Save Rent, Don't Make the Landlord Rich. :: Pay Rent to Yourself If you have not the money now to build a large home, build a small place on the back of your lot and later you can add to it and have a fine home. While you pay rent you cheat yourself and your family. Every dollar the landlord gets is lost to you and your dear ones. Be a real citizen, own a home. No man can call himself a real citizen who lives in a rented house. It stiffens up your backbone and gives you a firmer grip on life to own your own home. Yes, give the family a chance, let the wife have a place all her own that she will be proud to improve and call it a "real home." Think of the dandy garden, the flowers and vegetables, clean and fresh, that you can grow on YOUR OWN HOME PLACE. But you must begin and we make it so easy for you. All you need is a little energy, a little "get thereness" in your character. Just think! $5 will buy the lot, then a little money for lumber and your own labor Saturday afternoons and Sunday and right away you have a home. Just a small place at first but after all it is "HOME' and then watch it grow. The money you are now throwing away for rent receipts will mighty soon help make that little place grow into a big house, that you and the family will be proud to call "home." Remember, our prices are the lowest in Hammond, the soil is ideal for gardens, the terms are so easy, just $5 down and $5 per month, no taxes and no interest for 2 years, splendid car service, pleasant neighbors, near school and stores and churches.
