Good Home Only Sure
I nv estment That IsLef t
Economic Distress
Unable To Detract
From Its Value
Money Invested in Home Pur
elmse* Security Beyond
Reach of Depression
Good investments are exceedingly
rare these days ... a good home to
be occupied by your own family is
about the only "sure thing" left.
Money invested in a home has pur
chased security and satisfaction be
yond the reach of the next depres
sion.?'???C
Housing is a necessity in* both
goo dand bad times No general ec
onomic distress, which may greatly
impair the value of most other forms
of wealth, can detract from the
year-in and year-out service of your
home . . . its value to you is as con
stant as your need for shelter.
The resale value of a good resi
dence on the open market at any
particular time is subject to less vio
lent fluctuation than investments
which depend upon the state of busi
ness profits for their value.
A home is definitely not a specu
lative investment.
The record of the last period nf ser- -
ious financial distress is a clear one.
In countless American families the
only tangible savings which remain
ed after the bank holidays of 1933
were those invested in the home.
Analyze Loan Costs
When you negotiate for a home
loan ascertain ail charges to be made
you as borrower. Interest is not the
only item. Some of the things to ask
about besides interest are escrow
CONSTRUCTION
The ronstruetiun of a six-room
bungalow for Mr. and Mrs. J.
C. Cooke was started this week.
The brick-veneer home is being
built on Academy Street next to
the Brown and Eason homes.
It is reported that contracts
for several other homes are
pending and indications are
that the fall construction calen
dar will be fairly active here
this year.
Sha|>e Of Structure
Affects Home Costs
The primary factors which gov
ern economy in house construction
include the shape of the house, the
use of stock materials, and the sim
plicity with which the structural
shell can be framed, according to the
Technical Division of the Federal
Housing Administration.
The amount of outside wall and
roof area required to enclose a given
amount of space makes the shape of
the house of considerable import
ance, it is pointed out. The square
is described us the most economical
shape since it proviHiis t^e mai
mum amount of floor area with the
least amount of wall area. Corner
construction costs more than straight
wall construction with the result
that square and rectangular shaped
plans are less costly than L, U, or Z
shapes. The square, or rectangular
fee, appraisal fee, title policy cost,
service charges, commissions, and
'other" charges.
Termite Control
Is Discussed Here
The emphasis placed upon termite
destruction in recent years has been
accompanied by various misconcep
tions.
Among common misconceptions is
that of the invasion of localities by
the insects. Authorities agree that
termites seldom move far from their
original habitat, that subterranean
type termites are not transported in
lumber*or timber, and that thry do
not migrate from the tropics or from
the southern to the northern states.
Termites are found throughout the
world and are naives of practically
all localities between latitudes 50
degrees north and 50 degrees south.
Termites, it is admitted, may be more
numerous and destructive in some
localities than in others.
In many instances, it is pointed out,
their damage can be traced to ne
glect of sound principles of con
struction, which has encouraged de
cay and permitted ready entrance of
termites.
shape also is said to simplify the
structural framing system of both
floor and roof and thus to effect eoon
omies.
The technical division also recom
mends that the size and arrangement
of moms in house plans permit the
use of standard-size floor and ceil
ing joists without waste of labor and
materials. When tins is done rooms of
maximum size are provided by
given amount of htbor and materials.
It is also recommended that the plan
permit the use of a simple structur
al framing system for floor, walls
and roofs.
