Your
money
and_.
credit

There are other financial
institutions besides the banks
who lend money. There are

eredit unions, but you must. be
a member and not everybody

Is.
Other lenders include con.
sumer loan companies and sales

finance companies. The former /

offer personal loans like the’
banks, but at somewhat higher
tates. The latter provide point
of purchase finance facilities
at automobile dealers and other
sellers of durables, Again, the
interest rates should be checked
just as any good shopper does:
in making (a ‘wise purchase
anywhere,

Life insurance companies also
lend money — if you have a
life insurance: policy you can

* borrow money on it. But
remember that if you do this,
your life insurance protection
will be reduced» by the
,oulstanding amount of the
loan.

The amount of money which
you can borrow in this way
depends entirely upon the cash
surrender value of the policy
al the time you want the loan.
You can borrow up to that
amount, but no more,

There are no hidden costs
involved when — borrowing
money on youl insurance.
There is simply an interest
charge — ona policy taken out

before Sept. 1, 1968, this

cannot exceed 6 per cent; on a
policy taken out later than
that, on which there wouldn't
be much cash surrender value
yet anyway, the interest
charges would be higher.

All these lenders have diffe-
rent lypes and terms of credit.

Because they are in competi-_

tion with each other the
borrower can ‘shop around.

The best advice we can Bive .

you is to look around for the
best buy —as.you would if you
were making. an_ important
purchase for thie home,

five miles south of Penticton on -

acres of land. It was

Muntjac deer from India, that
reaches only 14 inches in
height; and the giraffe, who has
grown to 15 feet.

Other hooved species
range from the African pygmy
goat and the Japanese Sika to
species found in British Colum-
bia, such as the Stone sheep.

Not ‘all the paddocks are

houses the mountain goats, for

In addition to the hooved
stock, the farm houses a pair of
lions, a pair of tigers, a cougar,
alynx and a cheetah. There are
also bears, poreupines, badg-
era, foxes and snakes on the
farm.

The game farm is open
year-round, but some species
disappear inside in the winter.
These include both the giraffe
and the Muntjac deer; the “
zebras, ostrich and emu also
demand winter housing.

The 120,000 People whe,

would probably feel that the
animals here have freedom in
captivity. The fact that there
are 100 live births‘on the farm
each year would seem to say
that the animals agree.

tors of 150 years ago did not

Yet somewhere along the
line, we lost our sense of
wonder, We no longer rely
upon the sheep for our wool or

parents experienced the transi-
tion from candle to gas lamp to

is hardly an item in our homes

camera and electric stove.

Multiple Incidents Reflects
Use of Aicohol and Driving

A drunken man staggered
intoa Nanaimo street the other
night and was run down by an
impaired driver.

While police were investi-
gating the accident, another
impaired motorist came along
and sideswiped the patrol car.

+ It would be funny. if. it
didn't represent a growing tide
of blood being shed on streets
and highways because of the
deadly combination of alcohol
and driving.

much of his spare time studying

en _ One ofthis latest findings—

‘yrccbased on ‘the chilling statistics

‘of coroners and pathdlogists—is
that a disproportionately high
number of young drivers with
relatively low levels of impair-
ment are being involved in fatal
accidents.

“In many’ of these cases,
even though alcohol was de-
termined to be the main
accident cause, its level in the
blood was actually below the
legal impairment level of .08
per cent,” McCarthy said.
“According to what I've
learned, it's because these
youngsters learned to drive
only recently,“and have not
grown used to the effects of
alcohol.

“When drinking, you tend.

to forget first what you learned
