All of these people serve you in

life, they may also be helping
you in certain important un

Take your postman, for in.

ownership of life insurance. It’s
possible — because the money
of thousands of life insurance
policyholders is invested for
them in building homes

In the same way your milk

helped build new highways,
waterworks, schools, power

And—who knows—perhaps
your job too was created by these
life insurance policyholders’
dollars, invested to develop
new businesses and industries.

you — does more than provide

He also serves his fellow

Side by side on the merchants’ shelves —
Canadian materials and “imported” goods. Do you
get any advantage when you go for
'‘imported” products?
In textiles, at least, the answer is simple. Canadian
mills turn out fabrics and yarns that match or
better the production of any other textile country
of the world in quality.
They are made by Canadians who are paid
good Canadian wages; they are designed to please
Canadian tastes, meet Canadian needs.
This is no plea to shun “Imported0 materials.
They should be considered along with domestic
products by every Canadian consumer, but on a
strict what-do-I-get-for-niy-dollar basis.
Ask for Canadian textiles if you want the best
for your money.
