EIGHT SERVICES OF EQUITABLE

Would you like to accumulate money for security or spending? Or would you like to borrow money to build, buy, or modernize your home? Equitable has a savings or borrowing service tailored to your needs. Each of the eight basic services has limit- less variations. Your dealings with Equitable will be designed just for you.

SAVINGS SERVICES

1. Systematic Savings: Regular monthly savings, plus good earnings and bonuses, help you accumulate the money you want.

2. Open Savings: In-and-out savings give the con- venience of available money plus the safety of a firm founded in 1890 and never closed on a busi- ness day since!

3. Systematic Savings with APO, Automatic PayOff: The remarkable extra, APO, provides that your family will receive all the money you planned to save, even if you do not live to complete the plan.

4. Cache Fund: Lump sums make good earnings and money is always safe: Equitable has always paid every saver every cent of principal and earnings when due!

5. Payroll Deduction Savings: For sure savings, sug- gest to your employer that Equitable savings be deducted from each month's paycheck; or if you are an employer, follow this way to build morale and loyalty.

6. Retirement Programs: An Equitable savings pro- gram now brings you income at retirement-either in monthly payments or in a lump sum-to supple- ment pension plans.

BORROWING SERVICE

7. Disappearing Home Loan: Equitable pioneered in offering this monthly reduction home loan; see Equitable first for a loan to buy, build, or remodel.

8. Disappearing Home Loan with APO, Automatic PayOff: If you are taken from your family, APO pays off the mortgage . . . this protection doesn't add a cent to your monthly loan payment!
