SEARCH LASTS 12 YEARS
If you ever buy
a mortgage, the
first thing you'll
do is to consider
carefully the underlying
security; then you'll take
into account the names on
the pajer the moral se
curity; .sometimes the man
is more important than the
property involved.
In the course of your
life you probably invest in
clothes enough money to
buy a good big mortgage.
Do you know anything
about the underlying se
curity in the clothes you
wear? Does the name and
reputation of the maker
mean anything to you ?
Our suits and overcoats
are made to be "gilt

our name into them as a

If you knew how much
