But the rest of the colony--not for them
They are through.
The failure of the colony came when
they realized that hard work. long hour:
and small returns were the lot of ever
a successful farmer. They thought lif,
in the far west would be an ideal ex.
istence as forsooth it is, to those who
know how to live it. But these city
dwellers arrived in a bleak expanse OF
mesa covered with sagebrush which had
to be grubbed. They found nature in
the raw and they had none of the hardi-
hood or Spartan determination apparent
ly. of the pioneers of decade ago. They
did not stick. One by one, the colony
faded away as the "colonists" returned
to the big city. A. few remained two
years. A few fenced the land, built
houses. constructed roads, plowed and
titled the land and made somewhat of a
crop. But only few did those things.
Most of them spent considerable city
money, gave UP in disgust and left for
"home" and the bright lights Of old
Broadway. The roar and congestion of
the city looked good to them. They
were glad to get back.
Thousands of city jewellers dream of
chicken farms, ranches and picturesque
cowboys, pastures green and pure-bred
dairy herds, trees and flowers and new
mown hay. All of these. are to be seen
more or less in the country. But they
merely are adjuncts to country life.
He who would succeed on farm or
ranch must possess even in these effete
times, much of the spirit of the early
settlers. There are no more discourage
ments on the farm or ranch than in the
city. The hardships of country life are
vastly different from the hardships of
city life. They doubtless seem appalling
to city folks accustomed to the
conveniences of city dwelling and unac-
customed to the ways and customs of the
country.
Hence it is that large percentage of
city people who acquire longing for
rural life return to the city in a short
time, thoroughly disillusioned and disap:
pointed.
On the other hand, the big cities are
full OF farmer boys and girls who are not
getting on. who are in an unfamiliar. ele-
ment and who eventually escape back to
the farm. Not every lover of nature is
farmer. Not every city dweller who
discourses on crops and land while seat
ed beside a coy fire of winters eve
ming has the stuff in him of which pio-
neersaarc made. 1t is too bad that more
city people can not undergo the expert
ences of the Idaho Settlers" who went
back TO New York. 1t might make them
realize what the farmers do who feed the
city jewellers and it might counteract
some OF the selfishness that city jewellers
unconsciously acquire, when it comes to
the good things of life g.
Idealism is charming but when it
comes to farming, very practical Job is
in hand and it is no place for an amateur
or a gutter.

THE FLAPPERS REVOLT.

When Mrs. Henry Ford rebuked the
girl campers who crowded around her
motor car because they appeared with
overalls rolled above bare knees she
evidently started something-and that
something wasn't rolling the overalls
down. Officials of the Campfire, Girls,
and the Girl Scouts, and the New
York League of Business and Profess
sional Women have rushed to the de-
tense of their knickers, boomers and
overalls, while reinforcements come up
for Mrs. Ford.
The rapidity with which rebellions
spread is one OF the striking phases
of history. Someone in Paris shouted,
Down with the Bastile," and the
fight was on. Someone in America
says, "Down with them overalls," and
from Somerset, Pa. where the Parent
Teacher association had met to CEN
sure modern dress, the flapper's Mar
seillaise goes ringing through the ma
ton:
81 can show my shoulders -
1 can show my knees; -
I'm a free-born American
And can show what l please"
No mere man is competent, nor fool
hardy enough, to rush in with an opin-
ion. But it is hoped that nobody gets
her ldnickers torn in. the scuffle.--

CAUSED LAUGHTER IN CHURCH
Small Donald's Remark Too Much for
Sense Of Humor Of Those Who
Heard IL

This is printed for the benefit Of a
certain Los Angeles minister who Is
probably still wondering how 1t hap
pened that a certain portion Of his
erstwhHe decorous congregation
laughed ont loud in the middle Of the
offertory the other Sunday. This is
what happened:
It was Donalds first experience in
grown-up church though the little
chap had attended Sunday school.
When the collection was being
taken, his father placed the weekly
family Offering in the plate The pew
was a short one, and no other contri-
button was received from 1t.
Evidently this aroused Donald's
curiosity, for he blurted out, with all
the eagerness Of childhood trying to
understand:
PA, did you have to pay for the
whole row."
