WHAT HOME is.

Home has a cool hand and soft
voice-and sympathy.
Home is where you can speak your
mind and critcise your employer.
Home is where you can pull of
your shoes and put on your slippers
Home has a quiet rest for the tired
head, and home is where YOU car
cry out your heartweariness.
Home is where you can shove the
days burdens into the hall closet and
hold yourself straight and free once
more.
A home is a responsibility. but moi
any more so now than in the time OF
our fathers. No man or woman
worthy of the name will shirk a re.
sponsiblity that means the welfare
of our country. 1t is that responsi.
hility that makes sturdy citizens and
selects great men to rule us.
Home is earth's Eden to those who
wish it to be so and will strive to
make it so. A little more thought.
fulness, little less selfshness; a lit.
tie of self-abnegation and good
deal of sentiment: much Of imagina.
tion and great lot of lovableness;
an ideal to grow to and enough prac.
ticability to keep things moving
smoothly; such constitute the haven
that most Of us look forward to and
that some of us reach.
