ARBOR DAP WILL
BE OBSERVED By,
MINNESOTA FRIDAY

st. Paul. Mimi, April 2S.-Arbor
day will be Observed throughout Min
ncsota tomorrow, especially through
planting of trees in honor Of the Min
nesota soldier dead. A proclamation
by Governor j. A. A. BurnQuist, call
ing for Arbor day observance, follows:
There is still in Minnesota a por-
ton Of the, virgin forest. but that
which remains covers a comparatively
small area. 1t is our duty to consider
ways and means whereby we may pre-.
vent its negligent waste and to pro-
-Vide new forests to replace, in so far
as possible and advisable those that
are gone.
Because Of the abundance Of trees
in our state. we sometimes fail to ap-
p%reciate, their. beauty and utility.
When we stop to consider the DESC
lateness of regions in which they. do
not grow we realize much more fully
how fortunate we are in having here
a soil in which they can be 50 easily
produced.
Last year was inaugurated a beau
tiful practice OF planting trees in
honor of those who died in the world
war. I urge hat ceremonies of such
a kind be more widely observed this
year.
Now therefore, 1, Joseph A. A
Burnquist, governor Of Minnesota, dc
hereby proclaim April 80, 1920. Arbol
day. and commend to the pupils OF
our schools and to all our people the
planting of trees ION said day ir
memory of our soldier dead and fol
such ornamental and useful purposes
as has heretofore been the CUSTOM

Following up the subject of first
year nonforfeitureN features of Nut
ual Benefit policies which / touched
upon recently now show you that
at some ages we have extended in
surance with only the first half of
the first years premium paid.
Only One Semi-annual Payment
Tulsa, Okla, March 16, 1909.
Mr.. A. D. Young, agent,
Mutual Benefit Life Ins. Co.,
Tulsa, Okla.
Dear sir:
Please accept my sincere thanks
for your company's check for $10,-
900 which is now received, just ten
days after the papers were sent in.
My husband took this insurance
last summer, the policy being dated
July IA, 1913, with premiums pay
able semi-annually. He paid the
first semi-annual premium but did
not pay the second which was due
on January IA of this year, and told
me that the policy had lapsed. He
died quite suddenly on March 1, and
i was greatly surprised to learn from
you that by the non-forfeiture pro-
visions of his policy it was kept in
force sixty days after the second pay
ment was due, and that as he had
died within this time the policy was
still in force and would be paid in
full. This has now been done and
| realize how very fortunate it was
that Mr.. Friend had this policy in
the Mutual Benefit, the only COM
pany that / know anything about
which would have paid anything
under these circumstances.
Very truly yours,
JULIA A. FRIEND.
Mr.. Friends policy had lapsed for
non-payment of the second half of
the first years premium, January
IA, 1909. Under the non-forfeiture
provision of his contract, however,
the insurance was automatically ex-
tended for sixty days, to March IA.
When Mr.. Friend died therefore the
claim was paid. AS beneficiary, Mrs.
Friend received only what was due
her under the written contract, yet
under the policy contracts of other
companies she would not have re-
ceived a cent. Avoid regrets by in
the Mutual Benefit.
When you consider that no other
company in the world would have
paid under these circumstances the
real value of this company.s prac-
tees are apparent.
My fourth annual accelerative en-
dowment party will be pulled off at !
the X of p: hall Wednesday night, |
Jan. % and this meeting all policy |
holders are urged to attend and

and all / ask is that I be advised SO
can put his name in the pot.
