RURAL COMMUNITY CENTER

A number of agencies have been
development of the rural community
center. Perhaps the most obvious is
the automobile, because it has en-
abled farm people to gather together
much more easily than they could in
the old days. It's matter of very
short run from corner to corner of
the average township, and it's easy to
get to evening meetings of one kind
and another. The state agricultural
colleges have done much to advance
this work, too, by arranging pro
grams for evening meetings, furnish
ing speakers and giving all the assist
ance in their power.
One other thing has been particu-
iarly helpful in this respect and that
has been the farm electric light and
power plant introduced within the
last few years. Many a rural school
house that formerly held its evening
meetings with the aid of dim and
smoky oil lamp or held no meetings
at all, now show a blaze of bright,
cheerful electric light from every
window on one or more evenings of
the week. In the first place electric
light makes good cheer, as compared
with the old methods. 1t is an easy
thing, too, to arrange the electric
lights just where they will do most
good.
But perhaps the greatest advantage
of electricity for the rural community
school house lies in the fact. that it
makes possible the use of stereopti-
can and motion pictures. For real en-
tertainment and for educational work
there are few things as good as the
motion picture. 1t speak universal
language. With its aid one can travel
to the four corners of the earth in
the short length of an evening. It's
straight educational value is tremen-
dous. A good film showing the latest
and best way of carrying on various
kinds of agricultural work can be
made clear in moment what a
speaker might have trouble in eX-
planning at all.
With all these agencies working in
it's favor, not the least of which is
electricity, the rural community CEN
ter is an assured success.
