Local Financial In
StitutiOn Issues
Statement
Progress Is Shown in Increased
Assets and Surplus with
Larger Dividends for
Stockholders

The ninth quarterly statement of
''Iome Builders" has just been issued
and is being filed with the banks, COM
mercial agencies and other financial
institutions. The growth shown by
this statement over that of the pre-
ceding quarter must be very crafty
ing to every Home Builders" stock
holder, and as evidence of the watch
fulness of it's officers is very highest
commendation Of their acumen and
zeal.
From a beginning 27 months ago
with a paid in capital Of only $3.50 this
institution has grown to a vigorous
enterprise with accumulated assets OF
$500, 1926, which includes surplus and
undivided profits Of $155, 5,s59.43.
Truly the Los Angeles spirit of ex-
pansion and growth pervades "Home
Builders" activities. It's building de-
partment is taxed beyond it's capacity,
scores of splendid homes are under
construction, many to be completed
soon. It's large waiting list of home
buyers insures active building opera
tions for many weeks to come.
The great demand upon 1t is being
met by the sale of another allotment
of it's shares which are now worth
$1.S5. The funds so received are going
into immediate earning in building op-
erations, for Home Builders" avoids
speculation by building only such
homes as it first sells.
The General Agency OFFICE which is
located on the ground floor of the
Mason Opera House Bldg, 129 South
Broadway is a very busy place be-
cause of this opportunity of getting
Home Builders" stock at $1.S5. The
response to their offer finding favor
with the investor. After June 1 the
price will be advanced to $780, which
the showing of this last financial
statement justifies.
Beginning with the first of May
"Home Builders" began paying divi-
dends of 16 per cent on par, which is
about per cent on the selling price
of it's shares.

"G0D HELP VERMONT"
Characteristic Letter from Mr.. Hap

Editor OF the Rutland Herald:-A
Mr. Batchelder has given free con-
sent to the adoption of the Australian
form of ballot for the coming State
convention | sincerely trust that you
will urge, and, if necessary. demand,
that the candidate which YOU. in
measure, represent, will. also express
his approval of the proposed mea~
sure, | believe that it would much
inure, not only to the honor and rep
utation of the candidates conserving,
but also to the honor and reputation
of the State at large Besides, with
DR.. Mead's consent it would preclude
any consent in the convention upon
the matter.
Is DR. Mead willing to deliberately
continue to take the position, not only
of refusing to accept the proposition
of filing an account of his expenses.
sworn to or unsworn to, but also, of
withholding consent to the use of
the Australian form of ballot in the
convention, with or without booths
And this. too, in the face of the fact
that the other four candidates APP
prove it?
As to personal support for myself
L is entirely secondary as [ am work
ing for principle. And prefer to
leave it to the good sense of the del
egates at the time of the convention
after they have become fully inform
ed of the situation | should prefer
as supporters, representative citi-
zens perfectly free to act as they
thought best at the time they cast
| their ballots. And the kind of bal
lot that will best encourage that way
of voting is the kind of ballots VIZ
want and you will find that. as a rule
it is the "heelers" and wire pullers'
who will oppose it, because they are
afraid that all of their secret work
and influence under it's operation will
only count against them.
If our State is to be governed by
| influences which deliberately oppose
the publicity of campaign expenses
and the use of form of ballot thai
will give perfect freedom to the vs
ter, then God help the State of Yer

Dashboard of the local hotel while i'm
Apatiently waiting many hours for the
Zone train day running in the direc-
ton he wishes to take.
The elimination of such lost time is,
of course, the most important service
an automobile can perform for the
salesman but there are other excellent
features. The automobile will take
him to small towns not favored with
a railroad. The trouble attending the
transportation of his samples from a
railroad station to the sample room of
a hotel or to the stores themselves is
also a thing of the past II he travels
by automobile instead of by train, to
say nothing of the impression an auto
mobile makes on the storekeeper A
fine example OF a commercial travellers
special automobile is shown in this
illustration. The seat Is we'll protected
