The Power of Superstition

The superstitious people of the east
ern countries will think that severe
rebuke was administered to the i'm
pudent and pushing people of the
western nations, when Lord Carnavon
discover of King Tut Ankh-Ameu' S
tomb, died as a result of an insect
bite. They will call it the punish
ment of the gods for violation of tue
mysteries of the East.
The existence of this supestitious
sentiment has been one chief reason
why those eastern countries have
remained stationary, while the west
ern lands nave advanced No body
of people eau make progress so long
as their conduct is influenced by the
thousands of irrational ideas with
which those lands are flooded.
The eastern peoples are not the
only ones whose lives are moulded by
superstitions There are many in
Our own land, perhaps among our
own aquainlauces Many people dare
not embark on any kind of new enter
prise or venture until they have con-
suited the ancient superstition or taken
advice based on the same, It's a
mental attitude that places barrier
IN the way of achievement.

Country Life Clubs

The country life club idea is grow
ing IN Wisconsin. We are not speak
ing here of country clubs-get the
distinction where city people GO for
recreation, but clubs made up of
farm folks who are trying to develop
rural leadership from within.
The country life club is founded on
the idea that the farmer is no longer
an individualist who must 60 it on
his own. 1t recognizes him as a
member of the nations basic industry
1t recognizes that if that industrys
problems are ever to be solved he
must solve them. And it is founded
on the bedrock proposition that as
the whole interests Of farming are
advanced the individual farmers will
be advanced.
So here Is the farmers open forum
his place to meet other farmers
help them and enlist their help. A
hundred farmers in community can
do many things that one cannot do.
Then there are the social features
the music that goes with the program
perhaps the presentation of plays
and dialogues, social games and last
but not least, enjoyable refreshments.
How interesting community can
be made thru good live club!
If city people have been getting
out of life in social way it is be-
ause they have been putting more
into it. The farmer has an equal
chance.
Have you a country life club in
your community? If you have supp
ort it to the limit and make it real
one. If you have not, you are miss
ing good bet and you ought to get

The country Home

Country people often express dis
a,isfaction with the houses they
mcupy and wish that they could enjoy
Il the modern conyeniences found in
H. dwellings,. They look with envy
N CITY relatives who have the advan-
tsups of modern methods of cooking
alnmbinp heating etc. However
NAN of these modern conveniences
a. now being enjoyed in country
homes winch are getting the new
aomestic equipment pretty fast.
Also there are Inconvenience in
ely life that go far to make up for
fese advantages. City dwellings are
Becoming very cramped. People are
hprded into little apartments where
nv furniture IS all jumbled into a
ess. with rooms so low and small
MAI the air must be bad much of the
fme. where there is no room to enter
Bin friends.
People also are often crowded in
Nth undesirable neighbOrs. whose
children have bad Influence over
hour own youngsters. When you
want to go to bed early and sleep
your neighbor in the apartment over

The SO called advantages of city
fife are tremendously costly. Your
little narrow contracted tenement

you would have to pay for a country

The country home on a pleasant
