in life
seems to have been that of having a
good time. wearing pretty clothes and
being popular. Her real fad was the
possession of quantities of fancy tur-
bans, gay slippers and jewelry. No
more admired or popular hostess ever
presided in the White House. and

rived. recalling her own condition. she
lost no time in calling upon her new
neighbors, carrying milk for the ba by
and some goodies for the children. The
woman responded to her thoughtfulness
with due appreciation. In time other
families moved into the section and
again she saw to it that the incoming
women and children lacked for moth
doing all in her power to make the
strangers feel at home.
Then came a day when she invited
all the women in the district to spend
an afternoon at her home. and this be-
came the nucleus of a woman's club
which is today in touch with the new
est ideas in civic and domestic progress
and adapting to its own advantage
every available idea of which it APP
proves. The roads were bad in that
community and this group of women
persuaded the men to get together for
day and use their united strength in
mending them. their woman's part
being to cook and serve an appetizing
dinner for the men. This is just a
commonplace. actual occurrence, but 1t
illustrates how close together the
project women come to one another in
a very short time.
'T remember striking illustration of
the responsibility of these women, one
to another, in rather a sad case which
occurred in Nevada. There was sew
ing circle, made up for the most part
of young college-bred women. But one
of the members was a little Swedish
woman of practically no education or
social gifts. She was. however. an ex-
pert needlewoman and a good neigh

ample of neighborhood life among the
settlers in the west.
Then there was the case of a school
teacher who took up a claim in her own
name. She came here to talk the mat
ter over. She felt that while she was
not old she would some day become so,
and she believed that she would like
the free open life the western lands
offered. She had just $1,000. and she
determined to stake it all in establish
ing a home for herself on one of the
governments irrigated farms. You
know, it costs a woman more than a
man to work a claim as there is hard
labor such as blowing and planting
for which she must hire help.
This woman found forty acre tract
in Montana, not far from a town. She

a two-room shack and chicken house.

Some day at last shall look upon my charms
And give me towns, like children to my arms.
o sang a poet of the days before
~ Uncle Sam looked to his great
M arid, homeless lands of the west
~ and saw how he could transform
the unbounded stretches into generous
fields of grain to feed his growing
multitudes, cause the idle wastes to re-
sound with the labor of busy men and
women and make the silent hills re-
echo the laughter of the children who
were to be his future nation builders.
How this has been done is the story
of the United States reclamation serV-

direct the tributaries which supply the
great reservoirs of water and send it
flowing through the Gfe-giving canals

But, of course. there is a woman's
side, and that side of the work of this

their arrival on their claim, the woman

sources or relatives to care for her.
But during the six weeks of her illness
she wanted for no attention. Women
