The Comforts of the American Home } It is a well-known fact that, home for home, the American household has more comforts and conveniences than that of any other nation. In foreign lands the modernized dwelling is found only in the better sections of the larger cities. Everywhere in America you find the piano, the vacuum cleaner, washing machines, up-to-date heating systems, telephones and numberless electrical appliances. There is a well-kept look about residence, store or out-buildings, with an atmosphere of prosperity and content. Did you ever stop to realize why this is so; how this condition was brought about? It is largely due to advertising. Stop and think how many of the foods you eat, the things you wear and other articles entering into your everyday life, you first heard of through advertisements. You will then realize what a part they do play, or should play, in your daily life. Read the advertisements regularly and thoroughly, if you are not already doing so. They mean more to you than you can tell.
