HOMES AND SAVINGS.
One of thc most successful
purely mutual institutions in
the United States is the local
building and loan association.
It does more to build up a town
than any other influerice. In
some parts of thc country the
shares mature at $100, and it
takes about six and one-half
years to mature them. In
Philadelphia the shares mature
at $200, and it takes about
eleven and three-quarter years
to mature them. In Dayton,
Ohio, the shares run either
$100 or $200 maturity, and
there are no series. Each man
subscribing for stock is a series
by himself.
All three of the plans work
all right in localities where
they are practically worked and
well known, and it will not be
Ion i till any association will
sell shares of either $100
maturity or $200 maturity,
whichever the subscriber wants.
Also, the issue of stock to in-
dividuals al any tiipe it is ap-
plied foi, allhough originating
in Ohio, has extended far be-
yond alieady, These exten-
sions are making slow head-
way, hut the headway ought

shares has worked so well that
it ought not he jeopardized

We hear from time to time
of plans to facilitate the owner-

the plan all worked out to a
finish. Wherever a building
and loan prospers, the owner-
ship of homes increases. Phil-
adelphia has been made a city
of working men's homes by
and through the building and
loan association.
Then aside from this great
beneficial character, it is the
