Plan Trusts For Care
Of Lots In Cemetery
it. is not required of us to main
tain separate accounts for each
individual participant in the
fund. In a similar case we are
handling the investments for
the cemetery in one combined
fund and the cemetery itself
keeps a subsidiary record as to
the individual participants,
showing their interest in the
fund and, of course, allocating
earnings of the fund to the par
ticipants in accordance with
their respective interests.
"I am enclosing information
with respect to the common
trust fund account operated by
Wachovia Bank and Trust com
pany for the benefit of Us trust
accounts, the primary purpose
of which is to give wide diver
sification to investments for
participating trusts, none of
which may invest more than
$50, 00ft in the fund, nor is in
vestment in it available to any
investor other than by partici
pation through a trust under
administration by Wachovia
Bank and Trust company. The
fund is currently earning slight
ly in excess of 3 per cent per
annum on amounts invested
therein.
"For handling a fund such as
you mention, we would apply
our charitable fee schedule,
which is 5 per cent commission
to us on income collections and
no charge at any time on prin
cipal."

" . . . just like a letter from home".
F.OPLE who live in Macon County
read The Franklin Press and The Highlands Macon
ian every week, as a matter of course.
But to Macon County folks who are away from
home, it's weekly visits are doubly welcome.
"... just like a letter from home", they repeatedly
write about The Press.
What about thkt boy of yours in the service? Does
he get The Press? Why not subscribe for him?
And that brother or sister or aunt or'uncle who
lives in Louisiana or Maine or Texas or California?
They'd etljoy the home town paper no end.
A subscription to The Press makes an ideal gift,
any time, because no other gift brings a message
from home 52 times during the year.
