BOR ROWING
$40 TO $500
For Emergencies

My Own Views on the Subject
If I needed $40 to $500 in an
emergency, |
would NOT want to borrow it
from a friend or employer.
would NOT want to borrow it
from a relative.
would NOT want to ask any one
to indorse for me.
would NOT want to be under
obligations to any one.
l WOULD want to borrow from
some one who made a business
of lending money.
l WOULD be willing to pay a rea-
sonable amount for the use Of
the money / borrowed.
| would NOT go to the first money
lending concern that l came to.
| WOULD consider ONLY a firm
that was long established in my
community.
The Fidelity Loan Co. licensed by and
bonded 10 the State, and under the super
vision OF the banking department is well
ana tavorably known in this community,
a reliable firm that makes n business OF
lending money at a low, lawful rate and
has genuine desire to be helpful.

time. do not fail to call on US.
