At Marengo Federal Savings, we have an investment plan that not only guarantees a return, but guarantees to double your money in only 9 years with insured safety! How do we do it? In fact it's done through interest compounded daily. From the first day you invest your money ($1,000 minimum bal­ ance) in one of our 73/4% certificate accounts, your money starts earning you more money. And each day it will continue to grow even faster because you earn interest on both the original investment and the interest that has accumulated in your account. So if you decide to leave your original investment untouched for a period of 9 years, it will actually double. Here's an example of how quickly $10,000 will grow when interest is left to compound: Annual , Original At end of Rate Investment nine years 73/4% ^ $10,000 $20,281.20 Certificates withdrawn prior to maturity earn at regular passbook rate less 90 days interest. In addition your investment is guaran­ teed safe up to $40,000 by the FSLIC, a per­ manent agency of the federal government. So if you are thinking about investing your hard earned money, stop into any of our three con­ venient offices and talk it over with us first. We'll show you why it pays to save at McHenry county's o ldest , largest and strongest savings and loan. mi's MARENGO FEDERAL SAVINGS and loan association £r mm mnm HI MARENGO: 200 E.
