problems would be to inaugurate permanent nationwide
campaign for home ownership
His idea is that the of most of day
trouble is the lack of family stability.
The home does not desert his wife and children.
He does not suffer from wanderust. He takes strong
interest in his community
The purchase of his home his ambition his
Being permanently located, he is better husband
better father better citizen, and better worker.
The you think about this matter the you will
be convinced that it is fundamental.
The strength of the small of this country is rooted
in home ownership and without stretching the truth it

One of the most substantial cities in the country Day.
ton Ohio and the explanation of this the high percentage
of citizens who their homes Street street
lined with small residences occupied by their owners who
work in the factories of Dayton.
In the downtown section you discover the chief

purchase homes through weekly payments.
So strong and thoroughly intrenched the building
and loan associations of Dayton that the banks and trust

be forthcoming from difficult
to conceive of business that would be benefited by
wider distribution of home ownership
And the best feature of this work that it would self

present overhead costs of city, most of which

HARVEST HOME

The annual Harvest Home celebra-
tion, held under the auspices of the
women of the Ebenezer Methodist
Episcopal Church, was held at White
mans Grove, on last Thursday and
was attended by several hundred far
tiers and their families from this
vicinity.
Politicians and candidates who ex-
pect to run for Office at the coming
primaries took advantage of the occa-
sion to circulate among their friends
and there was hardly man who is
seeking office this year who was not
in attendance.
Harvest Home has been an annual
event for many years and the affair
last week was attended by people, not
only from Delaware, but from adjoin-
ing counties, in Maryland and Penn
sylvania. The weather man was good
and sent excellent weather for the
affair. The day was taken up with
usual picnic events, there being all
kinds of amusements for the children,
while the older boys and girls took
part in sporting events. There was a
baseball game in the afternoon. More
than 1000 persons were served with
dinner and supper prepared by the
ladies in charge, the meals served at
Harvest Home have become one OF
the features of the event.
