Hold on to your Life Insurance
too ... with both hands
Your life insurance policy is very valuable ptoperty
• because if anything happens to you, your depen-
dents will receive riot merely what you saved, but et/ the money that you planned for their benefit ...
either in cash or as an income.
• because, in policies having guaranteed cash values,
your savings- are protected against casual spending,
yet are always there to use in a financial emergency.
• because the payment of every dollar that your poll-
cies promise you at retirement is also guarrinteed.
Guaranteed family security and guaranteed savings make
life insurance the number one gilt-edged investment for;'
met 71,4 million Canadians.
This inducible properly is worth holding

W. A. Ross, Idaho, a former
Clinton citizen has shown his pat-
riotic spirit in a very practical
way, by knitting 35 soldiers'
sweaters for the American Red.
Cross. Mr. Ross is a brother-in-
law of Mrs, T. Mason of town and
Mrs. C. B, Smith, Seaforth, and
will be remembered by many peop-
le here.
At a special meeting of the
council of Goderich Township, a
by-law was passed and will be
submitted to the people to be vot-
ed on at the coming election mak-
ing the term of reeve and council-
lors two years instead of one.
This looks like a move in the right
direction. There seems to be small
need of the turmoil of a municipal
election every year and a council
elected for two years would have
time to work out some of its plans
instead of having to leave them
for a new council to deal with.
If Goderich Township passes this
by-law its working out will be
watched with interest by other
municipalities.
