Conveniences Have Their Drawbacks • A farmer was lamenting the other day that modern "conveniences" were destroying 'the sociability of country life. Neighbors no longer meet and exchange greetings and gossip at the post office and the corner store. The mail is delivered and taken up daily at the farmer's own gate. if neighbors have. business to transact they use the elephone, instead of driving over, and so five minutes suffices for what would formerly have taken an hour. More more, the tendency is for the young people to 'hie them off to town by automobile in the evenings, instead of holding socials and concerts of their own, And s•, it is coming to pass that families can live on adjoining firms, and the ., dulte scarcely ever meet, t'inv happen to go to the sante church or Erelong to the farmer's chit) or t v n . inrdtute. Much •as the telephone, rural mail delivery and the auto are doing, to relieve the isolation of country life, and to save litne for the farmers, the change they aro hri;rg'ing about Is. not all, gain.
