It is a striking fact that men 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 m the men them
selves that makes this difference of attitude. Some men
are constitutionally obsessed with the feeling that this
1 old world is headed down hill to the bow-wows, and that
upon them has fallen the task of preventing the a most
inevitable catastrophe. There is another class that know
N this is a good place to live and with all their five senses
are feasting upon the good things and rejecting t la
which is bad. It is the former that herd m mobs and
head riots; it is the latter that are the balance wheel of
civilization, and prevent the machinery of organized
society from tearing itself to piecs. The former are the
! malcontents, the nomads, the iconoclasts and prof essional
agitators. The latter are the members of our churches,
I 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 m 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
I that gets most out of life for the individual and does most
V for the other members of society. The man who owns
a home or has the home-owning instinct is always a re
sponsible citizen and gets a satisfaction out of living un
known to the man who has no place that he can call his
veryown ^ 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 that
endure for a day-the other for a home, a place that is
1 his to have and to hold, a place upon which he can stamp
J his own individuality, a kingdom in which he is undis
5 puted monarch, a haven for his declining years, and a
t monument when lfe is done. Any man who really desires
to, can own a home. It may require saying and sacrifice
but everything worth while must be striven for. The fact
that every foot of ground, every board m the walls,
I every shingle upon the ropf represents a temporary
sacrifice and hard work, only adds to the enjoyment of
Ibis home. ... . . , , ,
Buy a home, work and pay for it, enter into a strata
of life you haven’t yet tapped and see hew quickly your
foolish'fears for the final finish of things will evaporate
and what a satisfaction ther is in being.
