Associations. Mr. Wittowsky. of Charlotte, N. delivered an interesting and instruct too.tiirA at the Star Theatre on Frii evening. Mr. Wittowsky'ssubject v the Building and Loan Aesociotion which be is an earnest advocate. 1 text of bis lecture was as follows: Ladiesand Gentlemen: I am pleaned to see the ladies i here tonight I regret t ere are not m ofyou present. Yours is by the decre< the Creator, the province of maki borne a heaven. We read in the t?aci 8cripture, that when the Creator h made man, be found it not good man to be alone he gave woman man. On you depends whether t coming generation shall have int twined within their very heart-strin that place which above all others thte earth shall be to them the dear . spot on earth, where whether in ci dish glee, or young manhood's act prime, or old age's reminiscent uio< we look back back at our happy chi hood days, when tired from play or tie aches and pains we nestled in ( mother's lap and in loving arms f 4 - 11 1- LI! | geirui.oi aii, 'en iu uusbiui muw sleep. Yours is the province to e bellish that borne, to plant a vine be a sbrub and flower there, iD the bap consciousness that this is your 01 home, where the wife aDd the Jit ones listen for'the familiar and ev welcome step of the bread wiuDer the bouse, and where in the lovi companionship the household is ne led in the security of tbeir cawtle, ho ever humble, none dare to molect enter without being bidden to do. That we may gain a clearer und standing of what position the buildi and loan association system has s tained in the industrial and econon affairs of the world, perhaps it m not be amiss to briefly and rapi( sketch, in outline, the origin ana h toryofsuch organizations. My friends, it is not easy to fix \ on a date when and where these i cities originated. Some writers ass< that they existed in a crude form as I back as the Ureeks, aunng meir x publican form of government. Laf they were *aid to be among the Ang Saxons in Great Britain. But the e; Jiest authentic imformation we have that a society for the purchasing dwellings was formed in Birmingbai Eng., Jn 1781. So beneficial were iht ana in such popular favor did ih grow, that England has today perba no less than 50,000 such institutioc with a capital in subscribed shares probaly two billion dollars, and membership of two million stockho ers. In this country Pennsylvania w the original home of the building a loan association. The' tirst one w organized in 1831 at what is now suburb of Philadelphia, called Fran fort, and today over 100,COO homes Philadelphia and its environs ntaud the credit of the great home buildi idea. In suoh favor have building and lo Cl A _ . associatiois grown in* many oia.< where their bene fits have been demo Btrated, that special favorable leg lation has been enacted, amoDg win is exemption from the burdens of ta ation, even from the operation of ut ry laws. Friends, It will no doubt 8uprl8lngto you to learn that wh these associations recieve their life ai their being from the wage-earni: classes paying weekly the small bu of 25 cents per share, that the coi bined amont of subscribed shares w on the 31st of December, 1902 (t latent official report obtainable), t . colossal sum of $600,000,000. Frc a money standpoint these institutic are second only in importance to t combined paid-in capital of all the i tionai banks in the United Stat which at that date was $750,000,000, t only $150,000 more. Of the several 8tates standing hij eetin rank of number of associatio subsclbed shares and amount percapi we find No. Shares Pe Asa'ns buoscriDea uapi New Jersey 361 51 mil. $2 Ohio 731 110 mil. 2 Penn. 1196 123 mil. 1 New York 300 44 mil. What building and loan as8ociati< have accomplished for Charlotte a in some of its lesser details be redi ble to mere figures, but in the lar reckoning of its bearing upon tbe li of a people, individually and collect! ly, tbe account can only be told in clearing house of results, and all me, ladies and gentlemen, before tering upon tbe formidablearray of ures in shbwing tbe results, say t Charlotte and building and loan association c cers claim no concha "alchemistic secret," nor do tl wild the magician's wand in the a ievements 1 shall state, butl desin accentuate the fact that every build and loan association in this or any her town or city can accomplish same results by simply employng same methods, namely; tbe "3 P Push, Pluck and Perseverance," an liberal use of printer's ink. We have in Charlotte subscril shares in force tn date 26,000, of par value of $100 per share, mak $2,600,000. Based on Charlotte's p ularion of 25,000, we have the gr tying and amazing significant fact $100 subscribed for every inbabita as against $1.80 by tbe State at lar 1-?. u? ?:,i ftUU V^uai lutie una paiu iu uu ouoici per cent of the amount paid iu by whole State. There is paid in on said subscript list the enormous sum of $100,000,( which makes It $40 for every inbi lant, white and black, old i young. If, 1? owever, we include Chariot te of L Great Cause. i the Populace for. ogress. ?alks Interestingly and f Great Work of B- and C., [suburbs, and basing it on 35,000 inive habitants, we have paid in on shares lay approximately $28 50, and shares sub pas subscribed $75.50 per capita. of There has been isuued in this city rhe siuce the organization of the three local associations no lees than 65 000 share?, equal in paid-up value to $6,6oui 50,000. c r i | There have been stockholders since )of its organization: ng l White 6,000 red Colored i,200 ad ?>? for Total 7,200 to There are at this time stockholders'. be White.... 2,400 ter- Colored 350 gs, on Total 2,750 est or one out of every nine, and if the lil- suburbs be included, one in every thirive teen of its inhabitants, whereas in the )de twenty States comprising the National Id- League it is one in forty. lit-) The distribution of shares held since )ur| organization of the three assobiations or-'are approximately as follows: jnt Churches and colleges 50 m- city and county employees ; 82 re, Machinists, carpenterp, plumb>py era, etc 1,150 vn Merchants 550 tie Railroad and street employees : 525 er- Barbers 80 01 printers <e ng Bank employees 6 st- Draymen and backmen 15 w- Capitalist 50 or Ariist 48 to Miners 40 Doctors... ? 75 er- Lumber dealers ..., 40 ng Manufacturers 70 us- Married wo^en miners, etc 750 lie Brick masons 65 ay Livery and sales stable keepers., 37 ily Shoemakers. 40 lis- Lodges and benevolent societies 30 Telegraph and telephone employJP* 60 bo- Clerks and commercial travel?rt ere... 900 far Laborers 650 ^ Porters 40 ter Saloon keepers 75 lo Farmers and dairymen 105 &r- Government employees and Unitis ed States army 50 Clergymen... . 90 Lawvers - 50 sy.

We have made 3,600 loans for the purchase or betterment and the buildan iug of new homes, and there are held 0d today 1.050 mortgage?, and the averlU! age loans have been $812. The associate. tions of Charlotte have handled the astounding sum of $6,500,000, and that, still more astounding fact, without the ,u. loss of a cent. be Charlotte now subscribes annually jje to new shares $300,000: in other QCj words, the people of Charlotte have Qg seen the benefits resulting from these institutions, and so inoculated have [jj. they become in the art of Baving that ,a8 through the building and loan associate tion alone, not counting savings bj\nks, he thev save up every year for six years )m four months to come, the sum of $500, ins 000. To show the benefits of the building 3a. and loan, suppose we take man who e8 wants to invest money. He takes one or share: Dues at 25c per week per share 25 ,h. weeks $ 13 00 8 6 years at $53.00 per Bhare . . . 78.00 to.' For which the stockholders receive per ' share 10000 la. Profits $ 22 00 I The average time which the share5 ho der was out of his money is three 1 years. What interest is $22.00 on 8 $78.00 for three years? Answer, 9 1-2 )nB per cent, and as association pays the iay tax, which on solvent credits in this !ci- State, for State, couuty and city is say, Ber 2 per cent, hence.ll 1-3 per cent. ve? A busin- ss man borrws from the *e building and loan $3,000. He will the have to pay per week: ow Dues $ 7.50 eu- luterest 4.60 Bg hat Total $12,10 its jffl. it requires 312 payments to mature a led series, hence 312 times $12 10 gives $3, jey 775.00. A house of that character cb- would rent per month in this commneto nity for, say, $18.00 per month, per ine year$21f).0O, Iu six years this would ot. amount to $1,296.00, making a $3,000 tke house stand him $2,479. the Now the same party borrows from >s an outsider $3,000. He will pay the same amount of interest, $1,440, a total of $4,444. Deduct rent as above and ^ we have $1,296, as against the building tbe and loan $3,144. Deduct $2,476, and insr we ^ave *u ^vor of the building and 0Jf loan association $6oo. atj. Thus far,; ladies and gentlemen, I of have given you cold statistical figures, they are but as tbe egg shell, insidf of which is the lifeciviuar and life-su-) taiuing subst uce; or as the outer crusttjje of tbe earth, (containing within prioeess treasures;because underlying the fig ion t res quoted is the influence they have )0O . tven to man as a social being in the ibi- evelopment of community spirit, in in(l he new direction they have given tc he aspiration of the masses, in the tei8 ennobling, elevating, self-respecting contented, patriotic, and happy citzen ship, "in the making of happy horn owners." Theiraimisto enable men of mod eraie means to acquire; and own thei own homes. It enables men who, b; no other system yet devised can 81 readily, so cheaply, and so surely ac quire their own "homes. Nay, more it leaches, and ;o some extent forcee him to save his bard earnings little b; little, and wbile his fellow workmai toiling by his side from Mouday morn iug until Saturday evening, may, per haps (and it is often, unfortuuately the.case) spends his earnings in gam bling and riotous hilarity, ending bj going to his home, where fellew citi zeus, follow me in imagination, ant see him in his drunken orgy enter hie boval, with tottering steps and bias' phemy on his lips, and see his poor emaciated wife, who knows too wel mat that tottering step, crouching in i corner, and see the poor innocennt lit tie children, who only partly realizi their awful position, in fear and trem bling crouching in auother, and th< money wbicbw a to have bought then J 1 ?* *.w/v.i?5n iloKunnhorv ioou auu rmuieui n^cuuu uvwnuvMM.^ Whereas, thestockbolderon the other hapd, goes with resolute step and proud mien to the secretary's office and there with bauds blackened with soot [a far more honorable covering tbau the gloved baud of the spend thrift] and his tin bucket on his arm "A shield entitled to far more respeci than the coat of arms of idle nobility," see him deposit his honestly earned money on the desk, its metallic rin$ making sweet music to his ears, foi he knows it has nailed another part on what will soon be his home. Enferine where bis wife and little onee meet him, and they like the othei family, may have bad to deprive themselves of some pleasures and luxuries, but he knows that the privations in their case are but temporary; and then see him seated in a corner at his fireside, bis wife by bis side and hie little ones round about his knee, aud see with what happy anticipation they count how near their home ie paid for, and which will soon be theii own. Is there a word In the English language so portentuous, that has so " HrtM rin nnr attentions fexcept uccp a uviu VM wM. it be that of mother] than the * words of "Home, Sweet Home?" Now, my fellow citizens, once again follow me to the secretary's office at the end ol the matured series and see the stockbolder [as I have repeatedly seen him] in the knowledge that his home is all paid for and is all his own, and see him with proud and happy mien carrying the canceled mortgage tohis wife with the, to (hem, ever memorbale sentence; "This is now our own home," and your hearts would swell in unison as mine does swell with pleasure at the sight. But this is not all the good accomplished by these institutions. - - i-' L*? ?? The tire or pairinimuj vums c?c? brightly in the breast of the man with a home, and be iB ever ready to go forth in the defence of hiB home and bis land. As the motto of the. National League of Building and Loan Associations so aptly has it: "In the American home lies the safeguard of American liberty." Home life is 'lie center of all life, and we Mball be strong within and without if we have bappy homes. We shall have peace among ourselves and with the nations if we have happy homes. The purpose of every struggle for liberty an*l constitutional government is found in the aim to finallv e?tablish bappy homes. The Magna Charts, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, all have their value in so far as they secure for us happy homes. The home conserve* the life of organized civil society and if there be found in this great land whether be be a native or foreign born, a man 'With soul so dead, Who never to himself his said; I am proud of my beloved land," then such a one never held shares in building and loan associations. And there will be ample recompence to those officers who conduct in the spirit of enlightened and practical honesty the affairs of this beneficent enterprise without money and without price in the swelling thought that the children of these home-owners? aye and their children's children shall gather under the roof tree and tell how the building and loan association made it possible for their father to establish a home, around which cluster sentiments forever hallowed and sacred* Aye, and when the blood crimsoned names of Alexander and Caesar, the glory-encircled names of kings and queens, statesmen, orators and poets have faded to a blur, that of John Howard Payne will shine in undying splendor in the temple of fame. Hearts of millions in every clime and in every age thrill with delioious love at the sentiments and the melody of his supreme triumph of the world of song: "Home, Sweet Home." And if at some grand review of the world of business activity and beneficence those organizations should unfold their bauners and splendid mottoes to the gazing thousands, what one would be or what one could be more beautiful: what one conld touch the hfiarf. mo ritiir-klv as the banner ol our building and loan association, emblazoned with these magic words," "Mid pleasures and palaces, though we may soam, Be it ever so bumble, there's nt place like home." , Not long pinoe, one of America'! greatest politicians said: "I stood ic the city of Paris by the bronze railing that encloses the sarcophagus ol black Egyptian marble tbat enclose! the ashes of that restless man' Napo lean the First, In imagination I coulc see him at the head of the army o Italy.
