THE FUNERAL HOME
Although a comparatively recent innovation, the funeral home is
rapidly establishing itself as one of the necessities of modern civi
lization. The conditions of present-day life make it undesirable,
and often impossible to manage the funeral service and its pre
liminary details in the residence.
When a funeral home is used, the bereaved family is relieved of
many unnecessary burdens. In addition the facilities of an estab
lishment intended for the purpose eliminate many possible hitches
and make the ordeal easier for over-wrought nerves.
Our funeral home is complete id every detail. Its use does not in
crease the cost of our work, and it enables us to offer a more sat
isfactory service.

The financial strength of a man who carries his money in his
pocket is just what he has in his pocket.
Net so the ipan whose money is all in his bank.
The one conducts his business in away that no one knows just
where he stands financially. The other conducts his business so
that his bank has a line on his financial affairs. The latter soon
establishes a line of credit that doubles his ready cash resources.
. It is best to be a bank depositor.
