Five Towns On The B. & O.

BY day ... tireless smokestacks ... hungry smoky shanties hanging to the slopes
... crooning: We get by, that's all.
By night ... all lit up ... fire-gold bars, fire-gold flues ... and the shanties shaking
in clumsy shadows ... almost the hills shaking ... all crooning: By God, we're
going to find out or know why.
