Guddings of Columbia university. r "The twelfth census shows a succession succes-sion of large cities," he declares, "each .with an elaborate system of suburban villages or offshoots, stretching along the belt I have indicated. ; "The distances between these cities are so small that practically all the villages vil-lages that lie between them are suburban subur-ban points of one city or the other, and now the trolley companies are connecting connect-ing these points in such a fashion that we shall soon be able to ride by trolley from Lynn to Washington and Mount Vernon." . |
