PLAN FOR CITY. FINE THING, SAYS DAVIS
' Towns are just like Topsy, they "just grow" any way they happen to and after awhile, when they are quite big, people living in them realize that they could have grown to be much more attractive than they are. When people leara this,
they wish to begin right away and do all they can tjo make their city
or town more beautiful. This is being thought of now in many cities in the United States. "Children are interested and want to know about our plans to make Richmond more attractive, as well as older people," said Mr. Dell Davis, civil engineer of liiehmbnd, who is very much interested in the planning of cities. The plan, is to have a group or a commission of men, in Richmond
who will be especially interested in watching how -the city grows. They can see from the map In Mr. Davis' office, the different parts of the . city, some for homes, some for factories and some for stores and for offices. If some one puts a large store or a garage, or perhaps, a
