LYONS PLUMBING very often a man’s life in surance needs change consider ably as the years go by, because of changes in his family situa tion. For that reason a life in surance program that might have been entirely satisfactory ten years ago. or even five years ago. may not be satisfactory to day. It should be brought up to date. " hen did you last check up on your life insurance policies? Are there any changes you want to ma^e with respect to your ben eficiaries—the distribution of funds—the method of payment? Remember, life insurance can serve your family best if care fully planned in accordance with their own particular needs. And those needs frequently change. It’s a good thing for every life insurance owner to go over his policies at regular in tervals. That is the way to make sure your insurance will really do the job you want it to do. I should be glad to be of ser vice to you in this connection. NEW CHEVROLET Task-Force TRUCKS — with a whole truckload of new advantage» for you'.
