communities. People who are right on the
spot when you need them.
So it's hardly surprising that Americans are
now putting more of their hard-earned saving:s
account dollars into insured Savings and Loan
Associations than they put anywhere else.
And here’s another important point: When
you're thinking of buying a home, remember
that these Associations are the nation’s larg
est single source of home mortgage loans!
They make liberal loans. They see to it that
you get the money quickly—and at moder

Home Planning Time ls Now
If You Build Next Spring / /
If you're hoping your dream
home will reach the hammer and
saw stage by next spring, now is
the time to start laying the
ground work — on paper.
The Small Homes Council
recommends major points to con
sider before the surveyor even
cocks an eye through his tranit.
~ Site and Plan, — You must
consider size, shape and special
features of the house you plan
to build before buying a lot. If
yvou have chosen one of the
lovely, comfortable modern
homes of natural wood, surround
ings of the growing things of
nature are highly complemen
tary., You must consider loca
tion of schools, ehurch, work and
shopping. There are also city
regulations and future require
ments to keep in mind.
Financing — It's a good rule

Build so Help
Working Mother
The American Institute of
Life Insurance recently reported
that almost 20 million. women
are employed outside the home
in the United States.
Os this total more than 11 mil
lion are married and five mil
lion are mothers.
Why do mothers work or go
back to work as they have been
doing in a steady parade since
the end of World War 1I? The
Department of Labor says infla
t'on, the desire for money to
spend on luxuries and home
improvements, the monotony of
house work, the need for money
to educate children — these are
factors that cause mothers to
seek outside employment.
Whatever their motive for
working, these mothers have be
come an important force in the
housing market. Builders agk
themselves, “What kind of house
appeals to the working mother?”
When they get the right answer
fto limit monthly: mortgage, tax
| and insurance payments to not
| more than 20 percent of your
| monthly income. Maintenance
| crsts are also a factor. Your arch- |
itect can give you an overall
| cost estimate,.
' Building Contract — Before
isigning any contracts for build
|ing of your new home, discuss |
| the work and make sure all de-'
!tails are mutually understood.!
| This should also include arrange- |
| ments for additional charges ors
| “extras.” {
| Construction — Sound, good-!
| construction is economical, for
| there are fewer repairs, lowerg
| maintenance casts, money saved. |
| Wood homes in America are |
itime tested — at any rate, eight‘
[out of every ten houses are
| built of wood, for it is beau
tiful, easy to maintain and ad- |
| aptable. Your home can be beau-l
| tiful and distlinctive if you use |
{one of the popular siding or |
| board-and-batten patterns in]
{ Douglas fir, west coast hemlock |
| or western red cedar. !
| Interior Finish — Wood is ad- |
| aptable to a greater variety of{
fine finishes than any other|
building matersal known, It mayi
| be left natural, stained, painted,
| used rough, papered over —_ |
| there are limiitless possibilities.

For Pime Cones
‘ ‘ |
Sports Flashes
| By DRUID N. PRESTON ;
‘ County Ranger ;
The Newton County Forestry
{Unit will pay cash for loblolly}
| pine cones. The forestry unit
| will pay $1.25 per bushel for the[
green loblolly pine cones. The
green cones are now Tipe herel
in Newton County and will be |
accepted by the unit. . g
! All persons or organizations |
|interested in gathering cones
lshould contact the forestry unitl
at the Newton Fire Tower or
phone 3742. 5
Last vear many civic clubs,
rural organizations and youth
| groups throughout Georgia gain
| ed extra money for their organi
;zation‘s treasuries by picking
| pine cons during the collection
season. The same opportunities
will exist this season, not only
for clubs and similar organiza
tions, but for individuals as
| well.
" Last year in Newton County,
[over 100,000 seedlings were
planted. Statewide, the total was
over 100 million. An even great
|er planting program is planned
Ifor this year, and in future years,
and the Georgia Forestry Com
| mission must have pine cones if
|they are to have the seeds for
| this planting program.
| they find that the house not only
{ appeals to working mothers but
to all other mothers (who says
they don’t work).
Here.are some of the features
that made the working mother’s
job easier, providing she can pay
ifor them, and often she can:
I.— Automation — Work-sav
ing appliances come at the top
of the list. Built-in ovens, dish
| washers, driers, garbage dispos
ers, automatic washers , .. all
appeal to the working mother
because they save her time. They
provide automation in the home,
or the nearest thing to it.
2. — Floor Plan — if every
| tning can be on one floor, in
cluding the utility room, that's
all to the good. Separate entrance
halls at both back and front
doors help keep dirt out of the
major living areas.
3, — Air Conditioning — ehan
ces are mother is employed n
an sir conditioned office or fac
tory. Air conditioning at home
protects her health and reduces }
the amount of noise and dirt.
4. — Sound Conditioning -
Although scientists have proved
that noise really doesn't impair
‘ncrvu or health, it can be a|
| source of- irritation to a moth- |
| er who's already put in eight |
‘hnurs in a busy office or fac-{
tory. Well-insulated walls and |
'ncmmtical ceilings reduce the |
| nerve jangling noise. l
i 5. Maintenance-Free Materials |
4. Hard surface materials in
pbathroom, countertops, hall
ways are easier to clean. Also,
don't forget father. If mother |
works, it puts an extra burden |
on him, so on the outside ofl
the home should go materials‘
like insulating siding which needs
no painting or staining. With in
sulating siding on the house,
father has more time for help
ing mother and doing yard work.
g‘hese are five basic features
that builders consider important
in a home where mother works
| at an outside job. And of course
the same features appeal 10|
homemakers of all ages and ty- |
pes. Such homes don't go unsold
for long.
