AN ONWARD, UPWARD MOVE
MENT.
HAVE

You noticed our progress in past fis-
cal year?
II is not surprising that the manage.
ment is somewhat jubilant over the
marvelous showing of the past fscal
year and the even better showing of
the summer months since June. It
wouldn't be natural for the Secretary
to feel aggrieved at the signal endorse
ment which the public has given to
the "Phoenix" plan; and he wouldn't
be the right kind of a Secretary II he
had not given his field agents the ma
jor portion Of the credit.
The increase for the last year was
larger in actual assets. larger In per.
centage of assets, larger In shares
written, and larger in point of mem.
bership than any other association in
the West. The gains have been phe-
fiscal year; that is, in the six months
from January to July of the current
year.
At the end Of the fiscal year, June
80, 1902, the shares in force had In.
creased over 10000. The percentage
of gain on assets is nearly 800 per
cent. The gain in loans is even more
than in assets.
The most remarkable showing Of all
is to be found In the shares movement
since January last. Bringing this
right up to September LIST, 1902, It
shows as follows:

We do not, as the system OF loaning

special Inducements to the small in
vestor in this financial institution, and
centralize small monthly payments
from a large number of people who
probably have never saved to amount
TO anything before. The large sums
that we receive are from capitalists
who are tired of making fiat loans and
worrying with the bother and trouble
of selling out the security which would
come back to them and are satisfied
that to have their money managed by
experienced financiers who guarantee
them against loss is much better than
investing their own money. No
money deposited with us can be
withdrawn within one year. for that
reason our proposition applies to peo.

With subscribed and contributing

not be matter of great surprise II
the holdings of the Association repre-
sent gain of so per cent more in as-
sets for the half year and one that
will afford a stimulus to agents and
subscribers.
1t is a well established fact that
mere size does not always denote
worth or stability in financial insti-
tuition. The Phoenix" does not lay
so much stress on its rapidly increas-
ing proportions as 1t does upon the
healthy character of its growth. For
example, out of hundreds of loans
there are but six loans in arrears and
but SSS.26 of delinquent interest due.
The 100000 reserve fund has to take
care of these delinquent loans II not
paid. On Jupe 30th there was but one
loan in arrears for longer period
than one month.
Next to its asset account they say
that its dividend account is the best
barometer of an associations condi-
tion. or course, dividends could not
be satisfactory If there were much
idle money. In the past two years
the phoenix" has led all of its COM
petitors in the roster of California as
sociations. II is the foremost assocla-
tion in the West. If this is not rec

iarity through other sources. The
above sentence is not intended to con.
vey the meaning that interest on de.
posits for call money should be large.
In fact, the banks are paying today a
very liberal rate for money subject to
call, and It would be hazardous for
them to pay larger rates. The question
for today to answer as per one of our
former articles is, Why do you pay
larger rates of dividends than other
financial institutions do?
First-You are a stockholder in this
institution Just the same as IL you
we're stockholder in any other finan-
cial institution, and consequently get
your full proportion of profits, accord
ing to the stock carried.
Second We loan money on
installments, thereby getting the use
of the money one-half over again.
Third-A premium is placed upon
persistency by exacting from the with
drawing member sufficient for his por-
ton of expenses and also a certain
portion of his profits.
Fourtb-we compound and handle
money monthly.
Fifth-In case Of stringent times
the profits from Withdrawals are added
to the ones who stay through.
Sixth-ln case of good times the ex-
panding of business produces a larger
field for loans, which enables us to put
out paid up stock through our direct
ors and other large financiers, and
guarantee a rate Of six per cent. The
difference between the said six per
cent and the dividend rate Of the
company 0ess small pro rata Of ex'
penses) is turned into the installment
