Upon my return Mary was more
composed. Jane had dressed her hair

the French king, and my heart was
full of trouble-from more causes than
you can know. All the council, espe-
cially that butchers son, were urging
him on, and Henry himself was anx-

brought about. He thought it would
strengthen him for the imperial crown.
He wants everything and is ambitious
to be emperor. Emperor! He would
cut a pretty figure! hoped, though,

incorporated by non-union men and
with the object in view OF resisting

SAFE BUILDING AND LOAN.
[Cedar Rapids Republican,


| In the comment that has been made
! on wild cat insurance, building and
loan associations have often come In
/ for condemnation along with invest
nent associations ana other frauds
To speak of building and loan associ2-
/ lions 4 generally in terms of contempt
is by no means warranted. The criti-
cisms referred TO undoubtedly We're
aimed at what was known as the ma
tional building and loan associations
through which many frugal people
lost their hard earned savings. These
concerns operated over wide areas and
| through agents who We're often dis
honest. The security was misreprd
sented and losses and failures almost
without number resulted.
But there are building and loan as
sociations that are as stable as the
most conservatively managed savings
banks, and they are doing a work I'M
equalled for benefcience anywhere.
Cedar Rapids has number of such
institutions. They are managed by
Well known business men. Their OPP
eratons are purely local. They make
no loans outside the city and no loan
tigation and n thorough discussion
touching the merits of the loan, before
a full board, and then only for a con-
servative percentage of the value of the
property. Such loan is good to be-
gin with, and it becomes n better loan
each month because the principal of
the loan is being constantly reduced
Building and loan associations had
their beginnings in genuine philan-
thropy. the purpose being 10 enable
people of moderate means to own their
own homes. Philadelphia is Il splendid
Illustration of their beneficience That
city has any number OF associations
combining their operations to Philadel-
phia. and ii has been through these
associations that the city has become
conspicuous among all the great cities
OF the world as a city of homes.
The associations that brought build
ing and loan into disrepute operate
upon no such conservative plan as has
been outlined above. Many of these
other end in view than exorbitant pro-
fits for the members of the governing
boards. They attempted to extend their
business not only over many ctlllNun-
tiles but also over many states. They
appointed agents in each community
and applications We're received through
them and the loan was made solely
upon their recommendations. Quite
naturally many of these agents We're
incompetent or dishonest, or both. and
they favoraby recommended loans
that were hazardous and which no con-
scientous board would accept. If all
the conditions We're known. OF course
associations managed after this fash
ion came to grief, but building and
loan associations managed as our local
associations are and combining them
selves absolutely to the communities in
which they are founded, cannot fail, |
and they are doing a work second in |
to that of no other agency, |
and are worthy of all confidence and
