N DAYS of old, women tilled the
fields and kept the home fires
burning while the warriors on the
battlefield tried unsuccessfully to set-
tle their misunderstanding by hu-
man slaughter. But all this was
change the week of June 1 to 6, when
over 7,000 country women from 20
countries met in Washington, D. C.,
to attend the third triennial confer-
ence of the Associated
en of the World. Peace throughout
the world was the keynote of the con-
ference but resolutions on peace were
conspicuous by their absence. Why?
Women feel that peace can be se-
cured only by a feeling for peace in
the heart and this will result more
quickly from a mutual understanding
of home life and conditions between
peoples of various countries.
ry Wom-
Women May Have Answer
Perhaps the women of the world,
working together will solve the Gar-
gantuan question of securing peace.
The program throughout the week
was brilliantly planned with this
thought in mind. Delegates from
each country represented gave short
reports of their outstanding work

AMBITIOUS equestrians and equestriennes forget radio for a time to take a moon-
light ride at Stanton's farm, Glen Ellyn, Ill. How many of your friends do you suppose
took their meals off the mantel next day? Well, plenty of 'em.

Jack hard at work.
Hurt was born and Jack and Chick
practically grew up together. They
are still almost inseparable. If you
see Jack, Chick is likely to be some-
where nearby.
When Jack was a youngster, he
learned the old home folks songs and
hill billy tunes instead of nursery
rhymes and he was playing a guitar
as soon as he could hold one. He and
Chick were always invited to all the
"socials" down home because with
their songs and "cuttin'-up," they
were the life of any party and made
it a success.

"Big Jack"
ACK Taylor always has a smile
and a friendly greeting for every-
one, which makes him a mighty
popular person whether he's in
the radio studios or out with a road
show making friends. You just can't
help liking Big Jack.
Most of his spare time is spent
visiting with friends and relatives, al-
though he likes to play golf, hunt and
ride horseback. Jack never seems to
have any troubles or worries but he's
a serious sort of fellow about his
work. When he slaps the strings on
the bass fiddle, he really makes music
and he's usually waving "howdy" to
some folks in the Little Theatre or in
the control room in between chords.
Grew Up with Chick
Like the other Prairie Ramblers,
Jack was born in Kentucky. Summer
Shade is his home town. That's not
so far from Willowshade where Chick
