Will took a step forward, his big
hand raised, and though he still smiled
his face was evil. He spoke low and

If the New York Central railroad

cities and crossing the states, and
three enormous advantages are
gained at once. First, through traffic
is greatly facilitated in movement.
Second, existing towns are reclaimed
to live their local life in accordance
with their ancient plan of community
conference and dignity. Third, an ex-
panding population. pressed out from
the cities and made mobile by the
motor car, can move in and out daily

down the side roads to new commu-

the country. where there is room for
decent planning.
Owing to the present choked con-
dition of our highways, suburban liv-
ing is restricted almost everywhere
to half its potential range and half
its proper elbow room, while village
living has lost its character and
charm. The country is rapidly being
spoiled for tourists, and there is no
compensating gain in the flow of in
dustry or expansion of living range.
