A BOND ASSURES
A PATRIOTIC
FEELING
Sk&gway lias responded well to
the uurchase of the Third Liberty
Loan, but she hag not yet earned,
for herself an honor flag.
Several bonds of fair denomin
ation and a number of the small*
er ones have been bought, but when
the Government expected to -receive
'he bulk of the loan asked from
tlie people was from the sale of the
$50 and $100 denominations.
To provide against all contingen
cies, arrangement was made to
permit the purchase of a bond on
the installment, or partial pay
ment olan, and by this means make
it possible for everyone to take at
least one lx>nd.
Assuming that yoou would like *c
: uy just one $50 bond, hut that
you would not receive your sal
ary or remittance, or, let us say
stitM'tid, until the middle of May,
and for that reason you feel that
reason you feel that you cannot sub
scribe for a bond now, and by the
time you do get the money you ex
pect to get in May the date of the
sal a of the bonds will have expired.
Here is how; the partal payment
plan works out:
Co to the bank and make appli
cation for theb bond today, mix
ing a cash deposit of $2.50 which
is a 5 percent payment on the
Fifty Dollar bond. You will be giv
en a temporary receipt. On, May
23, you again go to tlio banK ana
make a 20 percent payment, which
wp b» |10.00 and again you w.ll
b isivpn a receipt covering thHs
oirment. Then on July 18, you
make your third installment amount
iur <o 35 percent which amounts to
$17.5.0; for this you get a re*
ceip*. Then on August 15, you
make the fnal payment of 40 per
cen* which amounts to $20, and you
get a final receipt showing your
bond paid up in full.
The bonds bear interest at the
rate of 4 *4 per cent per annum, and
the interest starts to accumulae on
Miy 9. In taking advantage of
'he .nstallment p'an you will have
interest to pay on deferred pay
ments hut this interest will ap
proximately be offset by the in
terest accruing on your bond, and
you will only be out, as against
♦he person who pays spot cash prac
