CLEANING IS A SIGN OF OWNERSHIP:

Renting a house or apartment is no reason to avoid cleaning just because it’s rented. 

Ownership is a responsibility, and a housewife rises to that responsibility whether she rents or owns. 

Renting is a proving ground, and when a housewife who rents proves that she can care for her residence she is better prepared for home ownership. 

If a housewife doesn’t own her home, she still owns what is in it, and she has pride in her domicile and cleans it with as much care as if it were a home she owned, because living in a clean home is always better than living in a dirty home, whether it’s rented or owned.
