For the human spirit, ennobled by imagination, is also most vulner- able through imagination. The mother who looks after a sick child at home can find in her nursing duties some measure of relief for her own troubled heart. But anxiety mounts for the woman whose son lies wounded overseas. Over and over she re- peats the broken words: "If I were only there-if I coul donly help-if I could just do Something." Those words have come to embody the yearning of millions of us here in America.

JOE FLORIDA 16. a~C~ AO THE intention of every man with a family is that his property be passed on to his wife and children at his death. Unfortunately, this doesn't always happen be- cause the family may be the very last to receive a part of the estate property. Funeral expenses, other death costs and outstanding debts have to be paid, and they come ahead of the family. Thousands of far-seeing men are using our special Jefferson Standard Clean Up Plan to take care of last expenses. This plan will put your family first and assure them of receiving all of the property that you leave. It can also be combined with other Jefferson Standard plans to provide replacement of income. At no cost, ask about our Clean Up glan today, FRANK HANNON OFFICE ST. JOE MOTOR CO.

There is a 2-for-1 that the average American family can and does collect on. And that's the double amount of electric service such a family gets today ... for the same money it paid 15 years ago. Yes, your bill may be as much as or more than-it was in 1929. But you're using more electric conveniences now- and getting about twice as much for what you pay Remember, too, that unlike other prices, the price of electricity has stayed down. What's the secret? Efficient business operation. Experienced men, women and management, who know their business from long years of serving you!
