COUNTRY VS.. CITY.

Some one has well said that profits
made in the city mean losses TO others
while in the country the man who
makes two blades Of grass grow where
only one grew before contributes to the
general wealth Of the country. II IS
inexplicable that the general govern
ment doesn't recognize the country as
it does the city. Public buildings pa
latial and plentiful but public high
ways absolutely neglected. Cities
might have the grass To grow on their
every street and the nation would sur
vive, but let the grass cease TO grow
in the country places and the nation
would perish from the earth. Give
the country good roads and good laws
and il asks for 10 other favOrs. No
matter how hard pressed for money it
will never do as Wall Street does and
cry to the nations treasury for relief.
All the rural worIties ask is TO "toie
fair. ~

Had to walk mile or so
To reach the public hall

Lay in wait along the street:
Carried each a shingle
And wore a winding sheet
Stepping from the darkness.

Found the ghosts as embed
