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.
