ARMSTRONG PHONE: 181 WHERE YOU NEVER HAVE TO .BLOW YOUIjt HORN ♦ Dramatic Proof of Chevrolet's Success I , Everywhere in Canada, consistently, more Che­ vrolet cars are sold than those of any other m ni- • facturer. And now, to a greater extent than < before, the 1955 Chevrolet is the favorite of Canadians from coast to c.oast. This Is Important To You! Because Chevrolet builds so many more cars, each one costs less to make. That’s the simple, provable effect of volume production. And this saving is passed on to you in the form of more value, and more features for the money than you can get with any other car on the market. Also, compare Chevrolet’s prices and you’ll know for sure at least one reason why so many more people buy Chevrolet year after year — especially this year.

But, unlike the families of just a generation ago, they have .a better chance of making those dreams come true. Why? One important reason is because life insurance is much more flexible today. During the past 25 years, many new policies have been created. The modern "family in­ come” policy, for instance, provides maximum coverage while children are young, and reduces in amount as they become self-supporting. Other policies have been deve­ loped to cover mortgages, and to provide retirement income to fit in with the government old age security benefits. This wider choice reflects just one of the ways in which life insurance companies and their representatives have adapted their services to the changing needs of Canadians in all walks of life!
