HOW TO GET A GUARANTEED INCOME FOR LIFE

IT DOESN'T MATTER what your pay check is today. There's a Phoenix Mutual Retirement In- come Plan to fit your needs and your pocketbook.

Assuming you start early enough, you can arrange to get a check every month of $10 to $200 or more and you can have this income start at 55, 60, 65, or 70.

Send for the interesting illustrated booklet which describes the popular Phoenix Mutual plan and tells how to qualify for it. We'll be glad to mail you a copy -without cost or obligation. Just write or phone-

DO YOUR EMPLOYERS FURNISH YOU WITH THE LATEST EDITION OF THE CITY DIRECTORY?

You need it at your elbow at all times, to protect your company from forgers and bad-check artists. A few questions, checked against City Directory informa- tion, will trip them at once. Intelligent use of the City Directory for this purpose has saved thousands of dollars and helped make some cities "too sharp" for bad-check "operators."

TN ADDITION to names and addresses, your City Direc- 4 tory contains much detailed information concerning the people of your community. In order to list this information certain symbols and designations have been developed which enable important statistics to be compressed into the smallest possible space. You will receive far greater benefits from your City Directory if you familiarize yourself with the symbols and what they stand for.

In checking credit applications, in conducting direct mail advertising programs, in planning sales campaigns, in build- ing prospect lines, and in scores of other ways your City Directory will prove of invaluable assistance.
