George F. Zimmerman, State Manager of the Modem National Re serve Insurance Company, is working Forest Grove in the interest of the order. The Modem National Reserve is a Fraternal Beneficiary order provid ing a paid up policy on a stipulated premium plan. It also provides good accident and disability benefits and an old age pension. It maintains a res rve fund sufficient to insure its guarantee. In fact you pay for what you get and no more. The M. N. R. does not pass the hat. The history of the M. N. R. has been splendid. Its record for the first year in writing insurance eclipses all past records “ Old Line” or fraternal. The reason is the M. N. R. is the business man’s plan providing best benefits at least cost consistent with safety. A good inter est is being awakened for the M. N. R. in Forest Grove. Mr. Zimmerman expects to organize with forty charter members. The charter rate is low, $3.00 pays all the cost of joining and entitles charter members to a banquet at the Laughlin Hotel.
