SEAMAN I Jtiow little is known about the local savings and loan association by the aver- age person ! This is true des- pite the fact that so many millions of your dollars are invested in savings accounts. Few other financial insti- tutions in private industry can match its long history of fostering home ownership. Did you know , for example , that Suffolk County Federal Savings & Loan Association makes only one major type of loan. Yes . SCFS specializes in mortgage loans for building or buying new and older homes in good condition. So your local savings and loan institution contributes to the orderly and sensible growth of your community. This helps protect and enhance the value of your home. When you next add to your \ nest egg \ savings account at SCFS (where savings earn 4 per cent* , highest rate on Long Island , ) remember! It ' s your very own money that you make available to your friends for home ownership in Suffolk County, \the won- derful p lace to live. \ Suffolk County Federal Savings L Loan Association , Bab ylon , mai n office , MOhawk 0d200 ; Smithtown , ANdrevv 5-22G0 ; Centereach , JUniper 8-9200.
