* i: * * 'k '1: DREAMING Fannie R, Buchanan My home must have a high tree Above its open gate. My home must have a garden Where little dreamings_ wait. My home must have a Wide view Of field and meadow fair, Of distant hill, of open sky, \X/ith sunlight everywhere. My home must have a friendship With every happy thing, My home must offer comfort For any sormwing. And every heart that enters Shall hear its music there, And find some simple beauty That every life may share. My home must have its mother, May I grow sweet and wise. My home must have its father \Vith honor in his eyes. My home must have its children. God grant the parents grace Tn keep our home through all the years A kindly happy place. â€"In “The Spirit and Philosophy of Extension Work, 1' i i: ir * t i 'k Board to have the time table published in the local paper.

The fair exhibits and parade floats, like the skits and variety shows that Institute women plan for themselves, show a lot of originality.
