You can buy fire, windstorm and automobile insurance at lower cost-saving as much as 25% on the standard rates. Lead- ing educational, financial, mercantile, manufacturing institutions and thousands of homes insured with the Indiana Lumbermens have saved 25% on their fire and windstorm insurance.

This forty-five-year-old insurance company, licensed and operat- ing in every state in the United States and Canada, has returned to policyholders more than eleven million dollars in dividends. Strictly non-assessable standard policies.
