Sub ject to inexperienced handling, it may soon disappear. , When you die, the insurance estate you have built up for the protection of your family will presumably be paid them in cash. Suddenly, probably for the. first time in their lives, they . are faced with the problem of investing a large sum of money to provide an income on which their sustenance depends. Innocent of the many hazards of investment, they are easy prey for a multitude of questionable propositions and their heritage may soon shrink to little or noth ing. Insure your family against this tremendous risk by means of the Insurance Trust. We urge you to coma in and let our trust officers explain to you the Importance of such a trust to the future welfare of your family. United States TODAY and Sunday i COME ALONG FOLKS!
