Being liberated In the country
is quite different than it was in the
city, that’s all. When I was a swanky
suburban commuter, my biggest
physical challenges related to getting
my portfolio and books on and off
city trains. I never had to contend
with laying blocks and digging wells.
But back on the farm. I've discov-
ered that my razor-sharp intellect
can be easily outwitted by a cow. My
mortar doesn’t last, and my blocks
aren’t even, and I've had to admit,
for the sake of the farm, that men
are handy things to have around.
My feminist consciousness has
crumbled. Calving season took a lot
out of me. Everybody discovered
that this brave feminist was really a
chicken when I was supposed to

Mrs. Dorothy Daniels from •
the Stephenville office of the
Texas Department of Public
Welfare talked to all the eighth
grade orientation classes about
careers available with the
department. Mrs. Daniels told
them of the many jobs such as
child welfare workers, adult
welfare workers, food stamp
== workers, secretaries, budget
planners, truck drivers, and
others that presented more
choices of occupations than the
students realized.
For a social case worker,
Mrs. Daniels said one must now
have a bachelor’s degree, but
no requirement on a major field
is yet specified.
She recommended that the .
student place special emphasis
on math, English and Spanish
in high school. Mrs. Daniels
discussed her specific duties as
an adult social worker.
Some of the personal traits
- she emphasized were being
a self-starter, not requiring

Horses are just as quick to figure it
out. We bought them in January. His
was a short-coupled, sway-backed
little mare with a sweet face. I was
utterly scornful. “One does not
choose a ranch horse for its sweet
face," I chortled.
So I bought ajtall, lean gelding
with powerfully-muscled legs and a
Quarter horse daddy. I rode him
with one hand on the saddlehorn.
My husband chortled: “One does
not ride a ranch horse with a hand
on the horn.”
I refused to admit I couldn’t han-
dle that horse. I was born and raised
on a ranch, wasn’t I? I was a capable
and liberated woman, wasn’t I?
Well, by the time green grass came
up, his mare was looking better and
better to me. I finally agreed to a
switch of mounts, for the heck of it.
So we switched, and as every
country male is probably guessing,
my outrageous gelding got right the
moment my husband got on. -My
husband gloated and preened, at
home on that chauvinistic horse.
They seemed to understand each
other perfectly.
I could have sworn, but I didn’t. I
just climbed on the mare and went
off in the direction of his dust. I was
lost in chagrin.
So it took several minutes for me
to notice the soft, easy little lope that
this mare was giving me. No clinging
to the saddlehorn, no stiff-legged
panic. Just a nice, even, lady-like
stride. Lady-Hke!
It was a different woman who
came home that night after a hard
day in the saddle-a woman who
could walk and sit down without
wincing. It was a woman who had
learned to appreciate, once and for
all, the gentler aspects of feminity.
Didn’t the men like to run and
scratch gravel? Didn’t they love all
the reckless speed and scramble?
Well, then, let’s just leave them the
rough stuff.
My m.are minced prettily along on
the easiest trails, stepping daintily
aside whenever a cow split off. She
knew the big gelding would go thun-
dering by to head off the cow. I
knew it, too. And I liked her way a
lot better. -Norma Jane Skjold
