In 87 cities from Bangor to San Bernardino, most families own their homes, have savings accounts and investments, and value electricity and labor-saving devices. Two thirds use autos for recreation, with radios, phonographs, and pianos common. Few housewives have full-time servants, yet households show thrift, progress, and stable home life.
