THE DELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF CANADA "Canadian Destroyer Back From Korean Duty", "No SQUIRREL," frowned Sammy, "would ever do what you've done today!" "But all I did was buy five new moss pillows," retorted Sophie, his wife, "Ummhmna," said Sammy. "Did we need to get new moss pillows?" "No," answered Sophie, "but everybody knows there's a terrific shortage of moss — so moss pil- lows are getting scarcer and scarcer. Besides, the prices are bound to go higher." "They certainly will if every. body follows your example," growled Sammy. "That sort of buying just bends prices up high- er. But what worries me is—what's happening to our savings," "Savings?" echoed Sophie, "How can we save when the cost of living is higher than a Douglas Fir? Take this tail brush, for in. stance. Ten years ago I could buy one for five measly beechnuts. Now they cost two horse.chest• nuts. Or take . , " "I know, I know," cut in Sammy. "But we still need to save for the same reasons we always have, We've got to keep adding to our bank account, paying our life • insurance and buying savings bonds, Or leave town." "Leave town?" gasped Sophie. "For heaven's sake why?" "Because," said Sammy, "every. body thinks squirrels are savers, So if people find Out we're not saving they'll say we're not sgutr- refs/ We'll be exiled. Banished." "Oh, dear!" exclaimed Sophie, "I never thought of that. I'm sorry, Sammy. From now on I'll really try to save every way I can, Oak?" "Oak !" said Sammy. MORAL: These days, it is vital- ly important for everyone to save money to help check inflation -- and to provide for his own future needs NOTE TO FATHERS; Remember — life insurance is your most important form of saving be. cause it provides financial security for your family, So pay your pre, /Mums regularly, Add new hie in. surance as you need it.
