or pass law and, presto, we should be happier
ever after! Now women are beginning to realize
that nothing is "going to save the world in the
long run but individual goodness on the part of
each man and woman in it." Women have found
that making better homes, raising better babies
and leading better life is worth more to society
than being ten times chairman and a dozen
times secretary" This being true-and who
will dispute it?-the club woman suggests that
about every ten years of it's existence each or
ganizaton shall "disband for ninety days with
the understanding that only those start up again
for which there IS an insistent demand"
Doubtless, if this plan were tried, not more
than so per cent of the women's organizations
of the land would come back after the 9O-day
vacation.
If you belong to a number of organizations,
just stop and think if each of them should at
some time disband for ninety days, at the end Of
that time how many would find an insistent de-
mand for reorganization? 1t would solve big
problem for the weak-willed and SUPERFICIAL
women who want to get out gracefully from
some organization and have not the courage to
just step out. And then think how much better
work would be done by the remaining organiza-
lions and how much more time the average pub
lic-sprted woman would have to get acquainted
with herself and her family, thus assisting in
the only thing that is going to this world
in the long wrong, individual goodness the
part of each man and woman in it."-Duluth
Herald.

OUT OF SEASON

OUT OF SEASON
When the frost king is doing his darnedest,
When the frost king is doing his darnedest,
And the meadows are sere, it's the time
of the year
When the hardy seed catalogue comes.
It's rubicund beets and tomatoes,
It's corpulent carrots and corn,
It's mammoth sweet peas bring a tropical
breeze
To month that is bleak and forlorn.
Then take out my pencil and paper,
lay out my plots with rule,
And long piece of string have found is
the thing
To use as gardening tool;
NY garden is lush and prolific
AS soon as the seeds have been sown,
And my peas and my beans and my various
Are the finest that ever were grown.
I know (for experience teaches)
That dark disappointment is sure,
That summer and spring disillusion will
bring,
And that most of my crops will be poor,
But now, being knee-deep in winter,
l dig and hoe with song,
For the catalogue (seed) never mentions a
weed
And catalogue can not be wrong!

p" have heard great deal IN recent
w years about the married woman who
keeps on working outside the home. To
men she is menace-a person who works
when she does not have to, and thereby deprives
some bread-winner of a needed job. To some
social observers she is "sign of the times"-a
restless person who takes job because her
home does not satisfy her need for activity.
A bulletin just issued by Mary Anderson, d-
rector of the Women's Bureau of the Depart
ment of Labor, sheds new and interesting light
the subject.
In 1890 only one married woman out of % in
the United States had job outside the home.
In 1920 the proportion was out of II. Since
1920 it undoubtedly has risen still further; and
none of the figures includes widows, Divorces
or women who are separated from their hus-
bands.
So much for the increase in the number Of
married women wage earners.
Why do they do it?
"The number of married women who work
solely because they do not like to stay at home
or because they desire to follow some chosen
occupation is so negligible to be scarcely
worth considering" says the report.
Most of them, it points out, are working
because of the high cost of living and to help out

TOO MANY CLUBS?
THE December Woman's Home Compan-
ion, club woman with too many committees
and offices her hands says: "The bitter
truth is am socially insolvent. l am well with
in my budget, but in respect to organization, So
cieties and movements am living beyond my
means. Committees-to my husbands rude
phrase-are running me ragged and clubs are
clubbing me to DEATH" This woman believes
there thousands of other women who are in
the same fix and so she discusses the question at
some length and offers few suggestions for the
elimination for organization for women. Among
other things this women has discovered that
much time is wasted in committees by fruitless
discussion. Certain organizations overlap in
their work Some really quite essential to
the community, others only essential to few
of their members and maintained thru SEN
timental interest not to meet definite need
either for the members or the community Some
of the clubs organizations under which this
woman chafes she does not withdraw from be-
cause she is too "loyal'. That is, they are con-
nected with the college, she attends or the
ity to which she belongs. And so her endless
round of duties and committee meetings goes on
and on, yet when she sits down and thinks of the
accomplishments of busy club day she has lit
tie to show for the time and effort. So she asks:
'Isnt there something that can be done to lift
the burden from the shoulders of us good women
whose consciences won't let us refuse?" She
points out the fact that women are getting past
the day when they thought that all that was nee
essary was to form committee or start club

widely known for his interest IN civic,

occasion of his eighty-second birthday.
and wishing him speedy recovery
from injuries sustained when struck
by an automobile several months ago.
1t was while overtaken by a storm,
which caused him to turn homeward
from trip to a meeting of the West
End Citizens Association, that he was
struck by an automobile, within a few
doors of his home, and suffered frac-
tured leg. His condition rapidly is i'm

A week ago, Mrs. Sunny suffered a
fractured leg in a fall down some steps

pitable to new methods and ideas than
they were IS years ago.
"Our cities are no longer downtown.
Methods of transportation and our fine
highways make the idea of living in the
country perfectly feasible. The high
ways are there to stay. They will be-

automobiles will never stop, but will
improve and traffic will move more
speedily and less dangerously.
Youngsters Need Country Life.
1--WE learned long ago that we are
doing the children of our homes great
wrong when we shut them away from
the sunshine and air and room to roam
of the country. 1t was never intended
that they should be deprived Of these
things. The land and the sunshine be-
long to the children. It is theirs by
natural right. And they need these
things as truly as q rose bush needs
good soil and sunlight.
THE youngsters all know this In these
days I doubt that there is a child
over years of age in this country who
does not know that the better and hap
pier place is out in the field and among
trees. There is no swimming pool in
the world that hits boys fancy like q
deep pool in turn of the creek.
1.-THE physical, mental and moral
whoesomeness of our children depend
much on giving them the most natural
environment possible and all the aSso-
citation of parents with them which time
will allow. Well, that is just giving the
children nature as is, and freeing homes
as much as possible from drudgery.

to live in the city. And think the time

do these things"
What are some of the striking diff
ferenceS between present homes and the
home of the future, as you vision
| them?" Mr.. Ford was asked.
1.-THE home of the future will bt
so constructed that it will be almost
temperature proof, hence warm in Win
ter and cool in Summer" he replied
Heat will be derived from electricity
All Of the mechanical operations about
the home-cleaning, washing. cooking
etc.-will be done by electricity, as
many now are, but the present processes
will be improved, refined, cheapened.
End of Can-opener Cooks.
Speaking of cooking-you remember
what said about the factory removing
taSk-labor from the home? Well, where
is there more drudgery than in cooking
and in washing dishes? We have let
the laundry take the Monday wash
Why can't we let some other service
take over the cooking and dishwash-
ing?
1.-THE homes of the future will have
no cooking inside. Individual cook
houses and kitchens will disappear.
There will be community culinary GEN.
tiers where every variety of food de-
sired will be scientifically cooked and
delivered to homes, much more cheap
ly done than individual cooking can do
it, and generally much better done
Power, heat, light for these COM
munity centers will be centrally devel-
oped or taken off the wires from hydro
electric, gas, oil or coal power plants,
at a cost much below the combined
cost now of these elements and the
kitchen equipment of homes.
TOO much drudgery in the home!
Too many homes badly located, without
sun and air and play room outside for
the children! Altogether too much
waste going into light, heat and cook
ing, because the whole thing is not
scientifically planned and planned on q
community scale.
1.-THE men who plan the new con-
veniences and design the homes Of the
future are making a greater history
than they realize, and it is delightful to
see how receptive the people are. The
new methods are Immediately adopted.

against established habits and tradi-
tons. Our people are becoming accus-
