A wall, for fresh air, went up
from the people of New York City
last week when the weather was
so oppressively hot. The crowd
ed condition of large cities is such
that fresh air, so essential to life
and comfort, is almost an unknown
commodity. Ifthose people could
once realize their condition and
come to understand how much I'M
occupied territory exists in this
broad land. they would flee from
the crowdedi cities, the incubatOrs
of disease and death, to the coun-
try where good water and fresh
are abundant.
