March, 1912 



Nesting Time is at Hand 



THERE are few occupations in human life that we put more heart into than in the building of a home; 

 and it's a sadder thing than we like to admit, perhaps, when the building goes awry. A home 

 that is built so well that it will serve the needs of more than one generation, and in such pure taste 

 that children's children need not be ashamed of it, is a human achievement greater than most that we accom- 

 plish. So it pays to start right. If you are in the midst of it now, or only beginning your plans, it will 

 pay you to get a copy of Country Life in America for March 15th. It has been prepared just for you.
