Fried, State Chairman Library Extension, of Wom en's Clubs. The Better Homes movement grew 'out of a Home Ownership movement begun Ohio several years ago. Later it was endorsed by President Harding. An advisory council was formed, and governors from 2S nates consented to cooperate so I hat the work might be given national scope. All the states in the Union and Alaska were represented in the 1922 campaign. Much has been accomplished in this brief period of time to bring this worthy subject, "Better Homes." to the attention and interest of the people generally. Women are show ing not only individual interest in '.the subject (this tra y have always jesting the in ! d me); but they aie iu! selves vitally in this subject in their organized groups, one ct these oui stannirg groups being the General l"ederati:ri of Women's e!u:s. Today Better Homes campaigns are I loin:r conducted from an edncri t ion- al basK They emphasize the fact tr.cit use tuiure m.-tory 01 America tkcit the Jwill be shaped in large measure by the character of its homes. "Better : Homes" means ohmes tnar are con;--fo-t:.ble. sanitary, beautiful, simple . restul. helpful homes that are easily managed. The importance of the ' easily managed home was shown by the recent survey of the equipment of the homes throughout the United States made by the General Feder ation of Woman's clubs through it" I department of the American Home. The first American Hemes congress , held ir, Des Moines last March re corded the tremendous awakening on the part of men and women to the ; importance of the establishment and maintenance of efficient housekeep ing and homt-iuaking standards.
