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 212% 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. White 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.

Please! Do Not Lend Your CITY DIRECTORY
IT COSTS YOU MONEY-Every Time it Is Loaned
The practice of lending your City Directory, in a great measure, is responsible for the increasing cost of Directory Service.
The reason is :- There is a definite cost involved in the making of the DIRECTORY of Your City.
THIS COST MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE SUBSCRIBERS-BE THEY ONE-OR BE THEY 1000.
If there were but ONE SUBSCRIBER to the CITY DIRECTORY-THE ONE SUBSCRIBER would of necessity have to absorb THE WHOLE COST.
If there were 100 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/100th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
Il there were 1000 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/1000th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.
From which it is obvious that the GREATER the number of subscribers -the LESSER the cost to each.
And
It is also obvious that the LESSER the number of subscribers-the GREATER the cost to each.
Every time you loan your City Directory the LESS NECESSITY THERE IS FOR THE BORROWER TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE SERVICE.
MORE BORROWERS result in FEWER SUBSCRIBERS which means IN- CREASED COST.
