Women Start School
Of Citizenship

Over five hundred women from
all parts of New England are
registered at the School of Citizen
ship conducted at the New Hamp-
shire State College under the aus
pices of the women of that state.
The main subjects considered at
the first assion were the policies
of the different political parties,
parliamentary practice and con-
temporaneous world history as it
affects the future women's vote.
i Good principles, good men and
good government must be women's
aim, according to the speaers, and
the women were advised to "carry
your gossip into politics that the
ills of our political life may be
cured"

Are We Losing The
Art Of Reading?

The printing press has helped
liberalize and free the people from
tyranny. Books and magazines and
newspapers have done much to dis
seminate knowledge and bring in
formation into the homes of the
people. They have promoted the
art of reading and stimulated the
desire to read more.
At the same time the very multi
tude of books and periodicals has
cultivated a desultory method of
reading, a desire to skim over
everything and digest little or
nothing. Classic writings. the
great books of history, biography
and fiction have in a measure gone
out of fashion. Solid reading"
as it is called, is not often indulg-
ed in, and the names of great
writer's whose productions will live
always are unfamiliar to many of
the present generation.
The excuse is that we live in a
very rapid age and there is no time
to read heavy literature. The rea-
son is that most persons have lost
their taste for history, for biogra-
ply, for good reading. They have
partaken of the froth for so long
they have lost the taste for the
substantial.

Judging BY Appearances
Utter Folly

Most people know that the his
torian Prescott produced h S
epoch-making works under the
handicap of i'll heath and defec-
tive eyesight, but comparatively
few are aware that he also had to
contend with misunderstanding by
his nearest and dearest. For many
years he was regarded by his fam
lily as a hopeless idler and was
constantly urged by them to un-
dertake something useful. He
spent a great deal Of time at his
desk in his study, but when the
members of his family entered the
room, the desk was bare, except
for an ink stand.
Whether the sensitiveness which
is so often associated with un-
usual gifts was responsible for his
silence, it is impossible to say, but
for ten years he submitted to re-
proaches and faultfnding. Then
his first great historical work was
produced and the household critics
were dumb.
This little story from a great
mans life is one more illustration

Planning for Foliage

No farmhouse appears to the
best advantage without suitable
setting of foliage, just as paint
ing needs a frame to give it a
finished effect.
The planting need not be elabor-
ate but the arrangement should be
logical and practical. The trees
about the house are both useful
and ornamental, they frame the
views of the house from the road,
at the same time shading the
ground and preventing the radia-
tion of heat, which is perhaps as
great a source of discomfort in the
house as the direct rays of the sun
on the roof and walls.
Working drawings of the COM
pleted home may be secured from
the Division of Rural Engineering
at Washington.

of the fact that it is easy to mis-
Judge those who are very close to
US. Prescott's friends and rela-
tives thought of him as an ldler,
wasting his time, when in all
probability he was doing work
more important than any of them
were doing. - we keep in mind
that the people who seem to us
nothing about, that those who ap-
pear to US unfeeling, may hide
under a cold exterior, depths OF
tenderness of which we have no
conception, we shall save our
selves some self-reproach in the
days to come.

the back of the wing. If properly
insulated, the ice bunkers need
only be filled once every week or
two, thus eliminating the bother
of transporting ice daily from a
more or less distant ice house, and
the annoyance due to carrying the
ice through the kitchen. Fuel stor-
age space is provided under the
roof of this one-story wing, so that
no matter whether wood or coal
is used in the cook stove, the carry
is short and all under cover.

BUILDING A
HOUSE ON THE PIECE
MEAL PLAN
Provides for Additional Space
AS Finances Permit

a farmhouse constructed on the
piecemeal plan is one that appeals
to persons who buy as they go and
build as their pocketbooks permit.
Such a house has been developed
by the Rural Engineering Division
of the United States Department
of Agriculture. "A house better
than Jack built" is the designation
given to this house which is des-
cribed as handy, convenient, cap
able of extension as the finances
of the owner and the size Of his
family justify" Just suppose say
the Engineers that Jack is young
farmer starting out with limited
capital on a 160-acre farm. To be-
gin with, he and his wife need only
a small house, which consists of
two rooms on the first floor, one of
which is used temporarily as a
kitchen, and two bedrooms up
stairs. In this plan the chimney is
temporary and will need to be
razed when permanent additions
are made. There is a full cellar
underneath the building, access to
which is by means Of temporary
hatchway. A permanent, inside
cellar stairway is provided for in
the fist addition. If the young
farmer can not afford to put up
front porch, he may add this con-
venience later on, but for the sake
of appearance and comfort he
should include the porch at this
time.

Newark post., 1919-07-30
Making First Addition

AS MS farming operations eA-
pand and more money becomes
available, Jack may add to his
small domicile kitchen and laun-
dry, and may install running
water system, than which no fea-
ture of the house is more neces-
sary to the comfort of the family.
In fact, if his pocketbook will per-
nit, it is advisable that Jack build
his house on this plan at the out
set because it provides place
where he and the hired man may
wash up and may also provide in
gress to the cellar. A small closet
is provided here for an ironing
board. In the kitchen there is a
broom closet which provides stor-
age for cleaning utensils. Used
dishes are, transferred from the
dining room to the kitchen through
a pass cupboard or dresser which
is next to the sink and drain board,
whence the washed dishes may be
removed and placed in cupboards
on either side of the sink, where
they are available from the kitchen
and dining room. Reserve dishes,
such as desserts, may be placed
in this pass cupboard, where they
are accessible from the dining
room when required. These uses
of the pass cupboard save the
housewife many needless steps be-
tween the two rooms.
In one corner of the kitchen are
a storage pantry, work table with
drawers, and a cupboard conven-
iently arranged for the prepara-
tion of food. The range is handy
both to the sink and work table.
The space in front of the chimney
can be utilized during the summer
season for kerosene oil stove.
Kitchen Freed from OdOrs
Above the two stoves is a built
in hood, ventilated by means of a
register which opens into hue
adjoining the smoke fiue. The air
in the ventilating flue being warm
ed by the heat of the smoke f1ue,
tends to raise and create a draft
which removes odors and heat
from the kitchen. The triple case
ment windows of the kitchen and
the several openings in the laun-
dry assure ample ventilation,
which will add greatly to the COM
fort of the housewife during the
summer months. 1t would be de-
sirable for Jack to include in this
first addition the open porch ad-
jacent to the laundry which, if
screened, can be used for dining
purposes during the summer.
AS Jacks family increases or as
he needs more farm labor, it be-
comes necessary to expand the ac-
commodations and he therefore
may add an additional bedroom
and a bathroom. This involves a
one-story addition to the house. All
these improvements go to promote
general livableness, as house is
not real home unless every part
of it is in constant use.
Providing an IcehOuse
Finally, after several years, if
the demands for additional space
continue, Jack may add another
,second~hoor bedroom, which can
be placed directly over the first
story bed chamber. Also at this
time, if conditions justify, Jack
can add one-story wing at the
rear, consisting of an ice house
with ice bunkers which provide re-
frigeration for household foods
and for the cooling Of milk and
cream stored in the dairy room at

N. EDWARDS
.REV|VES HER
SUIT AGAINST.
MILK SOCIETY.
Action Which A { t racted
Widespread Attention Re-
newed in Superior Court
Today.

Mrs. Minnie Edwards, the VALLEY
woman whose recent suit against the
Imperial Valley Milk Producers As
sociation attracted widespread atten-
! ton and focused the eyes of the trade
of the state on the Valley situation
has revived her action, which was
originally dismissed before it reached
the courts.
Through District Attorney E. r
Simon, who this week has filed to-
tai Of five actions against the CO.
operative society, Mrs. Edwards re-
newed her charges in seeking re-
! lief from the supervision and con-
tract control of the organizations
"The causes which impelled Mrs
| Edwards to drop her original action
have now been removed and she eX-
presses desire to bring the matter to
Va definite issue was the only COM
ment the district attorney would
make.
In the main, the complaint filed for
Mrs. Edwards is similar to that uti-
lized for the five preceding suits. She
alleges that the agents or represen-
tativs of the association, to induce
her to become q member, represented
as follows:
| That all of the creameries then in
operation (April "a. 1919 in the I'M
perial Valley were dishonest, and that
each and every one Of the dairymen
who were delivering milk to said
crameries were being cheated and
robbed in this:
They were being given short
weights as to the milk and cream
delivered and were being given low
er percentages of butterfat than the
products contained.
That unless she at once became a
member, when the association opened
IT'S creamery, she would be unable
to dispose Of her milk and cream, as
the private creameries in the Valley
woald be absorbed or driven out of
business.
That she would receive 81 a pound
for her butterfat, instead of about
one-half that amount, which she was
then receiving from the privately
owned creameries.
That the association would only re-
ceive the milk and cream Of those
who were members.
