Happily, despite much undone, a recital of the specific work accomplished along the "lines of national defense must include a reorganization of industrial resources, the national guard federalized and strengthened as the result of the h'u '-r service , creation of a council for national defense, founding of the "Plattshurg" citizens' training camps, upbuilding of the' aviaTion service, impetus to the officers' reserve corps, and generous appropriations for the army and navy over $035,000,000 in 1916.

has established himself in the world. Life insurance encourages the sav-i ing habit among the young, and once they establish that habit they are j blessed for life, for it is only through saving that men get. ahead in the world. The young man who purchases a life insurance policy on a good j sound legal reserve plan is laymg up something for the rainy day sure to j come to all men. j 'Particularly should life insurance appeal to the young man. for then i he can secure it at a lower cost, ihan ever again.

Men in middle life, married, with children and feeling the need of life insurance, sometimes find themselves uuabie to obtain it because of the in

discretions of vouth. Had they taken out a life insurance contract early in

life they would have ameliorated their condition to that extent. "Every young man expecting to engage in business for himself owes it to himself early to accumulate life insurance. Life insurance is the

greatest credit builder. Capital wi'.l go into any legitimate enterprise with j any reasonable show of success if those upon whose brains and energies the enterprise depends are fully covered with life insurance.
