The Guarantee Fund Life Association
This is a clay and an age when few
men, be they slnple or married, think
of going through life without carrying
insurance in some amount. It is also a
day and age when insurance is offered
on almost any plan conceivable and it
is not an easy task to figure out just
what line Is the best to carry or Just
what company offers the best for the
money. This latter question is un
doubtedly the most Important one to
consider. Millions of insurance Is now
carried in the old line, stable companies
whose reputations for square dealing
and prompt payment of claims is not
questioned, yet these same companies
have been furnishing their protection
at a cost too great to the policy hold
er; In other words they have been
building up excessive profits for their
stock holders and the policy holder hag
not got returns he was entitled to for
the money invested.
The simple statement of the matter
1b, that the insurance is costing too
much.
If the same protection can be given
in a good sound company at practically
a 50 per cent saving in cost, it would
seem to be business to investigate this
company and if you want insurance,
get one of its policies.
The (iunrttntre Fund Life of Omaha,
Nebraska, has been doing a line of bus
iness in this county tor some weeks
past. It is represented here by Messrs.
Klees & Notson, who during the past
two months have written $86,000,011
worth of insurance that is divided
amongst some 32 different policy hold
ers, all representative men of this sec
tion, and a line of preferred risks.
This company presents a sound, com
mon sense, economical plan of iitnur
anee; It is a well-managed companv
and is growing rapidly. In its home
state, Nebraska, the Company and lis
management is endorsed bv 200 bank
ers, who are policy holders, and the
leading business men patronize it rnd
give The (.uiirnn(c Fund Mfe their
strongest commendation.
This company is well worth investi
gating. Messrs. Klees & Notson are
courteous and considerate in nresent
ing the claims of their company and
will not bore you with a long storv; It
takes but a very short time to uive you
the plan of insurance and their kiridlv
manner in presenting the (.iinri.iK,-,-Fund
Life AttKoclntion is one that we
can heartily recommend.
