ANNOUNCING
A Service of Real, rrnetlcnl Benefit to the Men nnd Women of this
City nnd Vicinity.
Every person in this community who now has a Life Insurance Pol
icy, or expects to have one soon will gladly take advantage of the ser
vice this hank now offers for meeting the annual expense.
Life Insurance is a valuable and
necessary thing for every man
to have, no matter what his
financial circumstances. Our
advice, given as bankers, ia th&t
every man should carry enough
good insurance to assure the
future independence of his fam
ily, to protect his business in
terests and prospects.
But, many people lack the in
surance protection they really
need because they .have found
the annual premium expense
too isrea, a burden to bear..This
is because no pratical plan has
heretofore been provided for
setting aside a portion of . the
weekly or. monthly income as
fund to meet this payment.
t
The'Thrift" Insurance Paying Plans
offer the most statlsfnctory solution of tills problem.
They are a part of the Service offered by our "Thrift Savings ClubB"
Department, which was organized to give everyone assistance in finan
cial matters; and which so many people havo found helpful in various
ways. Since Life Insurance is bucIi a necessary, thing for all classes of
people, we feel it is our duty to come .forward with this Servjce, which
will make possible its universal purchase, by eliminating the hardship
of paying the premium, and thus help increase the prosperity of our
people.
No Charge for this Scrvice'A Plan to Suit Every Need.
' No matter what the amount of your annual premium, or when it is
fhiR. there is a "Thrift" plan to care for it nicely. Either call, write or
telephone the bank for information or ask any Insurance , Agentjn the
city, we are here to serve you.
Watch for announcement next Friday.

The life and Endowment Plans.
Tho Ufo.'plan maKoa protection during life tho chief object of Insur
ance and tho most important period that we need this protection is
during our. nctlvo period of life, say from 20 to GO years of ago .
Tho Endowment plan combines firotectlon with an Investment feature,
frojm which, tho iusurod will roap the. benefit of living at tho end of
tho endowmont period Under tho usual ondowmont forms, sayd 10,
15, 20 or 25 years endowment policies, the premium Is Ulgu , for tho
protection afforded (abjvo tho average' man's ability to pay) and
whoro the sacrifice is mado and thoy aro carried, tho ondowmont period
comes early in lifo and you use tho money, lose tho protection early
' In llfo and .when-you come to old age you are not much botteroit,
Th Fhlolltv now issues a policy, to a great oxtent, combines the
