The loan plan offered by The Fidelity Is
that of paying off loan by easy monthly

No fines are charged the borrower,
No commission charged the borrower.
The maximum number of payments re-

The sum required to pay off and cancel a
loan, or any part of it, is stipulated in the

Certainty and monthly payment plan is
an advantage to the borrower. The debt

enter the state. The old farmers
watch every train that passes
through their sections for help.
They assemble in squads at the depot
each morning and evening. and when
the trains stop they dash through
them looking for people who want TO
work. II Is great scramble. at near
" every station in the wheat belt,

rnsh reminds one OF football game
between two co'heee teams. Out in
Pratt county every train Is stopped
by the farmers and searched FOR h-
borers. II a man IL on the bumpers

In order To DE sure that the imported
harvest hands do not leave under
cover Of darkness the old hirrrer
puts his regular hired man ON guard
with Winchester. The wurh OF saw

with the farmers and they are MOI
