My Country, My District,
My Home.
Mrs. Laura Rose`•'ephen of Runt-
indton, Government. Delegate of the
Women's Institute.
(Concluded from last issue)
THE. DISTRICT;—To make us
love our country and feel proud of it,
our country ought to be lovely. No
matter how grand the • natural 'sur-
roundings are if the roadsides are al-
lowed to be made use of as a dumping
ground for tree prunings, old cans
and other refuse, .the scenic effect is
lost in the wayside rubbish.
We should all feel such a civic pride
in our towns, village•and rural parts
that we wouldn't even throw an empty
paper bag from the buggy as we drive
along. It is quite within ti,a scope
of Institute work to agitate f .r good
roads. N,sthing gives a distr'et a bet-
ter name than well made, e ell kept
up roads. They are a pleasure to both
man and beast.
Each woman is doing her best in
her awn locality, seeing that tlia men
clean up the'road in front of the farm,
cut the weeds and plant trees. Each
hone should have a bit of lawn bord-
ered with flowers. A neatly kept place
is shared by all who pass that way.
No country can make the most of
itsreseulces or cultivate: the highest
aifl 111;1936 education stands foremost
in`its activities.: Thi west is a :little
more progressive in this respect than
the east. It is -more lavish in its ex-
„meas...
x-„mrias... has better buildiees
equipaieft and pays the teachers higher
salaries.
Do not be. stingy regarding scheet
taxes, and it is the bachelors that
should be taxed aonllle, They have
no little boots and stockings to buy,
rl9 little mouths to fill
I hope the time will come when
every school board will have at least
two women on it. A. woman knows
a child's needs fax better than a man
does, Every Institute should have a
school committee, to visit the schools.
Then perhaps the schools would not
be the dusty dirty smelling places
they are, It is •a disgrace to our
generation that our schoolhouses are
only scrubbed twice a year. Every
school room should have a drinking
fountain, a covered crock or tin with
a faucet, and each child should haye
his or her own cup. These little things
prevent epidemics of sickness brea k-
ing out in the schools.
I sincerely wish I could get the
Institutes of every district to see the
necessity and value of having the
girls taught plain cooking and sewing
and the boys manual training while
attending public school.
In the 19th century stress was laid
on education. We have seen how
quickly civilization and culture may
• 'overt to barbarism. During the 20th
century let the emphasis be placed
on character and develop a race of
men and women noted for high ideals,
The district has its personal rights,
which should be respected. For in-
stance you have hens, I have a garden,
new it would not be possible for these
two to get together. It isn't as easy Mr and Mrs L Brisson were the
to lock up my garden as it is for my guests of Peter Ducharme, Brisson
neighbor to shut up his hens, The Line, last Sunday.

It is the parents duty to keep their
