OF miles In the boroughs which are included In the

system permits the explorer who braves the perils
OF surface travel between Yonkers ard Flushing
to outstrp the Journeys Of Marco Polo at an outlay
/ OF few pennies. Why. then. should the intrepid
wayfarer pay g. for the privilege OF becoming
poorer IN racctrack betting-rng when he can get
much for his small silver in harmless recreation
and still keep his clothing free from the predatory
researches OF the polished cavaliers who are
