'Ml. Build a; Home For Your Family
A small, cramped, stuffy suite of rooms won't bring your
children the health and happiness they are entitled to. Make
yourself and family independent of the "For Rent" -signs which
carry the footnote "No Children."..
Build a home for them, out in the edge of the
city, where the sun shines on wide meadows,
where bird-songs are heard on Fall breezes from
the rustling, shady trees. Out where they can
romp and play and grow to strong young man
hood and womanhood.
