A New Low Cost Plan
THE JEFFERSON FAMILY PROVIDER
Because of the current high cost of living, many men are be- ginning to realize that their present insurance would provide an inadequate income for their families. The Jefferson Family Pro- vider has been designed to meet the need for more life insurance protection at less than usual cost-a special plan for preferred risks only.
IT GUARANTEES TO YOUR FAMILY: A. In event of your death during first 20 years; or before age 65 if earlier: $5,000 in cash immediately PLUS a monthly income of $50.00 for the next 20 years (total payments $17,000). -OR- $14,460 in cash immediately.
B. If death occurs after first 20 years; or after age 65 if earlier: $5,000 in cash immediately.
· IT GUARANTEES TO YOU: $14,460 life insurance at little more than usual cost on $5,000, with increasing cash or loan values which are instantly available in financial emergency.
. Let us tell you more about it. Just call or write-

Mr. 4%
Mr. 4% represents the Jefferson Standard
Jefferson Standard, now
guaranteeing 2 1/2% on policies currently issued, has never paid less than 4% interest on policy pro- ceeds left on deposit to provide income.
4% IS THE HIGHEST RATE OF INTEREST PAID BY ANY MAJOR LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY.
Your Mr. 4% is:
Mr. 4% shows how a Jefferson Standard Policy paid $3300 more.
Here is an actual cash comparison ... proceeds from a $10,000 policy in another ma- jor life insurance company compared to a $10,000 Jefferson Standard policy, both at the same cost.
John Blake provided for fu- ture income with a $10,000 life insurance policy.
Charles White provided for future income with a $10,000 Jefferson Standard policy. -
BUT HERE'S THE DIFFERENCE
On Blake's death, his wife received $50 monthly for 21 years and 5 months, at which time benefits were exhausted. This policy paid only 21/2% interest income on funds left in trust. BUT-
When White died, his wife received $50 a month, too. At the end of 21 years and 5 months, Mrs. Whife could look forward to 5 years and 6 months more of $50 monthly payments. She re- ceived $3300 more in all from the Jefferson Standard policy.

Out of Sight! Out of Mind! Out of Business!
The importance of keeping firm and prod- uct names in the public eye is recognized by all business men. It is astonishing to see how a firm or product, however meritori- ous, will slip into the limbo of the forgotten if not persistently advertised.
The City Directory is the natural medium for keeping a business or product name in the spotlight. Insist on being well represented in its pages.
