The Cope-Swift Safety Oil
Burner.
The Cope Swift Safety Oil Burn-
er is the warmest friend of the fam-
ily. Cope-Swift engineers have
been responsible for the design and
refinement of more than one-third
of all American household heating
equipment during their .10 years in
Detroit.
Those mechanically inclined will
appreciate the safety's one moving
part that converts the oil into an
inflarnable fog which is ignited by
a constantly burhing pilot. This
oil in suspension burns in the fire-
box with a clean, cone-shaped
flame: quietly, because in effecting
combustion it employs low velocity
warm air; safely, because the
steady burning pilot compels safe
ignition; and efficiently, because
the flame has a constantly correct
ratio of air to oil.
Because of its simplicity, quiet-
ness and safety, the Cope-S•itf
Safety Burner works efficiently
with any type of furnace, hot air,
steam, hot water er vapor.

an EQUITABLE CHECK
. . . not merely once, but year after year as long as you live or as
long as your wife survives you?
Equitable life insurance primarily protects your family in the
event of your death. But the Equitable interpretation of life in-
surance is to make it of lasting value—to you in your own old age,
to those who survive you, and for such other definite purposes
as you may desire.
The Equitable way is the modern way—a well planned budget
for your life's objectives. Here are two typical examples:
U. S. S. Lexington Equipped
For Land, Sea, and Air.
Part of the regular equipment of
the U. S. S. Lexington, airplane

world is a Graham Brothers truck

truck is carried an airplane wing to

emergency exists.
The keel for the Lexington was
laid Jan. 8, 1921 and the ship was
launched Oct. 3, 1925 but did not

The Cleveland Jewish Orphan,
Home was founded by the B'nai
B'rith 60 years ago to provide care
and shelter for Civil War Jewish
orphans. The newest of its pres-
ent buildings is more than a half
century old and the institution is
located in a steadily deteriorating
neighborhood known in Cleveland
police and newspaper circles as the
"roaring third precinct" because
of its criminal and vicious charac-
ter. It is one of Cleveland's most
congested neighborhoods also.
Intensive organization of Dis-
trict No. 6, comprising Illinois,
Michigan, Wisconsin, North and
South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa and
Minnesota is now under way and
the campaign officers expect to
have the campaign completed in
these states by early summer.
Twenty-live children will be
housed in each of the 12 cottages
of the new buildings under the
care of a cottage mother. There
are at present 347 children at the
home, .
The goal of the new building
campaign is $1,600,000, of which
the eight states of B'nai B'rith
District No. 2 have assumed a
quota of $1,000,000 and the eight
states of District No. 6 $000,000.

that it will never fail, seems too
good to be true. It is not only the
financial aid, but it is a monthly
reminder of my husband's thought-
fulness and kindness".
"An endowment policy taken
out years ago gave me funds just
when I needed them to buy a
house. Today my present insur-
ance protects my mortgage, will
give an income to my wife, and in-
sures school and college for my
children, whether I live or not. My
insurance is my best investment
and means of saving."
