McLAY, Manager ,loan loves travel YOU probably have some special interest, too—something you'd love to have or do "some day". But, we all know a budget will only stretch so far. Today, more than ever, the secret is to plan ahead, save ahead. Here are two practical suggestions: FIRST, decide what you want most, how much it will cost, and open a special savings account at The Royal Bank of Canada for that one particular purpose. Then save for it. SECOND, use the Royal Bank Budget Book to keep yourself on your course, and toavoid careless spending. The budget book does not suggest how you should spend your money. It does provide you with a simple pattern to help you PLAN YOUR BUDGET TO SUIT YOURSELF. You can get a copy, at any branch. Ask for one. BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL DIRECTORY ACCOUNTANCY ROY N.
