GIVE' HEED TO THIS MESSAGE! T IFE holds many fxittles for you,-tistrue, but none in which victory means more to you and1 yours than' that of OWNING YOUR OWN HOME! Oft, perhaps, have you dreamt of the day when that . would happen. And yet, dreams can not make it possible. The question is--What are you doing to attain it? Are you merely going to stand by and cherish the hope ot some day Owning Your Own Home or- ARE YOU GOING TO WORK HARD FOR IT? ; You owe to yourself and family to actually strive for it. Surely, you're 'anxious to see your children reared amidst well-loved and familiar, surroundings rather than having them sheltered by various roofs ' as you move from house to house. And to you yourself, there's no peace of mind which can com pare with the comfort you get out of knowing that you actually own the Tbof oveYyour head. The more home owners our community has, the better tor its progress and prosperity and all those who live in it. For, every man who owns his own home shows willingness to accept, responsibility and, doing so, becomes an active force in the development of a bigger and better community. And v he adds happiness to the world while enlarging himself. - :v So, men - - as we said before - - STKIVE 10 OWN YOUR OWN HOME! .
