A lthough not an in s­ urance m an, Mr. A rn d t shows a keen u n d erstan d in g of the need of ad eq u ate insurance H ere is his advice to the re a d ­ ers of this colum n.

Mo one know s now it h a p ­ pened, b u t w nile they w ere aw ay th eir house cau g h t fire a n a was p ractically destroyed. They had lire in surance—ev ­ erybody has fire insurance. Tne bank h ad ta k e n care of th a t w hen tn ey borrow ed th e m oney to buy m e house. B ut th eir shock cam e w hen tney looked a t the policy. T here it ap p eared in black and w hite —$a,UU0 of insurance! A nd th a t was w h at the in surance com ­ p an y p aid them . They h ad th eir lot and the $5,0UU, b u t the $18,500 t h e y w ere to get for th e p ro p e rty had vanished— b u rn t up by the flam es th a t destro y ed t h e i r home. True, th e ir l o t w a s w orth $3,500 an d had only cost $l,/5U, but they w ere still out thousands ol dollars on the house. W hen th ey p riced fu r­ n itu re they found th a t th eir fu rn itu re in su ran ce was also grossly in ad eq u ate. A n e x tra $10,000 in surance on house and fu rn itu re w ould h av e cost th em $75 for th ree years.

T here are v ery few people who h av e n ’t M ost of th em are ju st like Bill and Sue— they ju st h av e n ’t th o u g h t ab o u t it. H ave you? M aybe it w ould be a good idea or you to check up on y o u r insurance. Is y o u r hom e ad eq u ately in su red on to d ay ’s values? Could you re fu rn ish y o u r hom e on th e p r o c e e d s you w ould receive from th e in surance m oney on y o u r fu r­ n itu re, if it w ere destro y ed by fire? Could you reb u ild or buy an o th er hom e w ith th e a- m ount of in su ran ce you are now ca rry in g on y o u r hom e? It won t cost you an y th in g to check up and you m ight be su rp rised at the result. Bill & Sue a re n ’t th eir real nam es, but th eir exp erien ce m ight be of v alu e to you. You can re ­ cover ag ain st som eone else if his negligence causes you d a ­ m age— b u t you canH v ery w ell sue yourself! So d o n 't be n eg ­ ligent in so far as insurance is concerned.
