THE MORTGAGE IS DUE

This notice comes to the
man who borrows money
on a straight mortgage due
in five or ten years, and
he is seldom ready to meet
it. When the mortgage
is given the payment Of
same at maturity looks an
easy matter but it is no
easier then than now, and
the mortgage Is renewed
from time to time.
The man who borrows
the money from this Asso-
citation pays the interest
and the PRINCIPAL back
in small monthly install
ments no larger than the
usual charge for rent.
There is no dreaded day
when the mortgage falls
due, for each month sees
ii reduced until cancelled.
No trouble to explain our
plan.

Oh Monday morning last Mr.. Leon
J. Landry and his wife and child HAD
very narrow escape from being Sc
riously injured while driving to this Ctr
in Mr.. Landry's glass eneassed buggy.
1t seems when they reached point
just above the limits of the City some
railroad laborers dropped heavy piece
OF rail across the track which scared
their horse and caused the buggy to
topple over, precipitating Mr.. Landry
and his little daughter against the glass
door, both of whom were cut by the
broken glass and all had a narrow es-
cape with their lives. Mr.. Landry's face
was cut in several places, while his
daughter was cut on the leg, his wife re-
ceiving an ugly bruise on her head. This
is the fourth accident to our knowledge
caused from these dangerous vehicles

TOXIC HOPES FOR BASIS
OF SETTLEMENT WITH U. S.

Toxic, Japan, Jan. 29.-Hopes are
expressed in official circles here to-
day that a basis of understanding on
the California alien land ownership
question will be found soon by the
United States and Japanese govern
ments. The chief concern here at
present seems to be in regard to flu
ture legislation in America and 1t is
said any additional enactments un-
favorable to the Japanese would be
considered as a serious menace to the
traditional friendship of the two
countries.
The government at Washington has
endeavored to assure Japan that the
state of California would cease the
enactment of laws held by Japan TO
be discriminatory. This is admitted
here, but it is pointed out that owing
to the political distinctions between
the Federal and state governments
there might be some difficulty in OBJ
tanning convincing assurances for the
future.

Norway Man for
Income Tax Collector

Portland, Me-, Jan. 29-Merton o. KIM
ball of Norway will be appointed the in
come tax collector for the State Of Maine,
1t is said, having been recommended for
the place by Representative Daniel j..
,McGillicuddy of Lewiston. Mr. kimball
was a candidate for appointment as ap-
praiser of the port of Portland and Mr..
McCsillicuddy was his hacker at that
time but the place came to Portland and
Seth F. Clark was appointed. The posi-
ton which Mr.. Kimball will have. pays
almost the equal of the custom house
berth.
There has been no additional light
thrown on the district attorney situation
and an appointment by President Wilson
has been expected for the past two
months of a successor to Robert I.
Whitehouse Stephen C. Perry of this
city has an abundance of endorsements
and Phil Howard, county attorney OF
Knox. has undertaken to win the place,
having the backing of Mr.. McGillicuddy,
who thinks that Portland should not
have the plum.
Mr.. Whitehouse was appointed more
than four years ago but he holds over
until his successor is appointed, confirm
ed and qualified. A solution of this tan
gle Is expected toon and will settle In
measure the location of the next district
marshal, as it has not been the custom
for both men to come from the same
town or city q oopnty.
