Cost of Share.


If no profits were added to the
shares, 1t would require 200 months.
or 16 2-S years to pay up a share.
but the profits reduce the time to II
or II years. A shareholder cannot
withdraw his shares without giving
the bank a months notice. Under
such conditions the bank is never
threatened with a run on II. The
shares are transferable and are sub.
lect to the same taxes that savings
bank deposits are, the taxes being
paid by the bank. The bank can with.
draw shares whenever II sees nj.
This proviso eliminates any POSSIBLE.
ity OF acquiring more money than the
bank needs. New shares are issued
every three or six months to take the
place OF the series that mature every
three or six months.
The idea of Christmas clubs sprung
from cooperative banks, but they do
not pay as high rate of interest as
the cooperative bank does. In many
ways the cooperative method OF say.
ing is the best offered by any bank.
II does something that the saving
bank does not--requires the share
holder to deposit stated amount
each month. That the cooperative
bank is growing more popular each
year is shown by the following table
that gives the number of banks do
Ing business since 1879 and the
growth in the loans On real estate
and in the total assets and liabilities:

A C0zy Place to Rest
PLATFORM OUTLINED
Attorney A. L. Kinney Outlines Plat form for the City Government
 Without Fear or Favor.

In an interview with Attorney A. L. Kinney, who was nominated for mayor at the mass meeting Monday night, he outlined the platform on which he will make his race and with emphasis re- marked that if "you don't want it, don't vote for me-" He said:
 "First-I favor reasonable occupa- tion tax and the members of the coun- ci, nominated Monday night are pledg- ed to this
 "Second-If elected, the laws will be enforced without fear or favor Punch Boards" and other forms of gambling will not be tolerated.
 "Third-The trees in the park will be properly trimmed; the turn stiles, for the purchase of which. generous dra- matic club of our town, donated $80 % in cash, will be kept in place and not allowed to be kicked around the park like so much junk.
 Fourth Gas Pipe railing around the town pump or well will be repaired.
 "Fifth-I shall insist, if elected, upon the reduction of the fees of the Treas urer from 5 per cent to not exceed per cent upon the amount of money handled by him.
 "Sixth-In the past we have been bothered more or less in getting a Street Commissioner that would work in harmony with tho Council; before ap- pointment or election they were free with pledges and promises, but after the office was secured they frequently | ignored their promises and the requests of the Council; last Monday night at the mass meeting at my suggestion no nomination was made for this office and this will be filled by appointment; 1 will oppose the appointment of any man unless he will place his undated resignation in our hands at the time he takes the office; then when he fails to make good, we will date his resign l ation and act upon it without delay; shall also insist upon joining the offices of Marshal and Street Commissioner.
 "Seventh-If elected, 1 WILL BE MAYOR for the next year, and while Appreciate suggestions, which are al 1 ways helpful. still I will not be domi- hated by any one; the day laborer will look as good to me as the man who loans his money at 10 per cent; each will be governed by the same laws, and in the event of Justice being tempered with mercy it will be in favor of the poor.
 "Eight-We will have a general clean up day, and all will be expect ed to observe it; after that expect the town to be kept in condition where general clean ups will not be required.
 "Ninth-I shall, at all times, favo I anything that may be for the advance ment and benefit of Green Forest; am in favor of the building of more con- crete walks, and would favor an ordi- nance compelling property owners te build the same, under certain conditi. ons. Progress and advancement vii be the watchword of the administra- tion, and any one opposed to this plat form will do well to vote against me for, if elected, l will certainly carry il out ''
