The need for homes and the desire Of
the government to promote building to
keep the commercial and industrial
life of the country prosperous has
caused many, who have not heretofore
considered it, to build their homes this
year. The homes that will be built
will be of many types of architecture.
Some want and require large houses !;
others will build small houses.
The exterior view shows what a fine
little home can be built from this de-
sign. The novel roof and porch treat

eye and one that will give the owner

From this brief description and from
the exterior view and the floor plan. 1t
may be seen that this is an exceptional
bungalow design. However, it always
is well to consult an architect before
building. In comparison to the advice
he can give the prospective builder,
his fee is small. 1t is easy to make
costly mistakes in building, and with
a reputable architect these will be
avoided. The cost of this bungalow
can be ascertained from him, or the
local contractor or material dealer,
there being no fixed price on labor and
materials that will apply to all parts
of the country.
Buying a home is not a hard mat
ter. In almost every community bank
ers, real estate men and local cham
bers of commerce have devised, or are
now devising, plans that will enable
any reputable man of family to build
his home this year. After the house
is erected, the cost can be paid as rent,
covering q period of years. In this
way every man can own his home.
When the satisfaction that comes
with the possession of a home is con-
sidered, the responsibility that many
people are loath to assume is well paid
for. The home owner is the respected
man in his community. He is a fix
tura that every other good citizen looks
up to. His credit is good, and can be
| capitalized when needed. If the time
comes when he is compelled for any
reason to raise money, he has the fin
est security in the world, piece of
improved real estate.
II certainly pays to build a home
asl; anyone who has one. And now is
the time to build. While prices are
higher than they were before the Unit.
