,., Sllverton. Because of the law
passed by the last Oregon legisla
ture, allowing hltrh schools to fur-
'Dish free transportation for pupils

TJnlon Hill and McAlplne schools.
The cost of transDortatlon, rough-
ly estimated Is 140 per pupil for

ting contracts may find It handier
to make this change.

Too Many Men Leave
Money Instead of
Income
CASH Is capital in its most liquid form. 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.
