duced TO leave their old life unless
there is present the community life
which. as a city dweller, they enjoy.
One of the results of the World
war was the exodus of men from the
soil to the city, and for the first time
in the history of our country the 1920
census revealed the fact that more
than half the total population was
resident in cities. Within the last
year or so, however, there has been
some indication of a "back to the

is 1908 million acres, Of which about
