HOME OWNERSHIP.
Benefits of Building aud Loan Associ-
ations in Aiding Persons Who are
DESTROYS Of Doing SO to Escape
From the Tenant Class into The
Category of Those Who Have Sub.
stantiaI Stake in the Community.

The advantages o: Building and
Loan Associations as IL means OF ac-
quiring a home and the resultant
benefits to the community in i.irh
they are established, have been re-
ferred to and emphasized SO repeat
edIy III these columns that nothing
else need be said. it would seem. And
Vet our efforts have not borne fruit.
But until our people move in the
matter and place Henderson in line
with other progressive towns of the
State we are not going to be salts
lied. We want to see this cOmmuni-
ty OF home owners and that means a
better citizenship.
Ill this connection we produce the
following from tie Brooklyn Citizen:
1t should be the ambition of every per
son to own Il home. As means to this
end the Building and Loan Association
IS the best and cheapest plan yet devised.
Given the desire to escape from the ten
ant class into the category OF those who
have Il substantial stake in the commu-
n'ty- there is no further difficulty but
that which cOnfronts whoever would
sacrifice little OF present pleasure to
future advantage. The average man
can. II he wishes, become a house owner,
and it may, therefore, be said that it is
entirely his own fault ii he goes through
lie without acquiring Il habtatiOn
which he can in the fullest sense call his
own. That this is practicable for nearly
every sober and Industrious wage Garner
and mechanic to accomplish by the CO.
operative plan has been so unmistaka-
bly, demonstrated that there is no fur
ther room for controversy.
1t cannot be necessary to make any
long argument to convince intelligent
people, interested in the well being of
society. how important associations are
that aim at the accomplishment of these
results. They go to the root of our So
called social problem. They mean a bet
ter n oral life in our cities, better govern
ment. inasmuch as they tend to produce
I; more responsible citizenship. and a safe
solution Of the difficulties which are raised
by Socialism. on the one hand. and the
growth OF vast wealth on the other. 1t
is gratifying to learn that this co-opera-
tive movement is extending all over the
country. Having its basis in thrift and
Il deep sense OF family responsibility, the
building and Loan Association cannot
fail anywhere to bring great advantages
to the community in which it finds favor.
