S. p. Bostwiclt of Payne, Bostwick s.
Slater, said;
your Home Day proposition Is certainly
a step in the right direction. The time is
ripe for the people Of Omaha TO be edu-
Gated along these lines. Never before in
the history of Omaha has there been so
strong a demand for moderate priced homes
ranging from S2,OOO to $4,000, to be purchased
on the easy term plan, as there is today.
A very large percentage of the population
Of a city like this live in houses not their
own and in these prosperous times people
are beginning TO realize that it is time
for them to make a start and get a home
which they can call their own.
Many opportunities are open for those
Of moderate means to buy a home and
pay for It practically the same as rent.
No one can realize how much different
one feels living In a coy cottage home
which they are paying for by the month,
than they do living In a house that they
are simply holding rent receipts to show
what they have paid on the property. 1t
is also true the larger percentage OF home
owners, the more beautiful will be our
city; hence, 1t ls well TO encourage in
every way possible The matter OF home
buying. After one secures n homo, even on
the easy payment plan. he Immediately
takes on new aspirations and interest in
everything about him
Easy Enough to Buy.
The O'Keefe Real Estate company says:
ITO buy q home Is as easy as to save
money with the hope of buying later.
Plenty OF residence lots can be bought on
payments of only 10 per cent of ones earn
ings. In less than two years at the most
the lot is paid for, and the home occupied.
1t is better to pay 6 per cent interest than
TO pay 100 per cent of your money to the
landlord. The hons owner Is a better man
to himself ana his city. TIL substantial
element of Omaha Is found not in roomlng
houses, hotels and flats, but in the homes
paid for by sacrifice Of pleasures in
younger days and enjoyed by families with
contentment of present and security for
future,
The J.. W. Rasp company says: Omaha
real estate is as good as money in the
bank. and every loyal citizen of Omaha
should nave the ambition of owning a
home of his own. But 1t is very hard for
the average wage Garner to pay cash for
his ideal home. But with the monthly pay
ment plan you can buy your home with
only a few hundred dollars as first pay
ment and the balance about the same as
you nave always paid rent, and you will
be surprised how soon your home will be
paid for instead Of accumulating a bunch
of rent receipts, which never buys any
thing. If 1t Is a paying investment for the
landlord to own and rent houses 1t is surely
a paying Investment for you to own your
own home, Now is a good time to buy,
before the spring rush"
Rent Payer VS.. Home Owner.
There is all the difference in the world
between the man who is paying rent and
his neighbor who is paying for his home
in monthly i~nstallments," said Byron II.

There is a look in the eye of the rent dwell
Ter that is not pleasant. He knows the
money must be paid and he pays 1t simply
from that standpoint. on the other hand.

his home greets you with a smile and

You see his case is so different. Every
time he makes a monthly payment he is
that much nearer complete ownership, and
he is eager to make that payment and pre-

1. p. Campbell, salesman for the Byron
Reed company. says: Buying a home on
the monthly payment plan has a number
OF advantages over depositing In a savings
bank. The home owner must pay in a
stated sum on the properly each month,
and to this is added the incentive to make
larger payments in order to reduce the
monthly interest. The savings bank de-
posltor will deposit only that which he
saves without effort"
