Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines Springfield, Illinois, in the early 20th century. The author notes that the city is home to numerous factories, mines, and a large female workforce, which together create an environment where passive amusements are valued to offset the physical and mental exhaustion of the day. The author expresses concern that this leads to vices such as excessive drinking and sexual promiscuity, which in turn lead to domestic violence, neglect, and crime. The author believes the city should offer wholesome municipal alternatives to these passive amusements, which would foster positive habits, improve the city's overall morality, and give its beleaguered citizens opportunities to develop their talents and interests. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
