at all. He says, further, that there
are no charges to be paid in advance,
and hopes that no one who needs a
small temporary loan will hesitate to
take advantage Of the company's offer
because Of any fear that the rates
might be too high. They have been
made SO low that even the poorest
can easily afford to get loan.
The furniture is left with the bor-
rover, and there is absolutely no pub
licity, for the company realizes that
that is just what the public are most
anxious to avoid.
AS for the payments. each borrower
Is permitted to say just when it would
be most convenient to pay. Most of
those who have taken out loans so far
have preferred to pay in small month
ly instalments. Some pay by the week.
but in no case is the borrower COM
PEELED to pay all at once.
1t will be noticed at once how much
better it Is to get loan this way than
by pawning things. With this plan
you have the use of the goods while
you also have the money.
The company intends to make loans
anywhere within twenty-five miles Of
Scranton. All applications should be
made to the Scranton Loan Guarantee
