It is a striking fact that xnett in the same conditions
and environments enthusiastically take, wholly different
attitudes on the same subject. Among a number of men
working under the same conditions for the same pay on
the same job you will find some perfectly satisfied and
some wholly dissatisfied. As the outward conditions are
the same to all, there must be something in the men them
selves that makes this difference of attitude. Some men
are constitutionally obsessed Avitli the feeling that this
old Avorld is headed down hill to the bow-avows, and that
upon them has fallen the task of preventing the almost
inevitable catastrophe. There is another class that knoAv
this is a good place to live and with all their five senses
are feasting upon the good things and rejecting that
which is bad. It is the former that herd in mobs and
head riots; it is the latter that are the balance Avheel of
civilization, and prevent the machinery of organized
society from tearing itself to piecs. The former "are the >
malcontents, the nomads, the iconoclasts and professional |
agitators. The latter are the members of our churches, :
the supporters of our schools, the patrons of our arts and
the owners of homes. The distinguishing difference be
tween these two classes of men is in their ability to select
and appreciate the things that are really worth while
in life. No one ever saw home owners herding in mobs |
or heading riots. The man who owns his home enjoys
the ordered scheme of life. He instinctively knows it is
the only scheme that will protect his family and foster
that family influence that produces the type of character
that gets most out of lifedor the individual and does most
for the other members of society. The man who oavqs 1
a home-or has the home-owning instinct is always a re
sponsible citizen and gets a satisfaction out of living un
knoAvn to the man who has no place that he can call his i
very OAvn.
Among men with the same advantages in life with
the same earning capacity and with the same earnings
you will find home owners and men whose names never
appear upon a registry of deeds. Each has spent his
earnings in his own way—the one for the things thdt
endure for a day—the other for a home, a place that is
his to have and to hold, a place upon whioh he can stamp
his own individuality, a kingdom in whioh he is undis
puted monarch, a haven for his declining-years, and a
monument when lfe is done. Any man who really desires
to, can own a home. It may require saving and sacrifice,
but everything worth while must he striven for. The fact
that every foot of ground, every board in the walls,
every shingle upon the roof represents a temporary
sacrifice and hard work, only adds to tire enjoyment of
his home.
Buy a home, work and pay for it, enter into a strata
of life you haven't yet tapped and see how quickly your,
foolish fears for the final finish of things will evaporate
and what a satisfaction ther is in -being.
