Men of Affairs-

Safeguard their Estates by appointing a respon- sible Trust Company to act as Executor or Trus- tee. There is no reason why smaller estates should not be similarly protected. They are in greater need of it --- can less afford to incur risk. Any man with property to bequeath to his heirs should take this means of safeguarding them against unwise investment and also avoiding the uncertainties of individual trusteeship due to pos- sible death, sickness or absence. A personal call or correspondence invited.
