Farmer's Creed
The life of the farmer has changed
rapidly in the last couple of decades.
Even one decade makes a difference.
Today there will be only a few in-
trinsic changes noted in this piece
written in dune 1943, by Watt Vernon,
"a country bov who knows both sides
of farm life One who has lived in
both country and city, vet prefers
conntry it appeared in the New
lbeia, La.. Iberian under the head of
"The Faialer's Creed".
Here it is:
1 am the farmer.
1 live by hard work and the sweat
of my brow,
.1 work in the sim and the rain and
my hours are long and my duties un-
ending.
1 seek not fame nor fortune but my
life is one of the little things humdrum
to the city man, full of drudgery but
rich in contentment and peace.
1 am the first stop on the produc-
tion line of mankind for 1 start the
e'aiir materials of food, fibre and tim-

STIFF UPPER LIP CAUSES
TROUBLES
Why do women live longer than
men as a general thing i- A Detroit
psychiatrist says that it is because
they are emotionally more demon-
strative than men, says the Peterbor-
ough Examiner. Women talk- a great
deal, and they say they think with
a great freedom when they are vexed
or overstrained, they are likely to
weep; when they are angry they -have
nerve -storms, or they speak their
minds with extreme bitterness. Man,
on the contrary. tend to bottle up their
emotions and to keep a stiff upper lip.
Result, the men suffer from diseases
which have their root in tension to a
far greater extent than do women.
We cannot say anything about this
theory because we have no medical
knowledge. However, we have a
small measure of horsesense, and we
think that the Detroit doctor may be
right. And who is to blame We
think that the mothers of the rare
must bear some of the guilt, if men
are emotionally repressed.. Who is al -
