I said to a man who stood at
the gate of the year, 'Give me
a Tight that 1 may tread safely
into the unknown,' and he
replied, `Go out into the dark-
ness and put your hand into
the hand of God. That shall be
to you better than a Tight and
safer than a known way:'

Beginning Jan, 29st at 'i.[at p.m.
there is going to 'he a series of farm
broadcasts under the general treading
Farmers' Radio Forton, 'There will be
11 broadcasts, one each week until the
series is completed.
IND.. H. If. 11anuant, who has 'Beard
a recorded sample broadcast, writes as
follows: "It t is exceptionally good, the
(best thing ni its kind 1 have ever
Beard. It seem. to use that it is going
to be so good that you cannot recom-
mend it trio highly to your people."
In order that farm people can get
the ntoa't educational value out of
these 'broadcasts, a movement is being
launched to ,qct listening groups est-
ablished throughout the entire prov-
ince. This movement was initiated by
farm- leaders Ibut -the provincial gov-
ernment is gluing financial assistance
to make possible office facilities in
Toronto. This Toronto office will give
guidance to, and carry on correspon,
Bence with, the local listening groui,s.
i)lr, Leonard Harman has been ate
pointed provincial secretary anti his
office in 'Toronto is located at .38
'Duke street.
There need :he' no definite size for
a listening .group. :1n aggregation of
fifteen to thirty people is what could

would be secretary, to carry on some
correspondence with the Toronto of -

4lerr is an ntpportinlity for Its all to
give support to a movement that will
'be mutually helpful to ourselves and
our neighbors. As farmers we leave
everything to gain aitd nothing to

'promoting these listsning'groups. Wait
who have been. interested enough to
read this article thus far should take
the initiative and call in your neigh -

clubs. If we are not willing and int-
erested enough to put forth this little
bit of concerted effort for the ,vclfare
sof our industry, agriculture is inured
in a helpless state.
Our farm 'papers are favorable .to
the idea and no doubt will convey ge-
