uccessM Business Our Guarantee of Relial 9?1H?S 99 of Newport News was incorporated January 18, 1906; has just paid its 23rd Semi-Annual Dividend?such dividend 1 at tho rate of seven per centum per annum having been regularly paid, semi-annually, on the first of July and January in every year since organization WITHOUT ?-V8IS8ION. This Association has earned and paid nearly $60,000.00 in dividends to its stockholders; has a contingent fund of over $7,090-00; assets nearly $140,000-00; has made 241 Boans in Newport News aggregating o\er $300,000.00. FINANCIAL INSTITUTION many out-of-town loans, and saved thfeir properties g borrowing stockholders. YOU HONEY if you are able to give gilt-edge first lien Read below our method and plan of loaning money. Note its advantages!! ST S News, which has already taken Tlrti Association loans money only 10 tficntliers; hut as one class oi members joins the. Association for the purpose of saving or Invest in i; money, so others Join for I lie sole purixiso of borrowing money. I ni encli $100 Shan- hohl hy a nlemlior, ho may borrow $100. The Association cannol loan less than $100. Rale of Interest The iah- ni interest ami premium on loans is fixed hy (In- ?y iitiwa at lirteen conti per week on oach $100. This is equivalent to 7 SO-100 per c ut. Each borrower is required to pay at least 30 cents per week on each $100 oi loan made to him. which is -credited as follows: l-'irst. the Interest and premium is taken out, the interest and pre? mium heilig fifteen cents. Then the balance, which in ihh. case would he lifieen cents. Is credited as a payment on the share on which the loan is taken. These payments are continued until llio amount c shares, litgeOmr with the dividends thereon, will oqu loaned. I'm instance, suppose llio loan in lie $100. Tie- payment each week would he. The interest and premium each wiek would be., The credit on the share each week would bo.15 cents. The credit of fifteen cents- per weok begins to draw dividends at once, which are compounded semi-annunlly, and the weekly pay? ments must be continued until (lie weekly credits of fifteen cents and the dividends theron amount to $10u. Members are not held strictly to Weekly payments, although the contract m> requires, but m;i> pay every two weeks, or even monthly, if desirable. Time Required to Pay Up a litcd on the tin- amount HO Ci-lllS IG cents Advantages of This Plan Borrowers The borrowers' Contact merely provide: a minimum weekly pay? ment, whirl) must be made. The borrower may, therefore, pay as much more as lie is nblo, ami whatever extra payment ho may make is credited on the share in addition to the fifteen cents. It draws dividends and Shortens the time in which the loan will be paid up. It is not expected that every boi rower will simply pay the required din s. Bui the minimum payment is made as low as. is consistent with saf.-tv. and the Held is left open for each man to pay off bis loan as. sonn as he can. lie nifty, therefore, pay up bis loan iu live years, or one year, or even in one week, if he wishes. * Kor the same reason he may pay off or cancel his loan at any time whatever. The minimum payment only being fixed, the borrower may al any I Into pay the whole balance din on the loan and have it cancelled at once, tit course, interest only up to the dale of cancellation is charged. Il is always good policy fnr a borrower to pay more than the minimum dues, if he can. in order that in ease of sickness, loss of work, or ntlu r misfortune1, he may be paid ahead and may .suspend payment for a time without being lined or being in danger of losing his properly. The lime required lo liny up a loan will also vary in proportion ! to the interest and tin tho dividends earned by the Association, Supposing the Association is able In earn Hoven per cent, perl annum, dividends, and supposing a borrower pays only the required j dues, his j?hn will bo paid up in nine years and twenty-two WCoks, as follows: VW claim for il tin* following lid vantages: First?The rate of interest and premium, ut 15 cents l?.?r wcqk, only 7 80-100 per cpnt. Second? The reqiiire.fi weekly or, monthly payments a im unit tu only $15.70 per year on each $l()t); so that per? sons who do no! desire to make payments on the principal of.their loan will find very little intjonvenience in making these small payments in addition t<> the interest. Third More than tiie regular payments can I?' made at any Linie. So thai the borrower is left free to pity Iiis loan fast oi* sloWi as lie wishes or is able. We all know the advantage t<> anyone having ;t debt, of being able, whenever he happens l<> get money, to >n> and pay it on his debt, instead of having ((? hoard il until the close of the year or some othor stated period. Ii frequently disap pears in the interval. Fourth?These loans may he paid off at any time without any penalty whatever. This is a great advantage, and the Association can do this only because it will be con? stantly making loans and the money will riot have to lie idle if a loan is paid oil", but will be immediately loaned again. A man may gel aioriey that he does not expect, lie may sell his property and desire to clear it at once of mortgage. Many unforeseen events may happen which make il desirable to pay his b an at once, and the privi? lege of doing ho without being compelled to pay interest to the close of (lie year, or possibly for t-evcr.il years ahead, may become of great value, lb-re is a loan which yon may take nine years and twenty two weeks to pay if you wish, or yon may pay it off at any time. Money paid in on loans earns dividends,compounding semi annually, at the rate of 7 pet cent., so that the more you pay t he. less your loan costs yon, and the sooner is it retdiid. It is better than putting your surplus money iu a sav? ings bank, to pay it in on a loan obtained from this Asso? ciation.
