Hello
THE DICTIONARY defines the word "neigh
bour’ as “a person who lives nearby ... on
neighbourly or friendly terms”. Doing business
with a neighbour—or fellow townsman—is what
most people prefer.
ON YOUR LIST of neighbours, who are per
sonally interested in your welfare, is your local
insurance agent* He respects the trust you have
placed in him. Your friendship is as much to
be gained and held as your business. Yes, be
cause your agent is your neighbour, you can
enjoy a feeling of confidence in your relation
ship with him.
YOUR INSURANCE PROTECTION needs are
his personal .concern. Yours is not a name and
address on his books—but that of a neighbour.
FOR OVER 50 YEARS folks have been buying
insurance from local agents* Far more insurance
is purchased in this manner than in any other
way.
