Maybe you don't think that money
can harm you. But nowadays, unless
you handle it with care, it can make
things tougher for you and others.
If ypu spend it on things you think
may soon be scarce, or may cost more
later, you will help drive prices still
higher. And that will hit you where it
hurts— in your own wallet.
But every dollar you save now —in
life insurance, bank deposits, or savings
bonds —helps keep prices down. And
it can work for ypu in other important
personal ways.
For instance, you may need money
someday for an unexpected emergency.
Or, perhaps, for starting a new business
. . . buying a new home . . . sending
your boy or girl to college. These and
Other plans may remain just dreams
— unless you have more money saved.
In your savings plan, life insurance
meets a special need. For you can use
it to combine savings with financial
protection for your loved ones.
So, to help keep prices down ... to
provide for your tomorrows . , . SAVE!
