RESERVES
Every individual, family, or business organization
shouid have some kind of Reserve to serve as a cushion
to protect against unusual emergencies. The Oxford
Credit Union has provided such a Reserve.
The law Which controls Credit Unions in this State
requires that the officers set aside as a Reserve twenty
per cent of the net earnings before any dividends are
paid. The Association has faithfully complied with
this requirement and this statutory fund now amounts
to over $20,000. Up to this time nothing has been de
ducted from, it. In addition to this required reserve
another $20,000 has been set aside. All of this increases
the safety of the Association. These two funds stand
between the shareholders and any possible loss.
It is recommended that all members of this As
sociation establish such a fund as a primary safeguard
against emergency misfortunes. If this reserve does
not have to be used until old age, it will come in as a
great help at that time.
