It will increasingly relate its work to the needs of the community and to the demands of the home and will add to its socializing function by assuming new lines of service. Large as is its present contribution, in the near future it will be much greater.

That in thus surrendering the properties for which they were largely responsible they hoped at the conclusion of peace to see restored the 'status quo ante' should not be held against them. Some are now beginning to surmise that a complete restoration is impossible; and as a result of their socializing experience, are even wondering whether it is desirable.

The chief agencies that socialize rural thinking are the church, the school, the press, secret societies and clubs, and the industry of farming itself. The effective rural church as a socializing agency has a commanding position. Even the inefficient church has more social influence than appears on the surface.
