LIKED THE CITY OF CHURCHES.
Brooklyn Man Who Had Only One
Cloud In all His Sunshine.
"Why do like Brooklyn better than
New York? I'll tell you," said a former
iweller on Manhattan Island, who is
low living in the City of Churches, to a
'eporter. II moved over here in the
irst place because rents were lower. It
vas not more than week after we were
ettled when we received pleasant call
rom people living in our block, and an
invitation to make our church home in
om1non with them in the Trinity Pres I
'yterian church, at Marcy and jefferson {
venues, Inside of month we had an |
greeable circle of acquaintance, and {
we're ourselves ready to extend well a
ome to newcomers. |
"Show me a neighborhood in New i
'ork where family moving in is treat :
in that way, unless it be near mis- c
ion church. In New York the churches s
ire missionary who makes busi- '
ess of visiting, and whose visits are
urely business calls. In Brooklyn the a
eople do the visiting in person, and do 8
in friendly way. In New York every a
ody is too busy and too conservative to
link of his neighbor, unless it be to D
ossip about him, but in Brooklyn the Il
eople take time to make themselves h
sreeable to their neighbors. {
"Another thing that is little in itself, f,
ut counts for good deal in the long p
IN, is the attention one receives on the t,
evated trains. The guards are more g,
,commodating and seem to know more h
Brooklyn. 1t puts me in better b
amor all day when, in the morning, as s;
go to my business, l see an intelligent
lard on the train who is gentleman
acts as well as looks. 1 don't intend
be unreasonable, but can't see why v
guard in New York cannot be ac- u
tainted with distances and localities as u
ell as Brooklyn guard ol
"One thing has bothered me- however, Il
er since came here, and that is, why tt
e conductors on the surface cars are re
'liged to ring up the fares when pas M
niger gets on the car. Ihave seen many al
who rang up fares, and had tn
e passenger discover that he was on pl
e wrong car and jump off before the h'
re was collected. But that is tho only "
ing that has troubled me since have tn
en- living here. New York Tribune. W
