A better way to borrow money LOAN OFFICER JIM GARDNER will be happy to give you all the details on FirstLoan. Thinking about some home remodel ing? A new car? Or maybe taking that vacation you’ve been putting off too long? Then you ought to stop by First National Bank in Nyssa and ask about FirstLoan. FirstLoan is a simple interest con sumer loan. That means you’re only charged interest on the amount you actually owe. Only for as long as you owe it. So you save on interest every time you make an early pay ment. In fact, you can pay the entire loan off ahead of schedule and really save money. On the other hand, if your monthly payment is not made on time, you simply pay a little more interest for holding the money longer...no late charge. And, we keep you up-to- date with detailed monthly statements. So, if you need to borrow money... for home remodeling, a new car, that much deserved vacation, or whatever... stop by the Nyssa branch of First National Bank of Oregon and ask Jim Gardner about FirstLoan. It really is a better way to borrow money. We'd like to get to know you.
