Home, home,
Sweet, sweet home;
There's no place like home,
There's no place like home.

It can be said with positiveness that John Howard
Payne who wrote the sweetest song ever sung the
song that will live forever. not reared in one Of
the match shaped affairs the artist presents here in
the panel.
Had he been he never would have written L.
There was a porch on Payne's home than
two windows in it, and vines and grass around it
There were surroundings that put the senti-
ment of his song in Paynes breast and it fingered
there for years before it found its way to paper and
music.
John Howard Paynes parents OWNED the house
they lived in, where he was born and around which
he played.
They didn't RENT 1T.
Before him, as he lived again the lines he was
mother in the doorway the little room in which he
was tucked into bed, to the paper the wall,
it, tint and the figure which permitted him to trace
the faces of men and women and to discover lions
and elephants the walls
He heard the patter of the rain upon the old tin
roof and heard the water dripping from the
and he remembered how comfortable it all seemed
then in MOTHERS home
John Howard Payne, as a matter Of fact did not
write Home, Sweet Home at all.
John Howard Paynes mother wrote it.
All the sweet sentiment in its words his mother
gave to that song; the picture it brings to US who
lived in houses our parents owned his mother drew
for him.
John Howard Payne's Home" was HIS MOTHERS
home
The home the artist has drawn for us here is one
the workingman we see coming home has saved for
and built
He quite sensibly reasoned some years ago that
the money he would have to pay for rent could as
well be applied on the purchase of home for him
self
It was very easy matter for him to make
rangement whereby he could build house and have
tho use of it while paying for it in instruments

Is
THEIRS
The day may not have gone well. II may have
been full of trouble or his work extra hard but far
down the street he begins to forget all about the
factory and how tired he is as he thinks of the
little group waiting for him at the front door and of
two or four little feet that will come tripping to
greet daddy
Isn't it too bad, inasmuch as they could just as
well not that babies cannot run to meet
their daddes and some daddies deny themselves the
pleasure of having baby to meet them.
In the panel is pictured the welcome home of the
fat dweller, the rent-payer.
Children whose daddies bring them up on seventh
floors do not run to meet them.
They do not know whether the footstep on the
stairs at the seventh fight is that of their daddy"
or the daddy" across the hall.
The children in the big picture will get all the
sentiment out of John Howard Payne's song and
they will be better citizens for it.
The word Home" Will mean HOME to them and
not several houses or fats.
They will remember the place where father
used to take of his boots mother used to like to
Sit the one room in which they played the room
in which they gathered later on to weep.
The man who lives IN the HISTORY aHalr IN the
panel may get the sentiment from Payne's song, for
HE may have been reared in home his parents
OWNED. but HIS CHILDREN NEVER WILL.
Living in different house for every year of his
or her age isn't going to leave much home sentiment
in the young young women who have spent
the most of their time adjusting themselves to new
territory and new surroundings and who frequently
have to consult the city directory TO find out where
they live.
The Payne song will not appeal to them very
strongly when they come to remember that home"
for them a moving van.
The Times wants Detroit to become city Of home
builders and home owners, of men and women who
can point to the roofs their heads and proudly
declare that every single in them is theirs
Such city will become city of contented citi-
Gems and this contentment will be reflected in the
tone of its moral health and in every end of its
government.
Get out of that stufy fat Mr. Rent-Payer.
Be your own landlord. Give your children the
advantage of HOME that will live and endure in
their memories when upon such endurance will rest
their own futures the future of the city the state
and the nation.
The man who owns his home views life and the
welfare of his city from an entirely different angle.
The interest Of city is HIS interest.
He becomes a factor in his city,s affairs.
BUILD NOW.
Own YOUR HONE in the finest city in the world.

Fish Story That Is Offered with
"Proof" of Veracity.

Few more remarkable experiences
have ever befallen a fisherman than
those of Nathan Rosenstein OF 81.
Paul, who last August wene fishing IN
beautiful Lake Bermidji. Bernstein
caught seven sunfsh and a perch ana
was about to give up and quit Whcn
an enormous pickerel made a furious
dash at his bait.
Rosenstein had just placed his pipe
between his teeth and was exploring
his trousers pockets for a match. me
suddenness of the strike" startled
him and he jerked his pole with his
free hand, while involuntarily tugglng
at the other to get it free from his
pocket. All would have gone well, but
for the pocket flap, which caught MS
hand and held it for a second.
Another vicious tug freed the FORK
manipulation, but as it came loose a
$40 gold piece shipped out OF the
pocket and rolled toward the gun
vale. Rosenstein dropped the pole
and grabbed for the coin, but it slid
overheard and with a dull "chug
slipped gently downward through the
clear water. Fascinated by the sight,
Rosenstein could but sit and watch.
Then a curious thing happened.
