This trick is not as difficult as you may think. In fact, you
have probably.done it yourself.
Actually, this man is simply mailing a payment on his lifa
insurance policy. And the houses he’s helping to build are the
result of investments made for him out of that money by his
life insurance company.
In the same way, every life insurance policyholder renders
many other valuable services to his fellow-citizens. For invest
ments may also be made for him in ways that help finance
new roads, schools; waterworks and other important projects.
So, if.you own life insurance, remember—while you’re build
ing security for your family and yourself, you’re also helping to
make Canada a better land to live in!
P.S. from your life insurance man
"Invested life insurance dollars earn interest that makes it
possible for you and your family to enjoy the benefits of life
insurance at such low cost. If you have any questions about
how to make life insurance fit your own special needs, give
me. a call. I'll be glad to help you I"
