Yet, it's being done! The bill for fire hazards and losses is too often footed by the con scientious building owner in high fire insurance costs. The great success of the GENERAL OF AMERICA lies -in correcting this condition. GENERAL insurance can be had for good risks oiity. Bad risks simply cannot get GENERAL insurance! Hence losses arc reduced, savings increased, and holders of GENERAL'S participating policies have ' the advantage of dividends that have never been less than 20. "' v If you own a good risk one that will pass the GENERAL'S requirements you arc entitled to these remarkable participating policies backed by full stock company indemnity. GENERAL'S capital is $ l,000,000;policyholders' surplus of $2,000,000, and total resources of more than $5,000,000.
