I've been thinking about that home business ever since my sensibilities were dragged--in a coupe--through that tenement-house street.

Of course, no child born and brought up in such a place as that could have any conception of home.

But that's because those poor people can't give character to their habitations.

They have to take what they can get.

But people like us--that is, of our means--do give character to the average flat.
