As a good family man, or as a good citizen, you save some part of what you earn. You save it either through putting money in the bank, or through the purchase of insurance or securities. There is little chance of those savings being lost. But there is grave danger that their value will be destroyed. The value of savings is progressively destroyed every time the buying power of the dollar is reduced, Buying power of the dollar inevitably goes down as prices go up, Prices go up every time there is a wage increase without a cor- responding increase in man-hour production, It is just as simple as that, So to protect your savings, wages and production must be kept in . balance, Published as a Public Service by THE STEEL COMPANY OF CANADA, LIMITED Plants at HAMILTON BRANTFORD f SWANSEA GANANOQUE MONTREAL ZS et t1 en — FEAT' RING — Norma Lac e ally Koster and the Vocal Quartet CANADA'S NUMBER ONE DANCE BAND omagn, YOUR Colony House $ash EARLY Sash Open or Glazed Complete Window Units 'with rrefitted Sash.
