SEES GREATEST
OPPORTUNITY In CITY LIFE
By B. c. FORBES

Where can one get most out of life,
in the country or in the city! Is
job in the city or job in the country
to be preferred?
Whenever such a question arises,
the attractions and benefits of the
country are lauded.
What do you think?
Honesty is the best policy-I've
tried both ways" said an old man.
l have had experience, Is years of it,
of country life and still longer ex-
perience of city life. Having thus
tried both, I, for one, believe it is pos
siblc to get more out of life in the
city than in the country, that life in a
community is richer than life in
rural district. If that be heresy, make
the most of it."
Did you know that the notion that
children brought up in the country
and families living in the country are
more healthy than city folk has been
exploded?
Within recent years all authorita-
tive records prove that the people who
live in towns and cities are, as a
whole, healthier, soundcr, freer from
defects and disease than those who live
out in the open spaces. If / recall
rightly the draft statistics established
the fact that higher percentage of
city youths were found physically fit
than country youths. Since then it
has been proved that a larger percent
age of children horn in towns and

Poets and other theorists rave about
the idyllic life in the backwoods, but
is it not true today that life in
towns and cities really offers more
attractions. more opportunities. more
responsibilities, more important posi-.
tons? As the late J. p. Morgan once
remarked, "If you want to launch a
big ship, you must go where there is
plenty of water"
1t is time those of US who live in
cities and towns stopped plying our

ties for health for wealth and for
varied means of enjoying happiness
in cities than in rural sections.
