My work is pretty largely just a matter of talking with
people and explaining to them the many unique features
of National Aid Lite protection. For there is a differ-
e5ic- y°u know, in hie insurance companies, their types
of policies, and the cost of protection.
I find people are interested in what we have to otter—
for National Aid Life insurance is so especially designed
to meet the needs of the family of average income. You
get a maximiMn /mount of protection per dollar of
premium cost. More than 40.000 families in the states
of Oklahoma, Texas and Arkansas today enjoy National
Aid Lite protection, with insurance in font! totaling
