THE HIPPY HOME And How to Get It is Theme of Mrs. Gene Statton- Porter in a Story IN M’( ALL S MAGAZINE A Cool Veranda, a Fireplace, a Bath and an Automobile Are Necessary. Gene Strutton-Porter, author of “The Girl of the Limberlost” and “Her Father's Daughter,” writing in the April Issue of MvCnll's says that the road to happiness lies in owning a bit of ground and a roof of your own. “No man can love the home he rents,” says Mrs. Stratton-Porter, who. in the course of the article tells how even the humblest home may be a happy one. “The home atmosphere depends altogether on the people who live in the house,” writes Mrs. StrattonPorter. “There are people in this world who, if they had a million dollars, could not build a real home. Conversely, somo have taken an abandoned barn and made it an attractive home. Men and women born with the homing instinct will have a home just as a |>air of mating birds will build a nest —from whatever materiulsi they can find to use. Nailion Depends on Homes "It is an ancient truism that the strength of a nation depends on its homes. When our forefathers faced the wilderness and built their homes in it, when they defended these homes against savages and prowling animals, when they found therein the only comfort and entertainment their world liad to offer them, home had a meaning deep and strong. Night and

morning they knelt and thanked God, first for life, next for food, and iinme diately thereafter for shelter. The strength of the nation, tlieft, did do-' pend on the men who hud strength to evolve homes. It may be that the people of today I who are living on other people's property or In apartment houses or hotels arose at the call of their country and fought as valiantly ns men could fight. Personally I believe that the man who fought for Ills own roof, or the fireside lie had built with his own hands, for the cradle of his children, tile shelter of his wife, and his own peace, fought a better fight than the man who homed in property belonging to someone else. Os one thing I ’ am absolutely sure: no man can love the home he rents In a hotel or an apartment, or the house he rents, as a man loves the home he hits brought into being on his own bit of ground. The Three Parts of a Home "To me, a home has throe component parte: A generous vine-covered cool veranda; a big, wide, glowing, i comfortable fireplace, and a bath room with hot and cold water. These! are the prime essentials. Grouped somewhere round them, according to the necessities of the builder, there should bo sleeping apart mnts, a kitchen and living rooms. “I believe a great many people who started with the home instinct have had it almost killed because they burdened themselves with such big houses so finely furnished that the economy of taking proper care of their possessions wore them out. Especially is this true since the war; has raised the cost of living and made the cost of good help in many; cases prohibitive, in others extremely difficult. "If I were building a house today, I should figure waste space by thei inch. I would not roof over one foot I of space I was not compelled to have' in order to live my life comfortably. This may seem a selfish thing to say. In my childhood 1 was heartily in sympathy with homes that were built to entertain one’s relatives and friends. “Today the exigencies of life are such that, if a woman undertakes to build atjd personally to keep such a house as she would have built when she could have had from two to half-a-dozen efficient servants—she will herself become a servant and nothing more. It is not possible for one woman to care for a big house, to be a real companion for a man, to mother and rear a family and have any time left for religion, politics or social intercourse. Fireplace the Heart “The inevitable veranda 1 would have; a living room just the size to fit my present and prospective family; the fireplace because it is the heart, the pulse, the very soul ‘of a home; just enough bedroom space to accommodate my family, a guest chamber if possible, and a dining room and kitchen. “If one can have servants and has means to do as one chooses, elaborate these plans. It is wonderful to have a big airy home, room for guests, and all the comforts and convenience of life; but in this'Year of Our Lord people are beginning to realize that, if one cannot have these things it is wise to find happiness without the overwork which may lead to ill health or death. “The advent of the automobile came at a time when strenuous work on the part of half a dozen naturelovers had opened the eyes of the world to the fact that all the joy of life was not to be found under a roof. I rejoice and thank the Lord for the Ford automobile and any other car within the reach of the daily laborer and his family. “No one thing in the civilization of America ever did sc much for the welfare of the great common body of the people of this country as the i car which took the overworked, poorly dressed, tired housewife out of her kitchen and away from her washtub, and whisked her to the seashore, to the lakes, to the brooks and the forests where the sun was shining and the cardinal singing his ‘good cheer songs, .and the water whispering secrets so very easy for the human heart to translate if it can only come within sound of them. Automobile a Blessing “People learned speedily that after working all week it was not necessary for mother to stay at home and intake the hardest day of the week | the day on which she cooked for her family and a crowd of neighbors and friends. "The family has learned that it I may throw a few things into a basket and go to the woods and while father makes a fire and boils the I coffee, brother may spread the rugs, 'sister may set the table, and mother (may have time to realize that her feet are a means of locomotion rather than a source of pain. “I certainly should cut the building and furnishing of a house to such an extent to admit at the very earliest possible minute, the purchase and upkeep of a car. “In building a home there is no excuse a,t the present time for any
