= BUILDING
Says Good Home-Makina
Inuolues the High Arts

Chicago, In keeping with the rest of
the United States, is turning its atten-
ti0n to the national movement for bet
ter homes Various womens clubs and
other social agencies, in programs and
other forms Of service, are teaching
the lessons of "better homes, better
citizens"
Attractive homes that add to the
comfort of adults and provide interest
ing surroundings for adolescent and
juvenile members of the household are
fundamental requisites for happy fam
lilies, according to the originators of the
movement.
Hendrix Van Loon in his history of
mankind, after reviewing all the
phases of statecraft industry and re-
ligion that have influenced the making
Of our race and civilization what 1t is
today, and after recording the influence
Of various leaders in military, scientific
and literary achievements, says Rem
brandt Beethoven and Rodin are the
prophets and leaders of the race.
"a world without art and happiness
is like nursery without laughter" In
other words, art in its various forms
has been the liberator of the race. No
civilization can exist without art. But
of all the various phases of art, that
of the small house and its contents and
surroundings is most difficult to
achieve, yet most vital to happy life
and satisfactory community or ma
ton.
A beautiful home has the power to
attract attention, improve conduct,
compel respect, bind families and
friends together, form communities,
found states and create nations. Men
and women reared in and among beau
tiful homes acquire good taste from
them and seldom II ever do very
ugly thing. Good home-making in
wolves all the high arts and produces
the most happiness for us all.
The small homes are Just as impor-
tant or more important than large
homes from moral, economic and pa
triotic point of view. The building of
homes is matter of most vital con-
cern to the welfare Of nation.
Homeless citizens and families, wheth-
er rich or poor, are not potentially the
best citizens.
A citizen with rent receipt and
a foreigner with passport have sim
liar uninterested and irresponsible
mental attitudes toward the commu-
nifty, town or state.

My Little Town
> 4%++44%++4++4%+%%4%%%%

My Little Town in summer
Dons soft, leaf-shadowed air,
And every street grows blossom sweet,
And every garden fair.
And all the little houses,
Their windows open wide.
Are talking to their neighbors
OF the loveliness outside.
My Little Town In winter
Wears plain. unbending mien.
And gaunt and bare its houses start,
With drifted lawns between.
But when the winter evenings
In cold gray settle down,
And home bound feet in every street
Pass through My Little Town.
Then from each lighted window
The little homes begin
To whisper to their neighbors
OF the warmth and Joy within.

Nicholas Magazine.
