IT" .lunik 'HHIIIIk j jr Comfort Going Home I "mm there's no place like home." And that's truth. A man's home ' is his castle. What a feeling of security and protection the ownership of his home gives a man! He becomes a citizen in the truest sense of the word, because he becomes vitally interested in the welfare of the community. The man who owns his own home has a standing in the community that he can secure in no other way. He has the respect of other men the -confidence of the banks and business houses, the actual RIGHT, vested in . ownership of property, to take his plabe in the business, political and social life of his city, and the knowledge that, come what may, he has his. home to fall back on.. ,-' ..- , is wife appreciates having her own home even more than the man himself. SHE knows what it means to move about from pillar to post at; the whim of the Landlord, to fight for new wall paper and paint, repairs to plumbing and leaky roofs. He spends his days out in the world of business and work. SHE stays at home and keeps the house, and her home is her wprld. She values the little things that are hers about the home the flowers she plants, the small . conveniences she arranges, the pleasant neighbors and the associations she forms and she hates to leave them- And what about the children? Don't you think they take a pride in the fact that their Father owns his own home? If you don't just ask the firs, children you meet who are old enough to understand especially the girls. The pride of ownership transmits itself to every member of the family. Their home is THEIRS to have and to hold. Do YOU own YOUR home? if you don't we want to see you, for we can show you how to own a home in beautiful Connor dale on easy terms, with perfect freedom, and with satisfaction all around; Don't delay too long over your decision to call us up DO IT NOW.
