vigorous by country immigrants, 155,
156. The old cities were open to
country influences, and with a manage-
able society, 156-158. The tendency
is for the individual to dwindle in
town-life, 158-160. Family feeling
withers up in town, 160-162; nor can
improved conditions of policy alto-
gether remedy this, 162, 163. On

are not the highest, 164-166; as the
