Whangarei Building Society So many people have said, “How do you go about this Building Society business?” It’s easy—call at the office or on any of the directors, and they will in a few words explain all you wish to know. Then you say, I’ll take so many shares, for which you pay 1/per week per share, each 1/- share entitles you to £2OO either by ballot which is free, or you may tender for the money for which you state the amount you are prepared to pay. The first appropriation is balloted for and the next is for sale by tender and so on until everyone is satisfied. Many people in Whangarei owe their comfort and success to the local Building S'ociety. 972
