"In conclusion, my dear Fern! I must tell you something about 'The club
babies,' as they are proudly designated by the members. They are very
bright and beautiful! In fact, they seem born with a consciousness, that
it is their peculiar privilege, to commence the study of life as a fine
art, at its very threshold. They are the zealously guarded treasures of
the club, and the pride of the farm! They give a glorious promise, that
they will prove worthy leaders, of a coming host of dominant thinkers,
which are to be given to the world, by the mothers' clubs of the next
quarter of a century.
"As champions and exponents of the true object and purpose of human
life, these thinkers will be armed with a wonderful potency, with which
to overcome and conquer, the selfish reign of the competitive system. A
cruel system, which has proved the very incarnation, of 'Man's
inhumanity to man,' causing countless millions to mourn! In this great
work, they will be inspired, by the high purpose of replacing its evil,
poverty-breeding dominancy, by an unselfish, co-operative system, a
union of spiritualizing, educative, stirpiculture and agriculture, which
shall insure a higher civilization, and the perpetual reign of peace and
plenty for all mankind."
"What you have told to me so charmingly, Fillmore, is almost too good to
be true! How eloquently, and how interestingly, you have described, the
scope and work of this wonderful club, with its gifted leader! I hail
the advent of this club, as one of the most important results, achieved
by the Solaris Farm Company! I am delighted, with its thorough
organization, broad plans, high aims, earnest work, and the remarkable
enthusiasm, of its members! They represent a cause, which is dear to my
heart!
"The question, of how to be well born, is to my mind, the foremost
question of the day! A question, which demands universal consideration!
This twentieth century union, of agriculture and stirpiculture, this
scientific, systematic, generation of the race as a fine art; which has
been so well demonstrated, by the surprising work of these enthusiastic
young mothers, is something to be proud of! The good, which must follow
the work of this club, cannot now be estimated. The one hope, for the
regeneration and final salvation of society, is centered in the mothers
of the Republic! Nothing, is so well calculated to impress the
importance of this grand truth, on the minds of the people, as the
practical work of an ever increasing host of mothers' clubs.
