THE MENACE OF POLIO
The least we can do is to provide
Hangs over our heads all the time,
funds to take care of hospital and
medical expenses should it strike us.
Mutual Benefit of Omaha, the com
panion insurance company of Mutu
al of Omaha, offers a cover
ing one child at the extremely low
cost of $5.00 per year. You can cover
the whole family for $12.00 a year.
This policy pays up to $5,000.00 per
person covered and protects also
against scarlet fever, leukemia, diph
theria, spinal or cerebral memingi
tis, tetanus, rabies, small pox and
sleeping sickness.
Can you afford not to provide this
financial aid when it costs so little?
I’ll be happy to take your applicat
ion any time.
