The escape was planned over a period of three months. He moved from his home town to a community near the German border and worked for a truck­ ing firm in an agriculture area.

Frank Thorogood builds for the future In 43 years, foreman carpenter Frank Thorogood has seen many im­ provements in building methods. “Power tools, pre-fabricated’ sections and the use of new structural materials make all the difference,” says Mr. Thorogood, “Develop­ ments like these have simplified our work—and make for stronger, more fire-resistant buildings.” In building for the future, Mr. Thorogood has enjoyed still another advantage—through the wider range of financial protection he can give his family because of modern developments in life insurance. Life insurance gives today’s families many new benefits. It npt only affords them financial protection that is more flexible, but can also provide money for the children’s education, for safeguarding the home mortgage, for arranging retirement income and for other purposes, In these and other ways, the life insurance companies have progressed with the times . . . meeting the needs of people in all walks of life, } Ufa insurance companies are a major source of mortgage * i funds for Canadian families — last year they invested fpur J } hundred and $ixty-flve million dollarsln this way. | L m M M M M M ■■ M ■ M M IM M M « M M M.M MWM M M M'lM MM M M M THE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA s a Church *I of PENTECOSTAL TABERNACLE Main St. 9:45 a.m.—Sunday School li:00 a.m.—Morning Worship 7:30 p.m.—Evangelistic Service Wed., 8 p.m.—Bible Study and Prayer Fri., 8 p.m.—Christ’s Ambassa­ dors Rev.
