() YOU WISH your family to have perennial income? Then it will pay you to implant your Life Insurance holdings in a Trust Fund. As Trustee, we would collect your insurance and invest the proceeds in good income-yielding securities, and pay the income to those you have named. You can decide in advance how long this arrangement shall continue and when the principal shall finally he paid over by us. If, in the meantime, family emergencies arise, partu of the principal can be withdrawn to take care of them if you so arrange. Why not come in some time and let us tell you more about this popular form of family protection ?

ROAD CONTRACT LET The contract f r the improvement of state road 43 between Greencastle and Oawfordsville was let in two parcels Tue,-(bn by the Indiana Mate highway commission. It totaled slightly under one half million dollars and it is believed work will be - tarted
immediatey.
The entire job can be completed this summer, local contractors say, but it is a big task, and will hardly be ' pened for traffic this fall, unles- the weather throughout the summer i.-
unusually good.
The Herns Construction Company of Indianapolis was awarded the contract for the north end of the road. They recently completed the south stretch between Lafayette and Crawfordsville, and will move their equif*mem from its place north of ( rawfordsville to a point south and start work at once. The contract price for this job wa- $198,567.36. This was about $55,000 under the ivtimated cost
by the engineer.
The section from Greencastle t > Raccoon went to the Swords, McDougal, Knapp Co., of Peoria, III., an I the price for this work will total $277,208.71. The estimate of the engineer was slightly more than $341,000. It is presumed the work on the south section will lx* started just as -oon as the contractors can locate their equipment and machinery. Much of the material for both job will come out of Greencastle, including the cement and the stone for the cement, and with the local plants working at full capacity during the summer months and with scores of men working on the actual construction work on the job, there should he no shortage of labor for those who want to work during this summer. | Not oidy will mail 43 be under construction, but road 36 has already , been starteil and will be constructed during the summer from the Hanna I cross roads to Rockville, j These road improvements, with the , bridges, promises to make these places i busy scenes during the next six or eight months.
