Around it circle most of those things we like to remember. None but the very few expatriates view life abroad without wistfully casting back in their mind to the virtues and superiorities of the American home. . The cardinal element of the American home is its self sufficiency. There is' substantial reason for that. When - this wonderful land was colonized it had to become either the prey of adventurers or the resource of constructive 'workers. Only by courageous effort, by a supreme de votion to the means of livelihood was the family established as the ancestor of this teeming people of great riches and superb achievement. The foundation is in. those homes, and ever muni be; that in why the tradition of the American home is such nn integral part of American life, as individual as any na tional characteristic can be, and as wholesome and pernm nent as anything man has created.;, ...

( I The great upgrowth of big cities has indeed diminished 1 he typical American home, the single residence, and to tho extent that we have become a race of flat-dwellers, home-making has lost some of its sweetness.
