Why does Indiana produce so
many rritersf
This question is often asked.
There are two reasons
First: Indiana, for many years
after its first settlement, was mac
cessibIe to the larger esH:ers Of
population
In the small inoculate eommuni-
ties of early time people preserved
their individuality.
In cities people are relatively
alike-they become alike by asso-
citation in large numbers, ::shey have
the same amusements and diver
sions-they 'hirer their amuse-
ments the same as having their
clothes made or employing the per-
formances Of other common SER
vices.
In country community people
are forced on their own resources
for amusements and diversions;
they become adopts at story telling.
practical joking, unique expression
and humorous simile-
Then there is the general influence
of pioneer life.
The open sky. the hills, the trees,
the sounds of the wind through the
forest; the cry of the owls by night,
life amid virgin nature stimulated
the imagination and vision
Before the open fre-plaees Of
early times, and from its glow and
warmth came human fancies in
story and song.
While but few of these original
| fancies may have been recorded for
posterity, yet their spirit, the abil-
lily 10 create then: them, does not die out
in one, two or. even three genera
tons; it is an Unborn spark that can
be famed to fame at will, and even
in now congested population and
high civilization with ali their let
tered traditions.
Here is the second reason why
Indiana produces 50 many writers
1t has been the assertion of the
human will.
1t is that spirit which says: "If
he can, why camp
For instance, years ago some
small town lawyer of Indiana may
have written a successful book.
Others in his and neighboring
towns said to themselves: "If he
can, why / camp
In this spirit many attempts were
made.
Many of them may have failed;
most of their manuscripts may not
have even seen the light of type.
But on the law Of averages, out
of the many failures, a few sue
ceeded and these in turn, through
the course of years, inspired others
with the same spirit: IF he can,
why / camp
This last may be the main reason
why Indiana produces so many
writer's. aside from that of location

LABOR NEEDED
ON PERRY FARMS
In Midst of BountifuI Harvest
Almost Impossible to Sc
cure Sufficient Help

New Bloomfield, Pa, July AL
though many workers have been
released through the cessation of
many war industries and many Per-
ry countians have come home since
the rehabilitation of the Army, the
farm labor shortage. felt in the
county during the past several years,
continues bad this year. This, too,
despite the fact that wages offered
for farm work are far in excess of
those offered during previous years.
In the midst or the harvest sea-
son, county farmers have adopted
several plans to solve the difficulty.
In many instances, wives and daugh-
tiers are going into the fields and
are helping to do some of the lighter
work. Travellers on the main line
of the Pennsylvania Railroad have
noticed large number of women SO
employed. In other instances the
farmers work together, thereby per.
forming their work more efficiently.
