Use Your Bonds To Borrow Wh en You Need Money It’s Better Business To Repay A B of M Loan Than To Spend .Savings Like most other people, you may, sooner or later, want cash in a hurry. Whether your reason be opportunity or emergency, a wonderful bargain or a sudden illness, you will show your met­ tle by thinking twice if it means touching your bonds. You can easily cash good bonds. But when the pinch has passed, your bonds will be gone too. That’s when many people recall the sacrifices it took to buy their bonds, and they just say they can’t replace them “for the time being”. The next crisis may find them really short of funds. You can raise the money you need without spending, the sav­ ings your .bonds represent. At the Bank of Montreal you can borrow against your bonds, and keep your investment intact. And you can repay the .loan out of income, in easy instalments. The cost of the loan is amaz­ ingly little . , . .in fact, the interest on your bonds practical­ ly pays for it. If you need money for a good purpose, drop in and see Jim Hendry, B of M manager at Exeter or his accountant, Duke Hall. (advt.)
