l am just wondering if—whether yon be banker, far
mer, merchant, teacher, or just a business man—if you
had stock in an organization with $40,000.00 surplus and
undivided profits set aside to protect your investments
and gpiarantee the return of your dividends at the time
when due—would you just walk out and start all over
again
It has taken seven years of hard work on the part
of your officers and directors, and seven years of the
finest spirit ever displayed by any people anywhere to
place your association in a class to itself with $40,000.00
deposited in banks and invested in bonds for your pro
tection. *
Associations have come and gone, leaving those
whose monies were intrusted to them disappointed and
in many instances hurt in a financial way because they
could not have returned to them that which was due and '
for which they had paid at a time when they were most
needy of the assistance the association would have given
them.
We would not dare suggest to you that these peo
ple who have disappointed you and your friends were
either selfish or disnon
honest, but we would say that they
were most unfair to themselves and you because of their
failure to secure and use the facts relative to the or
ganization and operation of burial associations, rather
than spend so much time talking about cheapness of
operation. We, too, believe, in economical living, in
cluding every part of life, but not to hurt and ruin.
We have almost reached our goal of ^1.00 in the
treasury for every member in the files of your associa
tion, and when this surplus has been reached, then vour
officers will certainly be ready to say to you: “WHEN
CHEAPER INSURANCE IS WRITTEN, in keeping with
sound and safe policies, REINS-STURDIVANT MU
TUAL BTJRIAL association, INC., will write it in
the communities it serves.”
