Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rural Improvement: The Principles of Civic Art Applied to Rural Conditions, Including Village Improvement and the Betterment of the Open Country
The country needs to be improved. Some of us who live in the country and love it hate to admit this._ But the steady stream of young folks - and some older ones - mov ing toward the city shows that most people still find the city more attractive than the country. Look what has been done for the city! Fine schools, theaters, picture shows, playgrounds, parks, music, boulevards play, beauty and entertainment. The sim ple fact is that the country must do some thing to offset these attractions or the exodus of live young men and women will go on forever.
