Your taste in homemaking would make any community proud. The town and farm homes in the area depict the prosperity that our commun- ity enjoys. These homes will always stand as a challenge to other commun- ities. You, Mr. and Mrs. Home- maker, are indeed to be con- gratulated for the way you keep adding to your home's comfort and beauty. Some of you are fortunate enough to have the ready cash you need to keep your homes the way you want them, while others must operate their homes within a limited budget. But whether you run your home on a budget or with unlimited • capital, you can have any type home you desire. The local financial in- stitutions can and will finance most types of home construction or improvements. If you feel your home is not up to par and in need of repairs or modernization, consult any local contractor or building material firm, interior decorator, paint store, furniture or appliance dealer. Tell them your wishes, and they will supply you with the latest material, dependable labor and best possible service — all at a price to fit your budget. You, as a homemaker, should take advantage of these wonderful opportunities while our nation is at peace and enjoying an all-time prosperity. Now is the time to build that extra room, sun porch, bath, new kitchen, patio, install central heating or air conditioning.
