A.PURCHASERS'
KEPT INFORMED
Amortization Schedule
Shows Amount of Equity,
Balance Due.

Every one who buys home through
the insured mortgage plan Of the
Federal Housing Administration can
know to . penny, on any given pay
ment date; the amount Of his equity
and what remains to be paid. Thb
Information Is contained in a simple
amortization schedule to which each
home buyer Is entitled.
This chart shows In detail the
monthly payments to be made, with
the exact amounts to be allocated
to service charge, mortgage insur-
ance premium, interest and curtail-
ment Of principal. The home pur.
chaser is thus enabled to have con-
stantly before him 4 clear picture Of
his obligation throughout the entire
period of the mortgage. The amor
tization schedule IS of great value
to the borrower In that 1t eliminates
any possibility Of hidden charges or
other concealed costs which confronted
q home buyer under the outmoded
multiple-mortgage financing practices
IN vogue prior 10 passage OF the ma.
tional housing act.
Aside from the fact that the amor
tization schedule keeps the borrower
completely informed-as no other
method in home financing ever did
before-it serves rs 4 constant re-
minder that in the insured mortgage
system there are no hidden charges.
As each borrower is provided with
his own amortization schedule, there
is no possibility of any misunder-
standing as to the requirements Of the
lien. The schedule constitutes q COM
plete history Of the payments on the
mortgage. 1t might be termed q
photograph in minute detail Of how
the equal monthly installments are
devoted to retiring principal and in
terest and other charges, except taxes
and hazard insurance.
Home buyers are urged by the Fed.
eral Housing Administration to keep
in mind the importance Of the sched-
ule and have it on hand at all times

These lamps are a boon to people
who have had difficulties arranging
their lighting facilities. particularly
when one wants to sleep and the
other feels in the mood to wade
through mystery thriller. 1t is now
merely necessary to adjust the little
spotlight on the book and no light
will bother the sleep enthusiast.
The lights are made in a variety
OF finishes, and all OF them have 4
handy universal joint base which en-
ables the user to cast the beam
around over wide range.
THE ultimate in mechanical and
