“THE AVERAGE MAN” —says a recent sub-leader of the Wellington Evening Post, has no superannuation fund to fall back upon. He must make his own provision for the future, by saving a few pounds and investing those savings. As a rule, there are not many investments offering to the man with small savings except'.on rare occasions such as that offered today by TARANAKI PERMANENT FORESTS LTD. This company is being formed for the purpose of planting forests in Taranaki, which forests will supply Taranaki's timber requirements, which at present are at least 20,000,000 feet per annum, and adjacent districts —and probably Australian requirements. Furthermore, in a few years, employment will be provided for many men, particularly in the winter time, when other industries are slack. The men who are behind this undertaking are all well-known business men, and .what is particularly interesting these men have put their money down, £IOO each, as the first instalment of their investments in Taranaki Permanent Forests Ltd. Their time and energies are being given freely, and they are receiving neither bonus shares, commissions, discounts, nor making any profits on the land being handed over io the company. The business of life is to provide for your children and vouv own old age. Here is the opportunity. 25/- per quarter for 5 years—equivalent to 2/- per week —buys one £25 share in the Taranaki Permanent Forests Ltd. This share should show profits in 12 years, and at from 15 to 20 years should be worth at least a. sum of £SOO. A booklet entitled “Commercial Co-operative Tree Planting” gives the facts in detail, and every worker with a thought for the future should get a copy NOW. It will be sent free on request to the Chief Agents, Taranaki Permanent Forests Ltd., K. Scott Gandy and Company, Box 010, Wellington. As regards dividends you will be in exactly the same position as any other membc I r of the company, including the Directors.’ —23
