a new business concern of the city, but
during the few months since beginning

ity to hold and occupy place well up
in front among wall paper and
painting establishments. With their
new location they will be in better
shape to render service to their grow
ing list of customers. They will carry
large and comprehensive stock of
wall papers and a complete line of
paints, oils and varnishes, in fact
everything will be found there that is
usually carried by an up-to-date store
Of this character. The New York Paint
Shop is prepared to quote the very
lowest prices on all goods, and it is
their motto that customers are given
complete satisfaction by dealing with
them. They are paper hangers and
painters as we'll, and employ only COM

SUBURBAN BUILDING
& LOAN ASSOCIATION
Organized in 1895, Many Of Origi.
nal Officers Still Directing
It's Affairs-Assets
S2,1O7,742.92.

OF all the building and loan and
homestead associations on the &C
tive list none are more representa-
tive, offer a better policy, or have
contributed on freer plans to the
building and acquiring of homes than
has the Suburban Building & Loan
Association, located in the Maison-
Blanche building. The Suburban
for years has been tower of
strength, and each succeeding state
ment sees it's assets ever mounting
upward. 1t is but natural that this
statement of affairs is gratifying to
the officers and directors of the as
ISOLATION, and likewise is pleasing
to the many friends Of the associa-
ton.
The Suburban Building and Loan
Association was organized on Deem
Der 9Th, 1894, and was ready for
business January list, 1895. The
first President was r. J. Goebel, who
served until December, 1901. John
N. Proven succeeded Mr.. Goebel in
December, 1901, and has served con-
tinuously since that date. The first
secretary was John M. Lind, who
served in that capacity fer seven
months, and was then succeeded on
August LIST. 1895, by o. M. Lind,
who is the present secretary, having
served continuously since that date.
OF the original board of directors
seven are still in service, as follows:
John N. Proven, Henry r. Pedarre,
Joseph Odenwald, John E. Stumpf,
Harry l.. LOOMS, Jr., Albin c.
Stumpf and o. M. Lind.
The Suburban Building e Loan AS
ISOLATION has always followed a very
conservative policy in the admins
tration of its affairs, and now after
a career of more than a quarter Of
century, it is privileged to point
with pride to the record made, that
it has never lost a dollar of its share
holders funds, and has always de-
clared dividends of not less than
SIX per CcuI vi itS StOCh. ioudy

As a protection to its stockholders

to size.
There is no better advice to the

For More Than Twelve Years John

Now is the time when the plumber

with all the new and handsome homes

civic pride and home comfort. 1t is
needless to say that it is always ad,

THIRD DISTRICT HAS
MODEL plan
Association Organized in 1887, Has
Ever Progressed, and Assets
Total 81, 347 ,8OS.93.

The Third District Building Asso-
citation, a Savings and Home-buying
Institution, was organized and in
corporated in April, 1887, thirty-four
years ago. Our card, published in
another column Of this issue, gives
the names of the Officers and Direc-
tors. 1t would, perhaps. be impos'
sible to select a board better fitted
for the duty of managing home
stead than one made of men of this
calibre.
According to the last published
official statement of this Association,
October 81, 1920, the following
figures show its status:
There are 2,962 books of 29,392
shares stock in force; SIS loans
bearing interest, amounting to
s1,1S1,OSO.O0: contingent loss and
reserve funds to assure the stability
of the earnings. s27,65s.94. Assets

s5,OO0,OO0.O0. Subscribed capital
$3,244,21O.OO. Paid-in capital, ST.

fected, 1861 loans for s3,041,600.O0
Paid Withdrawals, matured stock and
dividends totaling s2y436.140,00.
The management of this Associ
alton has shown its progressiveness
by framing a plan whereby the home
buyer is enabled to attain absolute
Ownership in a much briefer period
than under other methods, hence al
greater saving of interest and re
duced cost. This Is accomplished BY
applying all stock paym nts to the
cancellation of the shares as soon al
the par value of $4,000 is recorded
on the pass-book, when the interes'
ceases on that amount. BY thi!
method the borrower feels encour
aged to advance the payments ant
reduce the loan as fast as possible
until it is entirely extinguished. Thi
bright prospect has led many to ven
ture and acquire homes who woult
not otherwise have made the attempt
i As a safe and sane proposition it
plan is unsurpassed, being though
out to advance the common interest
of the investing and the borrowing
members, which Is the true object o
