Most persons believe that cities are
nests 81 vice and crime, and we hear a
good deal of the wholesome moral and
physical influence of rural life. This
also is q mere notion. There is no more
prof ic nest Of crime than small com.
munity like that which the Jukes lin.
Guiding members of forty families, it
should be remembered seemed to have
formed a part. There are many such
nests scattered over the country Peo-
pie of vicious and criminal propensities
come from the rural districts to cities
because in them they find wider aud
more profitable field for their exertions
than they could find at home. A very
considerable part, if not the majority of
the active and habitual criminals in
cities, are of rural or at least of provin
cia birth and breeding. The notion of
superior rustic virtue is mere notion.
