, IF you want to save for something
a year or two away, and can't expect
to complete a saving program of
eight or ten years with reasonable
confidence, a savings account at
your bank will probably prove ideal
: lor your purpose.
But if you have in mind the ac
cumulation of one thousand or two
or five with regular payments for
a hundred months or more, then the
La Grande Building & Loan offers
a perfect and extremely attractive
investment. It pays 6 interest
compounded semi-annually guar
anteed. If your plan should be interrupted
if you should cease payments and
wish to withdraw your money at any
time, however, you get every dollar
you paid in and every dollar of earn
ed interest. Nothing is deducted in
this association for membership
fees, etc. yill you let us discuss
your saving plan with you in detail?
