Summary "Better Homes in America: Plan Book for Demonstration Week October 9 to 14, 1922" is a collection of guidelines and insights aimed at promoting the idea of improving homes across America, likely written in the early 20th century. The focus of this publication is to organize a national campaign that encourages communities to demonstrate improvements in home ownership, sanitation, and furnishing during a specific week dedicated to better living standards. The opening of the book communicates a strong endorsement from President Calvin Coolidge for the Better Homes Campaign, highlighting the importance of home ownership in fostering good citizenship and well-being. It emphasizes the need for communities to showcase model homes equipped with modern amenities, stressing that improved living conditions can significantly enhance the quality of life. The initial chapters outline the foundation of this campaign, key governmental figures involved, and the plan to actively engage local citizens to participate in the demonstrations that collectively aim to elevate the standard of homes throughout the nation.
