house is home
Occasionally we should re-doflne
things for ourselves like this.
Very often houses run people in
stead Of people running houses Then
houses are houses Home is not a
matter OF size or servants. Home is
possible in a piano box. Home is an
atmosphere.
No woman should let hardwood
floors ruin her life. The minute they
start. she should burn down her big.
slick, polished, fancy home and move
into piano box.
When the machinery OF anything
gets bigger than the thing-some-
thing IL wrong.
a house is merely the machinery OF
home happiness
II your automobile keeps you from
seeing the country and makes you
fret enough poison into your system
To offset the good effects of the fresh
air with which an automobile IL sup
posed TO FIJI you--run your automo-
bile into a ditch and walk.
Let Ms remind ourselves now and
then WHY we are doing this and
that, ana WHY we have this and
that Let us continually re-define
our wives. our husbands, our bosses,
our ambitions. etc.
And, whenever. on mature thought
we think ii necessary. let us burn
down our cmttcred mansions and
move into a piano BOX

The story OF some German su'

them. There are authentic instance
OF SEQ men surrendering to fifty, or
or one man bringing In dozen prs

The Germans have lost hope since
they have found out how fatally thel
