Modern Form Of Journalism

Two faetors-the telephone and the

modern newspaper being able to cut
it's time units from hours to minutes
and sometimes to seconds. OF the
two, the telephone is the more gener-
ally used, for a newspaper without
telephones wculdb be helpless in a race
with its competitors.
In days Of old the reporter had to
rely upon his legs, a street a or a
horse and buggy in order to get to
the scene of an important news event.
Under such circumstances it often re-
quired several hours to cover one
single ordinary assignment.
Nowadays, the telephone, both the
local and long distance service, en-
@bles newspapers to keep in touch
with every news event, large or small
in the district they serve. Reporters

farmers in the eastern, southern and

per cent have a WOman's magazine

Through some eight hundred cap
able, representative farm women, Mrs.
Puncke has been able to reach into
almost 1900 homes, to learn what
the opportunities for reading. educa-
ton and recreation are for the aver
age farm wife.
Need for, Libraries
"There is a decided need for tray
cling libraries" says. Mrs. Puncke.
Less than half of these women have
public libraries near them and only
about 20 per cent Of them are making
any use Of the facilities which their
nearest towns offer. The distance,
the fact that the library is open only
a few hours a day, or a few days a
week, and the uncertainty Of getting
to town to return books are among
the reasons given why farm wives do
not take out books from the public
libraries"
The farmers wife will be able to
solve many of her problems and en-
rich her life when she learns the val
ne Of organization, according to Mrs.
Puncke. Scarcely 80 per cent Of the
women living on farms have Joined
community betterment clubs. Less
than 20 per cent belong to women's
clubs, educational or social.
Brighten Lives
At best the farm woman's life is a
full one, and there seems to be little
room for recreation. Within the home
