The way to get around this is to have mrre life insurance. We represent the Travelers Life our representative will call if you wish. Phone "East Chicago One."

t S. -r-rv Til to vir

East Chicago, Indiana, July 28, 1920. Dear Son: Glad you got your raise. You probably wouldn't have had nerve to ask for it if you hadn't known that you weren't entirely dependent upon your job. I tell you, boy, a bank account is a great stiffener of the spinal column. No man can do his best when the constant fear of poverty is before him. And in these days a young man needs his best efforts if he is to hold his owg. The cry of middle-age failure is, "Oh, if I had but realized these thinjjs when I was young. Sincerely, DAD.

A Hundred Years from Now

Historians record that in England during the reign of King Alfred the Great the general honesty cf the people was such that it was unnecessary to lock doors at night. - One hundred years from now historians can write that prosperity was so general and work so plentiful in 1920 that it was within the reach of every worker to have a savings account at the bank. From the time after the black death in 1351, when half of Europe's population died and when wages of laborers doubled, down to this day wages of workers have never been so high. A savings account possible for every worker in 1920! Have you a savings account? If not, it isn't too late to start you can start an account here with $1.00.
