Excerpt from "The City". Smoke comes out from industrial chimney in factoriesnd causes air and water pollution. Houses in the city are congested, streets are narrow and children have no ground to play. Smoke can prove to be hazardous as it may lead to various diseases like Tuberculosis, Rickets and Typhoid. People run across the railway track before a train arrives with its engine emitting smoke. A man and a girl walk through narrow city streets with congested houses. After the day gets over workers return to their houses as their wives do household chores. A women pumps out water as another worker washes his dirty face and hands after a long days work. Smoke coming out from factories, houses and rail engines cause pollution and leads to environmental degradation.
