 per. Our complete banking facili-

"All this individual enrichment, in- 

 tangible and hard to define, is, to me, a 

 very real result of adult education and 

 every phase of it is reflected in the home 

 circle. A renovated living room with 

 colors harmonizing will happily affect the 

 family, but not so greatly as the eager- 

 ness and pleasure of the mother in over- 

 coming the obstacles, often almost in- 

 surmountable, to accomplish this. And 

 .so on in every part of the homemaking 

 work, the benefit achieved by the mother 

 is carried over to the entire family. 

 Perhaps, too, the other members of the 

 family find a new pride in the mother 

 who has acted as a leader and so have an 

 added respect for her opinions. From 

 the conditions of her life, the rural 

 woman to see her value as a citizen. She 

 has not so much refused to accept the 

 idea of the community as a larger home 

 and therefore needing her participation, 

 as she has been prevented by the condi- 

 tions of home and travel from acting on 

 this idea. But, as time goes on and the 

 patience of the instructors holds together 

 under the .strain, we see communities 

 benefiting more and more from the in- 

 terest and help of the homemakers.
