J The Man of Moderate Means Needs protection for his estate just as urgently as the greatest financier. Be- ng smaller, losses would be especially erious and might lower the income elow the level of a living for his de- vendents. The safest way is to name a respons- ble Trust Company to administer the sstate. Then he will know that every- thing humanly possible has been done to safeguard his heirs against loss. The prudence and foresight of the testator will one day be appreciated by his heirs and other beneficiaries.
