THE OLD DOMINION COOPERATIVE
BUILDING ASSOCIATION is now closing
up its affairs, after very successful
run of twelve years. The association
has been run upon strictly mutual
plan and, unlike the national building
associations, it has paid what it has
promised although it did not hold out
the alluring bait of a 90 or % per cent.
dividend it did pay handsomely. Upon
the payment of$l44 the association has
paid 20 each stakeholder dividend Of
$669S. At no time time since its or
ganization has it refused to redeem the
stock of any one, who, by reason OF cir
cumstances, could not keep up, and has
always paid the full amount paid in and
fair rate Of interest, deducting only
% cents per share as All initiation fee.
