PROTESTS AGAINST WOMEN ON FARMS RECEIVING SYMPATHY
(Bt Associated Press) CHICAGO, Jaru 4. Protests by farm women against being called overworked and downtrodden have followed steps taken by the American Farm Bureau Federation for a national association of women on the farm. ; "Farm women in numbers are beginning to realize the harmful effect of this old-fashioned publicity," declares Mrs. Izetta Brown of Kingwood, W. Va. a leader in this movement. "The farm women who have awakened to their own possibilities say quite frankly that they want to start a campaign of optimism about country life. .They don't want to be pitied, nor patronized, just understood and,
if possible, a litle idealized! They
would appreciate It for a change. For the first time the movement is
poneral all over the United States for
farm women to Join the farm clubs of
various sorts, Mrs, Brown reports.
" "By workinu in clubs in various
communities the farm women have
learned the value of organized effort
in improving country life conditions,'!
she said. Women Take Action
"I know of one little community of about 75 families in West Virginia where the school teacher and others had talked for years about piping running water into the school house from ' a spring just up the hill. The first year after the farm women organized into a club they saw to it that the spring water was ; piped Into -the school. "There is something easy to be done in each community that will Improve living and social conditions and each ! little success is leading the enterprising farm women on to higher ideals. "They are realizing their power in bringing about better school conditions ', for others' children and each time any- . thing is done to make the boys and girls happier and more contented, the mothers know they are increasing the chance sof holding the children on the farm. "I think that is the keynote of the . rebellion against the 'downtrodden and overworked' publicity. The mothers realize that only too often the children get the 'city folks' ' points of view when it is expressed as depreciating farm life."

way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with the!
finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hairviil look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at. any drug store. It is inexpensive and four ounces is ,all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never
fails. Advertisement
