W. LEWIS DALLAS VERNON W.

They’re in-and-out dollars in the Credit Union. Dollars that members put in their share account and then puU out again, almost right away. Restless dol lars that can’t earn anything for their owners because they don’t stay put long enough. Dollars too temporary to lend to other members who’d like to use them, and pay for the privilege. Dollars that are more of a liability than an asset. Dol lars that cost time and money to keep track of. Dollars that add to the credit union’s expense .and so eat up dividends. A credit union is no place for that shiftless dollar. Put your dollars into the Credit Union and leave them there long enough for them to work for you. —Adapted from TELCO NEWS
