THE FREEHOLD In its original and primitive meaning “the freehold’’ was the term used to describe the tenure upon which the favored individual held his land. Ho either obtained it because of his prowess in battle or because ho had earned the favor of “ lord of the manor,” who granted a title that could not be terminated. In its modern application the nominal possession of a title to laud is not “ free ” if, for the right to occupy it, you have to pay interest to another. It is freehold in name only. To enable you to be relieved of interest charges the Pacific Starr-Bowkett Society offers the assistance of a modern organisation. A small fortnightly contribution of Is per share presently entitles you to a loan, free of interest, with which to pay off your indebtedness. The repayment is easy, and extends to fifteen years.
