NOW YOU CAN REDUCE YOUR FIRE AND OTHER INSURANCE COSTS

In Indianapolis most of the large businesses and hundreds of the smaller business and home owners are saving one-fourth of their insurance premiums by insuring with the In- diana Lumbermens Mutual Insurance Com- pany.

This highest quality protection available to only select risks results in lower loss expense and consequently lower cost of insurance to you.

The dividend that is returned at the expiration of every policy reduces your insurance cost. This dividend, which has never been less than 25% on most all forms of coverage, has amounted to more than nine million dollars.

If you own select property-within the limits of city fire protection-you can save a very worthwhile portion of your insurance cost. For detailed information, call LIncoln 5345 and ask that one of our representatives call. You will not be obligated to buy.

The advantages of Home Office Service are available to Indianapolis owners of select property.
