Accustomed as the city woman is to running hot and cold water, electric appliances, gas and furnaces, telephone and a quick delivery system, she would find herself strangely out of place if she had to preside over a farm home. The farmer's wife knows that her burdens are increased by the absence of these conveniences. For a number of years she has been agitating the physical improvement of farm homes and premises in order vthat she may be relieved of drudgery and'fiave more time for. the enjoyment of social life. She is seeking an elevation of the home, so that it will not be a basis only for farm operations, but also a center of genuine culture. The first conference of Indiana farm women, held a few days ago at the call of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' associations, discussed
various phases of rural life, but the outstanding
demand of speakers, most of them wives of farmers, was for better- homes and the development of an active community spirit. The basic needs of rural life, the speakers as
serted, were not without, the realm of attainment and will come if the women manifest their interest in all problems and causes pertaining to their homes and to . the vocational calling of
their husbands. An active participation in the!
social and political life of their communities,
some speakers thought, would speedily bring about an improvement in the tone of rural life. "The trinity of the farm woman's needs," said Mrs. Lillian Pierce, of Henry county, "is the trinity of needs of the farm woman's husband and their children better business, better farming and better living." At another point she
said: "Our youne people have been socially
starved. And with all our abundance, we coun
try people have not always nourished ourselves
as well as we thought, not from any penurious-
ness, but because we farm women had not been
taught, as we ought to have been, the scientific value of foods and the properties of combinations
of foodstuffs. We need to be informed, and our girls need to be informed, of the chemistry of the
kitchen."
The tempestuous applause which greeted
many statements of the speakers showed very
clear that the Indiana farm women intend to go after this problem in a determined manner that will result in remedying conditions which now are burdensome and militate against; the development of a rich and full country life. Unquestionably many of the irksome conditions in rural life will disappear before assaults of education in which the farmer's wife will be able to incorporate in her home the appliances and conveniences which are believed to be indispensable by the city housewife. Rural life will take on a new charm for many women and girls if their estate can be improved, their schools and churches can offer new messages of cheer and enlightenment, and their social activities be enhanced and increased. The day may not be so far off, as one speaker said, when the country boys and girls will cease going to the cities for entertainment, and when city boys and girls will find amusement and recreation in the social activities and festivities of the rural districts.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" ' JUST LOVETHAT'S ALL John Golden, the great theatrical producer, when asked as to the t method of training given to him in his youth by his mother, replied: "She didn't train me she just loved me!" No wonder that this man has been such a remarkable success. With just one play, "Lightnin," he has broken all records for a single run and that a play that Frank Bacon, its star and author, tried for ten year3 to sell! , There are many men and women doing marvelous things in the world because somebody just loves them that's all. Love will lead a man higher than any power In creation. And the lack of It will burn his soul out. v The first development in the child is love for its mother and father. Human beings rarely give up the fight of life because they have been less favored than others as far as material affairs are concerned. It's the waiting for love that doesn't come that pulls down the shades of the windows of one3 heart. The unusual thing about love Is that you don't have to explain it or define it. It just works and does what it is here for. And all the beauty and happiness which it brings along is distributed far and wide. Even the dumb animals crave love and affection. The other evening I saw a picture of a woman playing with a dozen or more wild , animals lions, bears, tigers, wild cats as though they were kittens. Anyone could see that she loved them and that they loved her. Watch a dog and his master. Many a dog has died of a broken heart when deprived of the one he loved. How much more powerful must the love of human beings be! Just love that's all. It will do what nothing else can. Love conquers, softens, builds, forgives and guides. If you crave and lack love, there is one way to get it by giving what you have to others. Love begets love.

THE AGE OF CRIME. "I think I wll embark in crime, make lawlessness my goal; why sweat and labor for a dime, when one can swipe a roll?" Thus spake young James, a growing lad, a youth of grace and charm; "I would not do it," said Li3 dad; "crime is a false alarm The spring is comma: when the brooks through ferny dells will glide; and in their cells the weary crooks will wish tb,ey were outside. There are a mil lion crooks iii jail, who can't enjc v the spring; they fi.sured out that swiping kale would be the easy thing. They looked with scorn upon those who
wrought with scythe or axe or saw; they went their way and soon were caught by minions of the law. I'd hate to languish in a cell, my face againr the bars, when free men raise their college yell, beneath the shining stars. I'd hate to have a wall of stone around my dragging frame, when cheerful auto horns are blown by lads who play the game. Outside the men who walk aright, in virtue's narrow way, are sampling every known delight, enjoying every day. The spring is coming on eftsoons! I'd hate to be in
jail, when birds are warbling ragtime tunes in every verdant vale! But go your way, my sunny son, his weird each man must dree." Replied the lad, "The honest moa is good enough for me."

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Years Ago Today
GAINSBOROUGH Every one is familiar with the Little Boy Blue. Indeed, we might say that we were brought up with him from infancy, for Mother Goose's Melodies belong to the literature of the nursery. Our childish imagination enjoyed painting that landscape of meadow, corn, sheep and cows, down to the foreground of the Little Boy Blue
under the lraycock fast asleep. Byi the means of those imaginary colors, j we had a pastoral landscape corre-j EiKinding in a measure to similar sub-l
jrvLo ixicti. nave sprung iruiu uie nanu of that genius called Painting, to whom Campbell alludes as the "serenely silent art." But thej-e is another Elue Boy, although he is not part of the household
, like our dear little sleephead, yet cop
ies or his picture are familiar to all of us. We read that Gainsborough's painting of the "Blue Boy" owes its fame not from its merit as a portrait, but because the young son of Mr. Buttall was painted dressed entirely in blue, to contradict Reynolds' theory that blue was not a proper color to use broadly in a picture. Thomas Gainsborough was born at Sudbury in Suffolk, in 1727, and died in 17S8. A biographical article says of him that "Nature was his teacher, and the woods of Suffolk his academy." Here he would pass in solitude his youthful days in making sketches of an old tree, a marshy brook, a few cattle, a shepherd and his flock, or any other accidental objects that were presented. From Sudbury he went to London, where he commenced portrait painting. Gainsborough considered his portraits superior to his landscapes or fancy compositions, but posterity has reversed his judgment and marked him as the first and best of English landscapists. Gainsborough also excelled in genre subjects, as is evident in his "Cottage
Door," and "Shepherd Boy in a Storm." His generosity was unbounded, as for example if he painted an infant from a cottage, all the tenants of the humble roof generally participated in the profits of the picture. Needy relatives and unfortunate friends, also, found in him a spirit that could not deny. It is a pleasure to know that the "Blue Boy" i3 to be included in the famous picture contest to be held here beginning March 13. How applicable to Gainsborough are these closing lines from Victo Hugo's poem entitled "The Portrait of a
Child," addressed by the poet to the painter of the picture. We can only translate the lines literally, being with
out the gift of rhyme: "Doubtless somo fairy to thy cradle came. With the seven colors that in the sky Suspends the prism aerial,
Some roses of the dawn humid and early. Some fires of the aurora boreal, Made a palette Ideal For thy pencil magician! " KATE V. AUSTIN.
