NEW YORK-Iwonder sometimes
how much richness and beauty this
metropolis steals from the midlands,
by Turing it's talented soma and
daughters here with it's rewards for
achievement :. Would their talents
have bloomed as well In the soil of
home?
But it often turns out that home
is better viewed and appreciated by
this distance from it-and that an
guished longing for it, fancied or
real, is to enrich our whole America.
Thus it was here, in the stretch
between Broadway and the Bowery,
that Stephen Foster (from small
town Pennsylvania, wrote his i'm
mortal songs Of home far away; that
Paul Dresser sang remembering1y
of the Banks of the Wabash; that
Home on the Range" and dozens of
other songs welled up in nostalgia
hearts and were put on paper, for
all our people to sing.
Would these songs have been born
had not New York called their Gre
ators from the native Soil-here to
long for it in homesiek alone-ness?
Perhaps the home-lands are e
paid for their loss, eventually, and
we all are thereby enriched.
