Girls And Debts Help For Education Soars In Texas
A Belton banker said he never refused a loan to a girl seeking education and every loan was paid. A Honey Grove merchant recently extended credit to working students, with prompt repayments. Over four years the writer assisted three girls with about $400 each, all repaid in the first year after they left school and found work. The record shows girls meet obligations and should ease future assistance for worthwhile life plans. Honey Grove Signal.
