Any one who has cherished some noble vision of a glorified humanity would be intensely interested to see Bournville, for part of Bellamy's "Looking Backward" is here realized.
Can you imagine yourself living four miles from a city the size of Pittsburg in a suburban town of about three thousand in- habitants, where there are no saloons and never can be any slums, noise, dirt, crowding, factory smells, bill boards, or streets torn up for gas-lighting, or sewers ? Wouldn't you like a chance to pl...ay golf, tennis, cricket, bowls, or hockey under ideal circumstances at a cost of a few cents a day? Wouldn't you be satisfied with the social life of a community that has splendid schools, churches, baths, gymnasium, meeting-house, and one tenth of its whole area given up to parks and playgrounds? Wouldn't you feel safer in a city where the national birth-rate has been doubled and the death-rate cut in two? And what would you say to a handsome brick house of seven rooms and a bath, with an eighth of an acre 132 GARDEN CITIES already planted with fruit trees, vines, and lawn, at a rental of twelve dollars and thirty cents a month?
