Pope Pius inguired after the car- dinal's health several time: To Make the New Year Happy HE NEW YEAR will witness the concluding months of a great decade of progress during which new ideas have supplanted old and prosperity has blessed this nation in great- er abundance than it has ever known. To assist in surveying one’s affairs relating to the home in order to check up on items unaccomplished, pertinent questions are here suggested in the hope that they will prove of practical helpfulness to many people. Have T made all of the legal arrangements I should for the conservation of my estate ? Is my will in accordance with all of my ideas in this yi 1930 or does it deal with conditions of several years ago” r of Does my will name a corporate executor and trustee, thus as- suring economical and trustworthy management? Is my life insurance protected by a Life Insurance Trust so planned that a sure and steady income will be paid indefinitely to those dependent upon me? Wouldn't it be advisable to take up some of the questions here listed with a bank with trust powers and benefit by its ex- perience in handling similar problems? Wouldn't 1930 be a happier vear if I started it off by removing all uncertainty con- cerning my estate, its present and its future? k| Tf you answer the last two questions affirmatively, we are con- fident that, in addition to wishing you a Happy New Year, we could help to insure its happiness.
