a deep regret for not speaking, or at least giving them a smile, an acknowledgment of my appreciation of what they are doing for us all.

This apparent indifference is one reason why a great city like New York, Chicago, or San Francisco, to a stranger, especially one from a foreign country, is about the lonesomest place a human being could be in. To pass thousands of faces day after day, without a friendly look from anyone, without a word of greeting, without even a smile or a glance of recognition, is most disheartening. It seems cruel, brutal, uncivilized, yet it does not proceed from unkindness, or because people don't want to be friendly—it is just the custom.

But why should we. of the twentieth century perpetuate such a custom? Why should strangers stare so coldly at one another when a simple smile and pleasant recognition would be so pleasant? These people we call strangers are really our brothers and sisters, for the human family are all children of one Father. We have not had an opportunity to know the so-called strangers simply because our family is so vast.
