BUILD UP A HOME INSTITUTION
By Patronizing the Mesa County Build.
ing & Loan Association-There Is
Difference in Good Things.

Do not be deceived by advertisements
and statements made by agents repres-
enting foreign Building and Loan asso-
Citations. The Mesa County Building u
Loan association does not charge as
much on given amount borrowed as
outside associations charge, and it also
pays larger dividend on account OF less
expensive management.
Experience has demonstrated to
number of our best citizens (whose names
we have) that the liberal promises made
by travelling agents, who talk for the
dollars there are in it, are not carried
out This they have found out to their
sorrow.
The Mesa County Building & Loan
association will show to any of it's men,
bers or to those contemplating making
loans that it has been, and is doing bet
| ter for its members than the printed
statements of outside associations show
that they can do.
For example we herewith submit
comparative statement between the FL
deity Savings association of Denver,
Colo, and the Mesa County Building &
Loan association of Grand Junction,
Colo taking a loan of $1,000 on Certlfi-
cate No. 284 in the Mesa County Build

| 1897 which shows a difference in favor Of

citation according to the printed state
ment of the Fidelity Savings association
entitled Information for Borrowers

for period of 1913 (the time required to

according to their statement) Of S252.76

Figuring on this basis the same loan
IN the Fidelity Savings association for a
turing loan according to their statement)
would cost the borrower $252.76 more
than in the Mesa County Building &
Loan Assn. for the same period.
All other loans in our Association will
compare as favorably with the Fidelity
as the above named loan.
The total amount charged by the
Mesa County B. & l.. Assn. per $1,000
per month is 500 while that of the
Fidelity Savings Assn. is $15 90.
The Mesa County B. Il L. Assn. has
always permitted it's borrowers to pay
all or portion of their loans at any
| time.
In the face OF the above facts it is GER
tainly to the interests of all who desire
loans to secure them from the Mesa
| County B. g. l.. Assn, thereby saving
money for themselves and building up
their home community and home insti-
tutions by keeping interest money at

Rcclaiming Lost Lumber.

Twenty years ago there was an ex-
tensive numbering business done in
Pine township, Ionia county, and the
slabs which were sawed from the logs
were dumped into Pine lake as the
easiest way to get rid of them. At that
time they were not considered of any
value, but with the present prices of
lumber they would be valuable. Con-
sequently company has been formed,
a mill will be again located on the
banks of the lake and the slabs, OF
which there are millions of feet in huge
piles on the lake bottom, will be fished
out and converted into lath. the price
of which has lately scared skywartl
and promises to stay there.

PugiIistic AIIigatOrs.

Trained alligators are an innovation.
The professional trainers have gotten
as far as seals which play musical in
struments, but there is no record that
the gray matter which reposes beneath
the skull of an alligator had ever re-
sponded sufficiently to the inspiration
of human efforts to show any intelli-
gence until DIR. Howard Pursell, Of
Bristol, tried it. DIR. Pursell has just re-
turned from a trip to Florida, and
brought with him three or four baby
alligators. He has worked untiringly
with them until he has taught them
a number of tricks, which seem almost
impossible, when one considers the ap-
parent lack of intelligence on the part
of the subjects. In his Mill street house
he has large bulk window, and here
the alligators are displayed. They
have been taught to do fiip-faps and
turn somersaults and put on tiny box
ing gloves for a fistic encounter. One
is named Sharkey and the other JEFF
fries, and their passages at arms are
eagerly watched by scores of Bristol
people, who have never seen real prize
tight. Philadslphia Record.
