The Treasure Chest MRS, J. S. RADCLIFFE LUCAN Progress "up ih the air' You can call a halt to progress any time— even "up in the air". The quickest way, for both individuals and business is to stop planning for the future—or riot to have the ability to plan for any future, in essence, the principle of fire, automobile and casualty in- surance iS that it is a plan for the future. It ensures progress by banding people together to share the expected losses of the few among the many, Because it allows people to "average out" their chances of a completely crushing loss into a relatively small fixed expense, insurance enables them to move ethoctd on a planned basis, The fact that Canada's fire, automobile and casualty insurance companies are paying out more than a Million and a lictlf dollars every day this year in claims indicates that prudent Canadians make safe plans for their future.
