Excerpt from Town Improvement: A Review of the Principles by Which Physical Improvement, in the Town or City May Be Accomplished With Observations as to the Effect of Such Improvement Ment Upon the Life of the CommunityIt is the aim of this volume to present to the citizen an outline of everyday methods, suggesting ways in which to set about working for the improvement of the community which each of us affectionately calls "the Home Town." The terms town and city are used interchangeably throughout these pages and therefore what is said applies to the large city as well as to the small town.The student of sociology, of civil government, and of business, may be inclined to believe that too much has been assumed in the title, since we deal almost entirely with the improvement of those physical elements of which the town is made up. In its broad sense town improvement implies improvement not only in visible and tangible things, but in other lines also. These several aspects are intimately related, however, improvement in one leading inevitably to improvement in the others, so that we may say that we can approach town improvement from any one of the sides mentioned.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
