Although these managers make mis takes at times, yet you should be much better off in having Your bold- ings watched in this way. Otherwio. you should employ a personal invest ment advisor. Stocks and bonds can not be put away in a ofe deposit box and forgotten any more than can eggs, fruit or even clothing. Remember what the Bible says about “where NOTICE OF JUDICUL SALE Notice ia hereby given that in ac cordance with the terms and provis ions of the Decree of the Court of Common Pleas for Kershaw County, (Hated September 5, 1944, in the cade of Dess Kennedy, plaintiff, yersus James Johneon, defendant, I will sell to the highest bidder, for cash, be fore the Court House door at Camden, 8. C., during the legal hours ot sale on the first Monday in October, 1944, -being ibe 2nd day thereof, the follow ing described property: moth and rust dothr' compt "and thieves break through and stsaL” . Many bankers and corporaticm offl- cials Uke to .throw mud at the Se curities and - Exchange Commission who at timea are very slow and pro voking, On the other hand, I am certain that they are honest and that their Intentions are ot the best Their difQcolty is that they are “biting oft more ^an they can chew” and are perhaps satfering from a bad case of indlgeetimi. The cure for this is tor them to trust more details- to the Judgment of those needing their ap provals. The Securities and Exchange com mission is certainly doing much for investors in connection with Invest- ment trusts. Some years ago some of the investment trusts did very wicked things. Insiders loaded them up with securities which they knew were no good, and purchued from them for themselves securities which they felt were valuable and would go up in price. Of coarse, this was very wrong but it has all been stopped by the Securities and Eixchange commis sion. Investment trusts are now watched almost as carefully as are State Banks. - In order to get this diversification and management, investors must pay a “loading charge," The sponsors of an investment tnut—or the ‘‘manu- tacturers** so-called—usually take a commission of 1-4 or 1 per cent plus the cost of supervision. They, in torn, .usually allow 2 per cent to the whole* salers plus 5 per cent to the retaUers from whom you buy the investment trust stock. This means that there usually is a loading charge of about 7 1-2 per cent, equivalent to about 175 per flOOO, which is included in the price of the stock. If you will be content to buy the stock and hold it, this loading charge is not unreasonable, but if you—say once a year—switch into some other investment trust then you will be paying this loading charge uncon sciously every year and it finally could eat up all of your investment As soon as a person buys an in vestment trust stock and It goes up In price, or some other stock goes ilown. tbs salesman will com* arouBt and want you to switch In order for him to get another commissiOB. TImre aiw a handred dlfftfant good laveot- ment trusts and these salesmen watch them all with the eye of a hawk. If they find one that yields a trifle more or chows a Uttle more rapM ap preciation, they may advise you to sell what yon have and switch into this other investment trust stock. They fall to tell you that the slight in- cfMse in yield or appreciation may be but temporary. Also that what they switch you into has prcdiably gone up IS much or more than what they want you to sell. "All that piece, parcel or tract of Und,.lying, being and sitnated in the City of Camden.
