 It is a peculiar pleasure to many to know that they are really in New York and an integral part thereof. I believe many New Workers get a real thrill every time they see the white light sec tion of Broadway. They just naturally feel proud of 1t. Those who come here from elsewhere learn to have some thing of the same kind of feeling, and whether one Is in position to spend his time seeing New York, or whether he is confined to his desk the greater part of his waking life. he neverthe- less feels glad that his office Is located upon or within easy reach of Broadway.
 Some people have told me they love the peculiar. underground smell of the subway, love the throngs that fight for entrance into the subway trains and find real joy in being battered almost to pulp, for when they come out into the upper air once more they are able to smile and say.

UP AND DOWN BROADWAY--By Allen Griffin Johnson

TAY FEW YORK, April A-fSpeciaI) IN It is "old stuff to tell you that Bq1HFER| the war has resulted in the loss Ssss.sz9S or many jobs" in this city as
 well as elsewhere, but want to illustrate particular instance. A friend who has been at work upon the ''copy desk of certain New York afternoon paper met me on Broadway one evening this week and greeted me with one of the broe dest smiles had ever seen him wear.
 'Faller heir to a fortune?" I asked him.
 No" was the reply, "just lost my job.'
 It occurred to me that in some sections that was not considered as a cause for a sunny smile, so I asked wherefore the unusual jollity.
 Why l am glad because now I am going to see New Yorxl''
 See New York? Why. I thought you had been here about 15 years"
 ''Sc I have,' said the smiling one, but that is the trouble with all of us who live here and must work--we never see New York until we quit labor"
 He then told me of many similar cases that had come under his own observation Men who work go to and from their work. probably take in . few theatres, walk about in the section in which they live. but never really see New York be- cause they have not time. and are too weary when their daily duties are ended.
 This man had never seen the Metropoli- tan Museum of Art, nor the Museum of Natural History, enor Coney Island, Brighton Beach, etc. He had grown so familiar with the neighborhood around Herald square that he had almost come to think that all of New York life cen tered there. It is the case with many others. Yet they do realize, in a way, that New York as here for them to see whenever they are

 I'm sick of the worry and grind; The world seems intent upon blighting,
 It hasn't the time to be kind. And there's little to gain. So I'm longing in vain,
 For the days have left far behind I'd like to go back to the meadow,
 To roam OCT the hills that I knew When life held so little of shadow,
 And skies were so cloudless and blue; I'd like to go back Der the well beaten track
 To childhood again-wouldn't you? To feel in my heart the pure joy
 That only the morning can hold: To laugh once again like a boy,
 In ripples of silver and gold; To live, as of yore, On the sorrowless shore
 Of the fair little river of old I'm weary today of the battle
 The old, futile struggle of men; The din of the musketry rattle
 Is making me long for the Then To go back to the shore Of the Morning once more,
 And be just boy again.
