It Is Easy Enuogh to
Make Money!
But the trouble with a great majority of the
people is to save it after they have made it. No
person should live beyond their income; they should
not even live up to it. Whoever spends all they
make will fill a pauper's grave. No better way
has ever been devised whereby a person can save
money than through the building and loan plan.
You not only save money but you make it, as every
dollar you put in begins to earn you something at
once.
If you are paying rent, stop doing so by buy
ing building and loan stock and become
your own landlord. Hundreds of Gaffney people
can testify how easily this is done. You live in
your house while you are paying for it with the
rent money you would be paying the landlord.
The Farmers and Mechanics Building and Loan
will start you on the road to ownership. We loan
to the man who wants to buy either city or country
property. Call at the office and see our Mr. Gibbs
Pridmore, who will explain the plan in detail, or
write him for information. Business transacted
