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,

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 the same. Thé paddock that houses the mountain goats, for example, contains a large rocky bluff to make the animals feel at home;: other paddocks contain light forests of Ponderosa pine that provide shade for animals that need it,

species should be with caution,

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,

+ toured the game farm last y 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.

never known any thin; than mild hunger.“ Instead, we enjoy our color TV set, telephone and instant food, forgetting-that our ances- tors of 150 years ago did not

enjoy the convenience of an’

automobile, electric stove, washer,’ toaster, kettle and electric blanket,

Yet somewhere along the line, we lost our sense of wonder, We no longer rely upon the sheep for our wool or worm for our silk, but take the marvel of synthetic fabrics for granted.’ Many of our grand- parents experienced the transi- tion from candle to gas lamp to electricity.

We no longer wonder at

the sewing machine which -

brought women out of the bondage of sewing garments stitch by stitch. In effect, there is hardly an item in our homes and businesses that was around a few hundred years ago—the typewriter, ball point pen, safety razor, plastic bottles, 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.

Joe McCarthy is a Nanai- mo businessman and a former RCMP officer who has spent much of his spare time studying B.C.'s tragic problem: of the impaired motorist. Last year he Re co-author of a report on the

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 More recently, Because driving skills are not deeply imbedded, it takes only's little alcohol for many of these young people to lose the ability to drive safely.”
