Excerpt from Co-Operation for All

What an abundance it is Here are fruits, ruddy or golden, all heaped together, and flowers so fragile and yet so brave with the beauty of their petals. Here, too, are wares far removed from raw material - slippers fit for Cinderella at the ball, cloths whose dyes are as soft as their wool, furs dark and warm and rich, finely embroidered cambrics, pure white laces, and many coloured silks. Here are toys beyond the dreams of half the nation's children, and dainty teacups perpetually inviting to the pleasantest hour of the day, and cut glass and shining silver, thick carpets, deep chairs, lounges, and woodwork, carved and polished. The annual fairs which surprised the expectations of our forefathers never yielded shows like these of the city shops which stand open every day.
