the person who looks deeper the heart of the city is emphasied pecently ruling a street car through a down town section at the busy noon hour we ghmp ted what might be termed one of the mile things that give a city its heart people were jostling pushing crowding through the doors of the street car and the op eralor continued good naturedly tailing out the street names in the middle of the block

number of people find their dest ination but many of the speeding throng would never notice or care for they were looking only for the surface of the city extend your outlook from lhai of city to thai

there are len and pay for their education my oldest son had reached the age of eighteen years and did not complete the third grade each of the next four children of school age are similarly behind because of their lack of clothing and not being able to attend school the father had kept a very close check on the purchases made with the family allowance and there followed an itcmied list totalling 671 23 boots and shoes pants windbreakers blankets and other clothes were on the list and al the end was an item of 12 75 for a cart for one of ihe children who is an invalid the effect of
