Mitchell--a perpetual reminder of one of the rfiost heroic types of motherhocgd the world has ever known. Perhaps, as visitors gaze upon Dunn's painting, they will recall this tribute paid to just such a woman af. is depicted there: ^ THE PRAIRIE MOtHER She came to rock the cradle of a new empire. Adventure calls to men. but duty summons women. And so, when the time was ripe to breed new stars lor the flag, she set forth from Maine and Ohio and Killamey's loveliness and her Swedish village and her fjord home to mother the wilderness.' Only God and she knows the fullness of her giving to the young Northwest. She lived in sod houses and hay-roofed huts, with the newest neighbor often • day's trudge away. , ~ She had no decencies. She did not even know the luxury of floor or fireplace. Her meal was ground in a hand mill and her baking range was a, make-shift oven In ^ the yard. She helped in the fields--at the plowing and the sowing, and she helped to scythe^ the crop and bind the sheaves. She watered stock and spun and knitted and tailored. She made * garden and preserved the winter food, milked her cows and nursed her children. The sleepy-eyed sun found her already at her tasks, and the midmoon heard her croon the baby to re^t. Her "beauty sleep" began at ten and • ended at four. Year in. and year out she never had an orange, a box of sweets or a gift of remembrance. She fought drouth antt'dearth and sav- ' ages and savage loneliness, her "Sunday bests" were calico and linsey woolsey. She grew old at the rate of twenty-four months a year at the grubbing hoe /STfQ " tKlf washtub' and the churn. ' She bore her bairns alone §nd buried them on the .frozen prairies. •; But she asked no pity for her broken arches, her aching back, her poor, gnarled hands. Or for the wistful memories of a fairer youth in sweeter lands. 'She gave America the great Northwest,, and was too proud to quibble at the cost of the Ktalwart sons to whom she willed it. She mothered MEN!--Herbert Kaufman in the Minneapolis (Minn.) Tribune. < Or they m£iy recall thia poetic tribute: ' A WOMAN HOMESTEADEtt ! I walked with quick steps up the coulee ' " * - trail; / " ^ I had to hurry lest the creeping dark Would catch me and.my nervous hand* would fail To find the wire gate that closed the ^ park Against stray cattle. Here my cabin stood. In a small wilderness of quaking asp; Here I "homesteaded." No one thought I could Two years fcgo. but now I calntjy pass A bristling porcupine, a rattlesnake. The watching eyes of some wild, hidden thing-- ' coyote sneaking near the drled-up lake. A. row of stunted pines where finches sing. Tbe mule-eared deer that often come to sup. "And nuzzle one another at my Spring (Which, after cleaning, is but Just a cup). ' And yet. tonight, how glad I was to • bring My hands in contact with the wire bight " That held my gate. I thought. "Real " " homesteading!- ' I hate the dark; 1 only love the light!" Quickly I shut the' door and slid the - ; draw Across the iron latch, and dropped the clamp. rirmly in place, but not before I saw Near Tiger Butte the glimmer of a lamp. I stood a moment puzzled by the light- Startled. perhaps, and curious as a deer That lifts its head to catch the rushing flight Of a young grouse. And then my silly fear Vanished like mountain mist. My lanip! A match! To Cheer that other soul I knew had come To plough and fence; to have a garden patch; - JCo live with God as I and build a home. --^Ulian Leonard in Scribner s Magazine. Besides such tributes' as these, the memory of the pioneer mother is perpetuated in various parts of the country in bronze and stone. Several yeairs ago the Daughters of the American Revolution marked the National Old Trails route from the Atlantic to th6 Pacific with heroic statues of the women who followed ^that trail across the country.
