his line in the river when the big

his knees and after ten mintiles of

On Which Side Is
Goo'd Fire Insurance Risks Need
No Longer Pay For The Bad!
You can't expect the owner. of a well-groomed
building to bear the burden of another's carelessly
kept property. Yet, it's, being done! The bill for fire
hazards and losses is too often footed by the con
scientious building owner in high fire insurance
cos.ts. The great success of the GENERAL OF
AMERICA lies in correcting this condition.
GENERAL insurance can be had for good risks only.
Bad risks simply cannot get GENERAL insurance!
Hence losses are reduced, savings increased, and
holders of GENERAL'S participating policies have
the advantage of dividends that have never been
less than 20.
