OF THE sturdy lad.

TO THE fleshpot land,
AND HATED it all,
AND NEVER belonged.
BUT WAS wise enough.
TO LINGER around.
AND THEN at the end.
TO TAKE what he'd earned.
AND GO back again.
TO THE great wide West.
AND If I were you.
I'D DREAM of that.
AND THEN get up.
FROM MY green porch chair.
AND STRETCH myself.
AND LAUGH out loud.
AND TELL nav and the kids.
1T WAS time for bed.
AND GO on to bed.
AND HAVE a good sleep.
WHILE THE golden fields.
KEPT GROWING all night.
FOR ME- and nav.
AND THE Willard kids.

A quarter Of a million women In
England are now working more or less
regularly on the land, says the London
Observer. The great majority are vii
lage women who go out from their cot
tages and work for the farmers. Seven
thousand are in the new land army,
which employs women who are re-
Cruited for a certain term and sends
them wherever they are required.
The women in the land army enlist
either for II or six months. In case OF
IL months they receive two complete
outfits free, consisting Of dress,
corduroy breeches, strong boots, leg
gings, overaIls and hat. They also get
for the year one jersey and one mack
intosh. They are given four or six
weeks free instruction at a training
center. Their pay on the farm ranges
from 50 to IS a week.
For girl who joins the army for six
months there is no training. She goes
straight away to the land and begins
on the work requiring less skill. Serv'
ices Of women enrolled In the land
army are available for timber cutting
and hay baling.
