Says an exchange: "When you boom
the building association you boom the town.
No real estate goes begging whereEthere is
a live building association. There is moth
ing that makes a citizen so prosperous and
contented as to be member of an associa-
ton where he is either saving money or
paying for home" To which the Lowell
Sournal adds: s'We have had an associa-
ton organized here for Is months and no
other enterprise that has ever been estab-
Iished in this place has done as much for the
town." The same may be truthfully said
of every other town where one of these as
socations is established Banner.
Every word of the above is true. Many
Owosso people have homes and in few
years will own them clear of debt, who
could never have done so II 1t had not been
for the Shiawassee Savings and Loan Asso-
citation.
