Money to Loan!

CERTAINTY OF CoNrRAcT.-The
loan plan here offered by The Fir
deity is that of paying off loan
by easy monthly payments The
contract is definite and certain By
its terms it cannot run BEYOND the
time fixed, but stock participates in
earning and may mature sooner. IT
is NOT a loan upon the building
loan plan as usually presented by
associations. 1t differs from such
a plan, in that
No fines are charged the borrower.
The maximum number of payments re-
qured to pay off is stipulated IN the note.
The sum required to pay off and cancel a
loan, or any part of it, is stipulated in the
note for each period.
Certainty and monthly payment plan
is an advantage to the borrower. Q) The
debt can be paid off before maturity with
out penalty. (2) The borrower by easy pay
ments gets out of debt. Straight loans for
term of years are too often renewed.
Three terms or payment are offered. 1t
takes a small monthly payment longer to
cancel debt than it does larger one.
