He would weep for the crowding and the dark rooms which lower human vitality. He would weep for New York's dtvorees, caused not #0 much by incompatibility | as by crowded and unhealthy conditions of life. Most of all, he would weep for the cooking in these unhappy homes, for the fact that young women tend go regard their husbands as meal tickets, and even then won't provide the meal ticket with proper meal: E.
