Will Greatly Assist Your Insurance In Accomplishing Its Vital Purpose Back of practically every purchase of life insurance there is a purpose which reveals a real need for this pros tection.

Yet if the policies provide for the payment of the pro- ceeds in a lump sum to beneficiaries who are inexperienced in handling large amounts, this money may find its way into the paths of destructive fm-ce.a and suffer unneces~ sary shrinkage. The first requisite is that you carry a sufficient amount of life insurance: the second points out that you be certain your insurance will accomplish its true purpose. This can be arranged through a Life Insurance Trust which the American Security and Trust Company is equipped to ad- minister, and in which you specify fixed amounts to be paid A Life Insurance Trust e an estate. at definite times for certain purposes.’ ’ Consult with the Officers 'of our Trust Department 15th and Penna.
