A Letter From A Thought
 fuI Son To His Father

Dear Father:-Whlle 1 have not had any business experience. I know have been an expense to you every day since 1 was born. I am sure you have paid account of doctor, clothes, food, amusements and schooling, at least $500. % a year. or, a total of $9, 500 during nineteen years of existence. The expense for the four years University Course will be about s, 900 more before I begin to be selfsustainIng.
 I want you to know that I ap- preciate all you have done for me. and If live I will try to re- pay you. If live, that's the question? If I should die during the next four years, yes, the next ten years, you would lose all the money 1 have cost you. 1 have been studying life insur- ance and 1 find that a good many bankers and business men insure people who owe them, and lots of fathers are insuring their sons and I have been thinking it might be good plan for you to insure my life. If 1 should die before l am able to earn money and pay you, you will get back some of the money have cost. If I live. you can surrender the policy for it's cash value when 1 get to making money. I don't ask you to do this. but thought 1 would tell you about it.
 Kiss Mother and Sisters for me.
 Affectionatelv,
 WALTER.
 I wish every boy between the age of fifteen and twenty would commit the above to memory. If they did, they would more thoroughly appreciate what they owe their parents. I also wish every father of boys between the age of fifteen and twenty would give it careful considera- tion.
 The father of Walter consider ed it and he insured his sons life fer $1O.OOO. He said; T don't purpose to surrender the Ssdicy for cash, but as soon as my son becomes self-sustaining and able to pay the premiums. 1 will turn it over to him. By so doing, It will enable him to get his insurance much cheaper on account of his younger age, than if he waited until he was able to pay the premiums himself. r."
 Many, many fathers are doing | likewise, yes, and as Walter says. many bankers and business men today are demanding life insurance as additional security from people who owe them.
 Create an Estate for yourself |  by taking out a Policy in the New York Life Insurance Con- pany. Do it Today-Tomorrow may be too late. Get policy, and then hold on to it. It means self-respect, it means that no- body will have to put something in a hat for you or your depen- dent ones if you should be sud- denly taken away from them.
 Call and see me. I can assist you in selecting the form of New York Life Policy that will suit best your particular case.

Before leaving Fairbanks on the last boat, George Anderson, the piano tuner who annually makes trips north, called at The Citizen office and asked that all of his friends be thanked through these columns for the patronage extended to him while he was here.
