DEFoRE you start looking for the little
Id house that's just right for you, you had
better find out first whether you will be
happy in it.
mot everyone is" says Leslie B. Kull,
Westchester, N. Y, realtor who has dealt
both in homes and apartments for many
years. mo question about it - some people
are better off in apartments than in homes
of their own"
The man who enjoys his own home has
cultivated green thumb and has learned
to use tool kit moderately well. Week ends,
you'll see him working around the place.
But the unhappy homeowner is still, in his
heart, an apartment dweller. He is mentally
waiting for the landlord to fix up the place.
Or his spare time may be unusually limited.
So before you sign that mortgage take
this quiz. 1t will give you fair idea of how
good homeowner you are likely to be.
Score five points for each question to which
your answer is YES:
!. Do neighbors ,Ualking overhead
bother you more than kids and dogs
making a racket outdoors?
YES NO
There is no ivory tower. You take your pick
between city hubbub and suburban noises.
Z. Can you sit in one spot and relax?
YES NO
There's no point in owning property un-
less you enjoy using it. Sun bathing, reading
in hammock or slipping an iced drink while
you loll in lawn chair - these are some of
the rewards of homeownership
;. Do you enjoy - really enjoy - be-
ing hOspit0bIe, having guests for meals,

You'll have many more casual. neighborly
visits, once you become acquainted, in
home of your own than you will in an apart
ment. And remember. you'll serve meals to
the people who now visit you evenings, since
they travel farther to see you.
4. Do you like to dip a pGintbTMsh
into a fresh can Of paint or sUhGcIt a nail
,Uith hammer? YES NO
Unless you are very we'll loaded with cash,
you'll have to cut corners by doing good
many of the odd jobs yourself. Never mind
the know-how - that comes with expert
ence - but be sure you are ready to give it
an optimistic try.
s. Are you ,cilling to put up ,Cith bad
service? SeJ-seruice? YES NO
you like being waited on hand and foot,
stay in the city, where call on the house
phone brings the handyman running.
6. When you hare a sVirdfGlI, do you
automatically spend it on your home,
rather tina" yourself? YES NO
The house is for all of you, but if the new
suit and the $50 shoes are very important to
you, you may resent the new expenses result
ing from homeownership.
7. Are you made less miserable than
most people by unexpected expenses?
YES NO
No doubt about it, homeowners have to
dig into their pockets once in while for
dollars they could well use elsewhere.
Q. Do you like to get off in a room by
yourself sometimes? YES NO

Unite to Fight

The patience of a group citizens covering large

continuance OF an open dump which the City operating
right in the midst of thckly populated section of the

representatives of Negroes from walk of life were
unanimous in the effort to obtain immediate halt to the
operation of this open dump which has proved to be

nauseating odors
Some of the most influential white men and women

their whoeheared support in Kidding the CITY of this
unfortunate condition
Dr. H. I. Penn pointed out the undeniable fact that
while this condition exists in the Negro community tbe
spread OF the deadly be confined there
because of those Negro residents are engaged in
domestic service in of the citys most fashionable
homes across town There too the germs can easily be

1t was reported that in both Lucy Addison High

School, flies gather in uncomfortable swarms accom-
panied by the deadly odors from the dump
Others reported giant size rats and reaches in nm
oeeVable numbers. At times residents in that section
OF the city are unable to sit their porches or on their
lawns account of the sckening fumes and tormentino
flies and mosquitoes.
This group reported that with tolerance patience
and endurance they have waited and done everything
that they knew how persuade the city officials TO
