It wouldn‘t cost much to modâ€" ernize and subâ€"divide them to make comfortable homes for four families He talked it over with his bank manager, who extended him a $600 loan. With the money, Hunter not only converted his cottages but took part of the loan, along with some of his rental income, to remodel another house to accommodate eight single individuals. With the aid of the bank Hunter helped to proâ€" vide urgently needed homes for war workers. He has now paid off all but $100 of the loan. A very small amount paid out for interest has thus enabled him to more than double his former revenues. Such modest, highly useful loans typify the conâ€" tributions that the banks make to Canadian enterâ€" prise.
