New York, but of the world. 1t is almost
that tC day.
And all around 1t within a radius OF 100
miles will be the homes Of men and women
who will consider themselves for all prac-
teal purposes New Workers.. That will be
when the railroads and the automobile

circle within striking distance OF the site

the inverted pyramid the growth from the

And all Of Long Island to Islip on the

for trade and We will have another city
within the city at South Brooklyn.
But the why and the wherefore Of this
growth aremore interesting than the physical
details. 1t Is as important to know what
has made New York city great as II Is to
know about the mere laying Of tracks and
the location Of terminals.
THE whole world Ia contributing TO this
city. These skyscrapers don't mean merely
that New York is growing as a municipality.
They mean that most great enterprises In
the world have New York Office.
Every railroad. every mining concern.
every important banking house must have
its Office in New York. no matter In what
State or country the home Office may be
located.
THE man who looks upon the city's
tremendous development Of the last Ave
or ten years as something which Is only
local ignores the true significance Of 1t
altogether. The prosperity Of New York
shows the prosperity of the country. 1t
means that the West has got beyond the
frontier stage OF its development and that
the whole country from the Atlantic to the
Pacific is living on fat.
In the beginning, the development
Of the West was rough-and-tumble fight

That fight has been won. and the fruits of
the victory are a surplus and great business

TO provide a centre for evangelistic activity

To secure the realization OF these designs
a system Of general housekeeping was In
stituted. and while all retained their private
property no one carried on business purely
FOR his own profit. All worked for the
church and In return received from II the
necessaries OF life.
