The article focuses on Southern regeneration. Situated on the extreme western border of Missouri, Kansas City is built upon a high bluff, scarred and seamed with deep ravines which seem designed to make civilized streets impossible. Kansas City is a species of meeting-point at which the active, commercial enterprise of the North has come in contact with and is struggling for ascendancy over the traditional Southern element. The article also focuses on South-German village life. Among the new railway lines opened this year in Germany is from Stuttgart to Freudenstadt and which when completed, will form the most direct line to Switzerland and the shortest route to Strassburg and the west.
