HOMESTEADSSEEN AID T0 OWNERSHP Associations There Help Children to Plan Their Own Abodes of Future. "Phe preservation of family home- steads throughout the country will do more than any other effort to continue the home-owning idea through the next generation, says Herbert U. Nelson, executive secretary of the National As- sociation of Real Estate Boards in the association’s ninety-first of a series of stories for. the public. “An_old family homestead, mellow with beauty of -age, set back from the street, perhaps in a flower garden, can exert & tremendous influence in the lives of children grown and gone ‘flxt into the world,” says Mr. Nelson. “To begin with the continuance of the family homestead can hold the family together. If the home is still there, and one or both of the parents are liv- in it, the members of the family will revisit it. They will get together on Christmas and holidays, for vaca- tions and visits with the old folks. “They won't have a chance to forget the ideals that perhaps made this home possible.

It's a long road we have traveled, but with determination we are marching straight forward—because we like to arrive! We learn by living—and we have lived through 1929-30 to learn that on the road of Life there are no short cuts to wealth.
