ono Is put to work. hard times will be forgotten, and you and and our neighbor will be sharing the re- wards of prosperity.
 Advertisers OHer Lower Costs
 All in all, there is no way of spending more effectively or invest ing more soundly than to build or modernize your home. The adver- tisers on this page. in the interests of the unemployed, and in your in- terests as we'll as their own, are of fering their labor and materials and professional services at phenom- enally low cost. They are cooper- ating with the nationwide Building movement, endorsed by President Hoover, and actively supported by immense federal and state appro- priations.
 Please remember! You and l. the householders of 1881, can make great savings. At the same time. we can put the unemployed to work. thereby doing double service to ourselves and our country. Motives are beside the point. It's the results that matter. And the results of Building are Jobs for the Jobless. and Prosperity.

EXTENSIVE ADVANTAGE CAN BIZ
 TAKEN OF OPPORTUNITIES OF- TERED BY DROP IN BUILDING COSTS

Let's not quibble over motives. Whether to relieve the unemploy- ment situation or to take advantage of the greatest bargains in Building history the American public has be- gun to build. And when the Amer ican public begins building, the spell is broken, and Prosperity prepares 10 pay the nation another delight full visit.
 Logical enough isn't it? The prices of labor and materials and professional services are low, eX- tremely low, too low. But you and I can't help that. So. owning a house that wants repairing or re- modelling, or having house to build we bounce upon this unique opportunity. We buy while the buy ing is good. We turn national mis- fortune into personal gain.

Return to Normal Times

This all sounds very selfish. But in reality it is precisely the opposite. By buying materials. labor and pro- fessional services, we pour money into circulation, stimulate business, give the unemployed employme ent, start the economic ball a-rolling. We do a wonderful bit towards hastening the return of Prosperity.
 Perhaps it's just the old truth in new dress: that the individual good is the common good, and the com- mon good is the individual good. Certainly, there has never been a more opportune time for painting a house or clustering a room. or bringing ones plumbing up to date. or buying a door-knob. and certain ly to do any of these things is to put someone to work.
