The Woman's Club
Mel1Wood District

There can be no greater subject for
study than Civics. 1t should be part Of
the regular course of Club studies, and
following the suggestion of the Chair
man of the Committee of Civics, for
Prince Georges County, the next meet
ing of the Womans Club of Mellwood
district is to be given over to considera
tion of this subject.
The definition of the word shows
that iu relates to the people, or the Ma
ton rather than to the laws governing
those same people. "Civic pride,
means the pride of the people, as a
group, in the condition of their own
particular locality due to the perfect
cooperation of the people, with the ex-
ecutors of the laws, of the Authority.
Civics, therefore, relates to the spirit
of community. There can be no greater
subject at this time, when the entire
world seems impatient to settle down
into a condition of restful occupation,
after the strenuous years of war.
The love of Home, is not more fully
acknowledged than the love of Coun-
try and the affection person feels for
the town, or the neighborhood, where
the early years were spent is, maybe,
the basis for Civic pride,-it is, never
theess a higher kind of pride that
brings a stranger into community with
new constructive ideas, with large Wis
ion, with desire to promote the bet
terment, and to help in its, development.
The causes for this growth would nat
urally become the subject of investi-
cation by club addressing itself to
this subject and itwould, also be we'll for |
that club to remember all is not done |
when vote IF approval is entered on
the minutes of that meeting. 1t takes |
bravery, ON the part of those who may
thing before taking a stand for, or |
against it. 1t would be wise to read |
again the message of the President of |
the General Federation of Womans
Clubs, published in this column last |
week, in which every woman is urged |
to "Serve America. Let US indeed |
study this subject of Civics. Let us
also that true progress is |
more than voting in the |
4ffirmative.
The next meeting of the Club will be |
at the home of the acting Director, Mrs. |
Samuel Tayman, on the first Tuesday |
of March. Il is confidently expected |
that Mrs. Cory, the County President.
will be present, as we'll as Mrs. Chase
who, as Chairman for the County Civics
Committee, will have charge of the /
meeting.

Water Supply then and now

From the ancient Egyptian wate!
wheel to the modern automatic cleo
trio pump is a long stretch, but both
of these pieces Of machinery illustrate
an institution which has had is exist
ence throughout history wherever there
has been any degree of civilization. Tho
Egyptian along the Nile used the clum-
sy water wheel to lift water over the
bank of the river aud irrigate his fields
Ia small towns and cities the water
supply consisted of system Of car
rIers who used pack amin is bearing
water bags made of kin. The Romans
solved the matter of water supply by
conducting the water for miles across
the county.
Throughout history wherever men
have established any thing like civ
Ilized community they have made an
effort to organize aud improve the
matter of wafer supply.
On the American farms this question
of water supply mas always b en- OF
great importance. The needs Of live
stock. Of the household and frequently
of ,irrig ,tinn have made il Im ye. ativc
to have a well Dc ve.oped wafer supply
on the farm Usuaty, Of curse, it
comes from we IS, and IN the old days
those 1wells were served by buckets
pllced Oh the end OF long sweeps wAich
constitute very clumsy and incttc ent
N .thod of drawing the water from the
we'll Later came the cid wooden
hand pump which wasn't much better,
and later still the iron pump and tue
wind mi |. This last was the first
application Of power other than hu Aan
TO the pumping OF wafer. On great
many American farms ali Of these elder
methods have been supplanted by the
automatic electric pump which work
silently and efficiently twentY-four
hours in the day Ii draws water ire m
the well and stores 1t under pressure i'll
tank from which it runs to faucets ali
over the house and barn. When a Cei
tam amount of water is drawn out Of
a tank the pump starts automatically
and pumps in more water until he us
ing pressure stops IL. Thus finally tAe
whole matter OF water supply hao nael
taken off of the farmers mind auC
TUNED over to that best Of modem SER
vlCs, electricity.
And Of course the same electricity
Which does the pumping, lights the
house, does the milking, the sweeping
the washing, the cbuTning. the sep.
arating and hundred other farm task
