SWAYING TREE TOPS 



distance to see, nor light to renovate 

 our houses. Consequently we take a 

 car when we have five squares to go, 

 because our muscles are too weak to 

 walk we think. We cannot appre- 

 ciate space, and if we chanced upon a 

 place where houses were one hundred 

 feet apart, or should find a village 

 with the houses set in orchards, we 

 would immediately talk about be- 

 ing lonesome, and say the lack of con- 

 veniences was something " terrible." 

 So we frantically rush at the first 

 chance to pay twenty-five dollars per 

 month for six rooms and ten feet of 

 space. I am wondering how long we 

 shall so enjoy the "benefits" of 

 civilization. 



Come, let us go to the country 

 and stay!
