(Copyright, WE DO 1929.) wishes, 50 we take advantage of its as- surance and make our wills. We may be ingerested in some par- ticular institution or relative to whom We are eager to give what we have. Certain choice possessions we wish to pass on to special friends. Sometimes wills are made to cut off certajn people and institutions rather than to place money in the hanhds of those we prefer. This is a negative and spiteful action prompted by a desire to display and perpetuate our grudges long after we are gone. Probably no man has a chance to complete all the projects he starts dur- A will is a probable guarantee of the continuance of a line of work one has not time to finish, We get a lot of satisfaction, while we are still alive, in the contemplation of what will be done with our money when we are gone. Some men derive the greatest pleas- ure from disposing of their wealth with their own hands. Others hang on to exceedingly generous in their wills. Freak wills are rather common. Many place restrictions on the personal lives of the receivers, stipulating marriage, or continence to inherit the fortune, etc. Such foolish wills are often set aside and become null and void. This type of will, affording as it does a good opportunity for complicated plot, makes a fine theme for many a novelist. If we have anything to leave we are likely to make a will because we are interested in what becomes of the fruit of our toil; because we are sentimental about some of our things which we wish to fall into friendly hands; and because it is a_businesslike thing to do. We make freak wills to express our in- dividuality. e S = IVERED OVEN-FResh Twi DALY TOYOUR DEALER: THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, 0 L WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 2 SONNYSAYINGS Help!
