Patrick, Asst Cashier “Drapers Self Culture Mothers’ Club’’ Somewhere it has been Haiti, and charged, against our government that while it was most active in the study and furtherance of all matters pcrtainig to argriculture, and the raising of stock, it was strangely in diflierent to the methods, good or otherwise, improved or old fashion ed, employed in the growing of its most important crop of all —its crop of future and, lev us trust, better citizens. Recently, however, our National eyes have been opened to this grave and reprehensible error, and the government has remedied its former negligence by offering aid to, and asking aid from that class compris ing both those in dire need of ad vice and help, and those most com petent and able to give—the moth ers of America. There are now, if I mistake not, three mothers in the government employ whose sole duty it is to pro mote the welfare of the country’s children by advising with mothers, disseminating a deeper knowledge of food values, hygiene; of better ways of, not house-keeping, but home-making, etc. In connection with this, and pos sibly part of the same movement, there has come into being the “Na tional Congress of Mothers’’, a Representative of which it was re cently Cochran’s pleasure and privi lege to welcome and entertain. “The Draper’s Self Culture Mother’s Club” was organized on December 13, 1913, at Mrs. Henry Bullard’s residence by Mrs. Mundy, the Representative above referred to, electing as its officers Mrs. J. J. Taylor, I’res.; Mrs. I). E. Duggan, First Vice Pres.; Mrs. R. J. Mor gan, Second Vice Pres.; Mrs. J. A. Walker, Treas.; Mrs. J. H. Mullis, Secretary; and Mrs, Henry Bul lard, Corresponding Secretary, In a brief but enthusiastic talk upon the subject of Self Culture, Mrs. Mundy introduced the Club to the ten volumes of Draper’s Self Culture Series, pointing out their broad scope, their high ideals, the material help contained between the covers, to those who wish to devel op!' all that is good and beautiful in the little human “plant” en trusted to their care. In the introduction to the first volume , the reader is led to distin guish between Culture and what is often mistakenly called such, the real from the superficial and the sham. That the knowledge of those things vitally concerned with human advancement is of more im port than familiarity with the latest shape and cut of opera cloaks. “What is culture?” the author asks. In the government bulletins re garding corn, cotton, grain, or any one of the hundred products of the soil, the writers make a study of the life, habits, and needs of the plants in question; they point out the best way to provide for and satisfy these needs, the proper amount of moisture, the special plant food required; everything which the tiny growing plant must have to develope to perfection “root, stem, leaf and all.” If we give our “brag patch” the care am,! attention specified, we are rewarded by strong, healthy, viril, fruitful growths; we have “cultivat ed” it —given it culture. Is not “culture” then, the ac quiring of those things which will broaden our lives; quicken our sym pathies, widen our knowledge, strengthen our powers, beautify and en-noble our souls; develope our possibilities, just as the plant grows fine and strong in the right environ ment —in the sunlight and rain, the proper soil and air which to it is “culture”? And is not self culture the earn est striving for these things? THE COCHRAN JOURNAL, COCHRAN, GEORGIA. Don’t jail to come to our Closing Out Sale!
