We had an increase in installment
shares last year after maturing two
series with a total of 40 shares, re-
turning to our shareholders $4,000 in
cash and cancelled mortgages.
We are in business to help build
Henderson as a home owning COM
munity and are III position to do this
type of financing, giving the pre-
ference to those applications for loans
which are for building homes rather
than tenant houses, or to refinancing
old debts.
Our plan for financing the building
of homes cannot be beat as to cost
or terms. We do not recommend too
long a term loan as this encourages
the borrower to overbuild and assume
too much of a burden as conditions,
expenses and income vary too much
over a Is or IS year period.
Our plan for investment savings
pays the largest rate of interest
known to your secretary, coupled with
absolute safety as evidenced by our
coming through the depression with

way in which the president, finance
