Book Description

Excerpt from Mary Jane's City Home The train on which the Merrill family were traveling went dashing past factory after factory - past an occasional open space where they could see in the distance the blue gleam of Lake Michigan and past great wide stretches where tracks and more tracks on which freight cars and engines sped up and down showed them something of the whirling industry that has made South Chicago famous. No wonder it was a strange sight to the two girls - they had never before seen anything that made them even' guess the big business that they now saw spread out before them.
