hurxlay j THE REDMOND SPOKESM W PAGE TO'O A BEAUTIFUL HOME FOB THE ONLY GIRL -IT’S A DUTY When you own your own home you know you have a refuge at all times. You take a pride in beautifying YOUR dwelling. Your children in stinctively turn towards HOME against outside attractions. Your merchant looks on you with favor, because he knows that a HOME OWNER is permanent; that he will strive to keep his bills paid ami his credit good; that his example will induce others to do likewise, thereby insuring greater communal permanence and stability. Should reasons of business or health necessitate a change* of location, you have a bankable resource to secure needed funds, which rent receipts, no matter how numerous, can never afford. In your OWN HOME you can live as you want to live without interference from anyone, and without considering the whims of an owner who might have very different ideas from your own. You are your own master—you are free to do as you will—and this very independence of material conditions gives you an independence of thought that makes you a better father or mother, and a better citizen. Two hundred designs of Modern, Convenient, Moderate Priced BEAUTIFUL HOMES ready for your inspection, together with interesting information on HOME BUILDING. This means no obligation on your part. “See Anderson About it” TUM-A-LUM LUMBER COMPANY and as fast as it is eaten down a fresh fork full is put out.
