Nothing glvea a keener aeet to thrift
than eavlng to own n home. Our

commendable. A city of home ownere
to a etable city. A city of rentora la
apt to be ahlftlng and trnnalent.
If you loee money In owning e home
It la ueually attributable to one of the
following cauaea:
"Tou inveet In a home too expenalve
for yonr Income.
"Tou pay more for It than Ito loca-
tion and coat of conatroctton Justify,
letting the other fellow gobble the
pfoflte while you accept the loaa.
"Ton are a poor Judge of location
veluee and get Into a location where
there la little or no demand for prop-
erty or where values are decreaalng.
Tou conatruct a home devoid of
convenlencea, grotesque la appearance,
or out of the ordinary and of a type
that few people would desire.
"Tou neglect little esaentlale, auch
aa closet room, sunlight, location of
stairways and other things. While
you may tblnk it matters little, nine
other persons out of ten will object
to them. Think ,of building a home In
city where .kunshlne Is pleasant
eleven months of the year and then of
placing the stairway to the south,
cutting out all the sunshine, while the
windows are placed at the north. Such
Is sometimes done. The owner then
will wonder why so few desire to buy
rent It. The reaaon should be

Slums are not the product of a city's
Inevitability. They are the product of
Ita stupidity, of Its Indifference, lack of
perception and thought. A groat mass
of people cannot live together as four
families might live at a country croas-
roads. Their Interdependence de-
manda an aasumptlon of responsibility
by the people who can do things for
the people who cannot.

Roatfa and Trees.
The American Foreetry association

cauaea of roads and foreetatlon. It

Something more Is Involred than a

Katraica of temperature, such as come
on a biasing summer day with a down-

the unabaded roadbed, opening It to

The atoded road lasts longer and

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMIES.
Making the dollar do the work of
two haa been a woman's problem for
years; but now with
dollar stretched to the
breaking point to meet
the demands laid upon It
la certainly the work of
the whole family. Even
In homes where there haa
alwaya been a good In-
come, women who are
pood managers delight in
using absolutely everything edible and
wearable. There la great satisfaction
In making something worth while from
food or clothing. There are many
ways that a dollar thus saved may be
tilted toward added comfort, or extra
hospitality, or for some special treat
which the household can all enjoy, for
"a dollar aaved ia a dollar earned."
There are few housekeepers who need
to he told bow to save In large things
(those that do, won't read this any-
way). but It Is In the little leaks and
