Energy :Management Contract in Hungary
Hungary's electrical utility. MMMT, has awarded Hydro
a 10 month $500.000 contract to develop a long-term, in-
tegrated energy management program. The Hungarian
government believes that growth in electricity consump.
tion must be restrained in order to reduce reliance on im-
ported energy. Hungary's population is about the same size
as Ontario.
MVMT turned to Hydro for
help designing and implemen-
ting a successful program to reduce electricity waste and
improve efficiency. This
includes development of a
strategy, 10 -year targets, a
5 -year plan for meeting those
targets, and training of MVMP staff. This is the first com-
mercial contract for Hydro's extensive energy manage-
ment expertise.

Auto Insurance Scheme
Working After One Year
One year ago, the previous Ontario government introduc-
ed a new auto insurance system, called the Ontario
Motorist Protection Plan (OMPP). All of the signs to date
show that OMPP is working well for Ontario drivers.
Take the case of a 35 -year old farmer from northern On-
tario. During the winter, he had a terrible accident. He lost
control of his vehicle when he hit black ice on the highway.
The vehicle rolled and the farmer suffered a fractured
back.
Under the pre -DMPP insurance system, this man would
have received only $140 a week for lass of income. He could
not have sued anygne for more because there was no other
vehicle involved: And yet, hitting black ice on a winter
highway is not thetdriver's fault.
With OMPP ih place, the farmer was considerably more
fortunate. Based on the farmer's business income of
$100.000 over the previous year, his insurance company
paid benefits of $600 a week for loss of income. Had the
farmer chosen to purchase additional income insurance, he
could have received lass of income benefits of $1,050 per
week. The farmer continued to receive $600 each week for
the several months that he would not work. Best of all, he
started to receive benefits within ben days of filing his
claim.
OMPP guarantees that anyone injured in a car crash will
receive benefits to cover income loss, no matter who caused
the accident. Only people convicted of impaired driving are
excluded. Income replacement benefits are 8o per cent of
gross income, up to a maximum of $600 a week, tax free.
High earners can buy additional coverage providing
weekly benefits of $750, $900 or $1,050. Retired people,
students or those without jobs are eligible for benefits of
$185 a ween. Payments begin within ten to 30 days of the
relevant information being filed with the insurance corn-
pany-
In return for fast response and guaranteed compensation,
the ability to sue for additional compensation is restricted
under the new system. Lawsuits are permitted only in cases
of death and serious personal injuries. Because fault is no
longer an issue in the settlement of person injury claims,
people receive guaranteed benefits even when no one was to
blame for an accident.
For example, a 64 -year old pedestrian slipped on ice in
Hamilton and fell under a moving car. The victim broke
both legs and had other minor injuries. Neither he nor his
Wife own a car and because he is retired, under the old
system he would not have received income replacement
benefits.
However. with OMPP. the man received $185 a week as
well as medical and rehabilitation benefits up to $1 million.
Additional benefits up to $3.000 a month assist the victim's
wife in caring for him. Even the cost of building a ramp to
provide wheelchair access to the family hone was covered
by OMPP.
Jack Lyndon, President of the Insurance Bureau of
Canada, the association representing Ontario auto in-
surers, says, ..Ontario consumers are pleased with OMPP.
Most people are impressed with the speed of the responses
they receive to their claims. Consumers are also satisfied
with the level of benefits. Overall, there are very few com-
p..,
The experience of the Hamilton Automobile Club
demonstrates the common experience. Richard Kongdon,
president of the club says. "Since the new auto istrance
scheme began in July 1990. the Hamilton Automobile Club
has received only a handful of complaints about it. Prior to
July 1990, each year we received complaints by the
thousands.'.
Perhaps the biggest benefit of OMPP is just now beginn-
ing to be seen. After years of skyrocketing costs, claims are
now being settled quickly in a more predictable manner.
Before. many personal injury claims ended up in court,
where the size of settlements varied substantially and,
often, several years passed before cases were settled.
Restricting the right to sue has helped to stabilize the cost
of settling claims, which in turn, stabliizes car insurance
premiums.
Auto insurance companies have now had a year of ex-
penennce with the new system. Because costs have cone
down, many companies are looking at passing savings on to
consumers through premium reductions. Four major com-
panies have already announced their intentions to cut
rates: State Farm by eight per cent, Allstate by 6.3 per
cent, and Royal Insurance and Dominion of Canada by five
per cent.
Mr. Lyndon says, "It's ironic that just as evidence is
mounting to show how well OMPP is working for Ontario
drivers, the government seems determined to change the
system again. But this time, it's for purely ideological
reasons rather than for any real benefits to Ontario con-
sumers. "
The government has indicated that they will introduce
major changes to OMPP in the fall. Although no specific
plans have yet been announced, the government has
previously stated -that it intends to set up a government -
Here and There
The Faces of Poverty
A young man from New Brunswick trudges the streets of
Montreal looking for work. A single mother in Edmonton
wonders how she'll pay for cough syrup for her two-year
old, with the next welfare cheque stili two weeks off. A
50 -year old Oshawa metal worker wonders where he'll find
work now that his factory has closed. A 75 -year old widow in
Halifax stares at the walls of her bed -sitting room.
The raging recession is throwing more and more Cana-
dian families into poverty and threatening many others
with the same fate. It is time for us as a nation to unders-
tand better what poverty is and how we can deal with it. -
Ish Theilheimer, Editor "Transition".
June Resale Exceed 1990 Volumes
Twenty-two of Canada's 25 major markets posted resale
housing gains this June over last year, says The Canadian
Real Estate Association (CREA) .
In the centres surveyed, a total of 17,703 homes traded
hands during the month, an increase of 5,577 units or 46.0
percent compared with last year's figure of 12,126 sales.
A Friend In Need
More than 1.20 Ontario Hydro line and forestry staff
responded to a plea for help from New York state when high
winds and freezing rain knocked out power to more than
100,000 Niagara Mohawk Power customers during the early
days of March.
A late winter storm vented its full wrath on the south
shore of Lake Ontario, playing havoc with the electrical
system in the northeastern area of New York. Downed lines
due to ice buildup and fallen trees resulted in widespread
blackouts lasting several days before service was restored.
Niagara Mohawk President John Endnes thanked Hydro
staff for their help in a letter to Hydro President Robert
Franklin. "Your company's timely response to our call for
assistance and the hard work and long hours put in by your
crews contributed significantly to our ability to restore ser-
vice as quickly as we did," he wrote.
Sexy Cyclists
If you're a fan of cycling. chances are your sex life is in
great shape. reports the Reebok Information Bureau. In a
study of 1.675 readers of "Bicycling Magazine", two-thirds
said cycling made them better lovers, and almost half said
they had experienced an increased sex drive since they
started cycling.
Though respondents didn't say why they thought they
were better lovers, researchers theorize sexiness is a
logical byproduct of the improved self-image which stenns
from regular exercise.
Additional $7.5 Million For Arts
An additional $7.5 million to the base operating grant of
the Ontario Arts Council by the Government of Ontario has
been made_
OAC recently received a cosi of living increase of $1.5
million, or 4.2%, bringing its base from $34.5 million in
1990 91 to $36 million in 1991.92. This additional $7.5 million,
an increase of 20.8, now brings OAC's base for 1991 92 to
$43.5 million_
Lottery Profits Top $500 Million
Ontario Lottery Corporation IOLCi profits reached $508
mnillion dollar3 in the year ending Mar. 31, 1990, the fust
time annual profits totalled more than a half -billion dollars.
Lottery sales, prizes and profits all reached new record
levels during the year. Cash sales were $1.32 billion up $19
million. Prizes totalled 3622.1 million up $13.9 million and
Operating expenses were 6.7% of cash sales or $88.2 million.
STATFACTS
Canada's visible minorities are increasingly making
their presence felt in the Canadian labour fore. Statistics
Canada reports that of the 13 million labour force par-
ticipants in Canada in 1986, 832,000 were visible minorities.

Premiums and the specific benefits provided. They don't
need to own car insurance to make changes. Experience
has shown that public insurers in other provinces are not
able to provide customers with cheaper rates. Yet, con-
sumers give up the variety of products available and the
freedom to choose which company they deal with..,
An IBC study indicates that setting up a public insurance
company could cost as much as $1 billion and result in the
loss of up to 4,000 industry jobs and as many as 4,000 more to
industry brokers and suppliers. Most of the people who will
lose their jobs will be women, who make up the majority of
the industry's work force. Many industry jobs are in
smaller urban centres where alternative employment may
not be available.

World Renown Maths
Centre Opens In North York
Due to positive response
from students and parents
to the recently -introduced
Kumon Math Centres in
North Yat, a fourth centre
is planned for opening at
Don Mills Rd. and
Lawrence Ave.
Located at Donway Bap-
tist Church, 235 The Don-
way
oo-way East, the new Kumon
Math Centre will host an
open house on 'lours. Sept.
19th at 7:30 p.m. Parents
and children are invited to
attend and learn first-hand
about this innovative,
world-renowned method of
teaching mathemat;cs to
children. Instructor Bobbie
France will be available to
enrol students and answer
The Kumon Method, a
proven Japanese system, is
designed for students of all
abilities in math. The
method allows children to
solve problems by
themselves and progress at
their own pace through a
series of individual
worksheets - covering pre-
school level through to
calculus - until the work is
perfect and completely
understood within a
specific time frame.
Free from classmate
pressure, each child starts
at his/her own level of com-
fort and smoothly pro-
gresses to the next level as
the math problems
gradually increase in dif-
ficulty. Students can pro-
gress beyond their school
grade at their own pace
and according to their own
scholastic abilities.
Other Kumon Math Cen-
tres in North York are
located at Leslie and
Mnch, Yonge and Finch,
and Don Mills and Shep-
pard. The cost is $55 per
month.
"If children acquire a
good understanding of
math when they are young,
It will be much easier for
them to handle high school
level math," said Instruc-
tor Bobbie France.
-Kumon helps the c bildrert
with their regular school
math by reinforcing the
has and giving them an
individual study pian that
they may require."
North York resident
Maria Mindsunthy, whose
daughters Andrea, 13, and
Nicole, 10, attended the
Don Mills.Sheppard Math
Centre this past scbod
year, agreed. -We believe
Kumon made a difference
in both the girls' math
abilities, " she said. "Not
only did their math im-
prove, but because they
were able to solve the pro-
blems more easily over
time, their confidence
definitely built up."
Developed in Japan more
than 33 years ago, the
Kumon Method is the
largest math learning
system in the world and
has helped more than
seven million children aged
four to 15, across the globe.
Currently, almost two
million children are suc-
cessfully studying math
through this sytem in 20
countries worldwide.
In Metropolitan Toronto
alone, there are more than
30 after-school Kumon
Math Centres and three
more are opening in
September. Introduced into
Canada 11 years ago, the
method is now studied by
8,000 students in more than
80 Kumon Math Centres
across the country.

Active Parenting is a 12
week program presented
by the Scarborough Health
Department that focuses
on important issues for
parents of children three to

RRSP'S:
Look Before You Leap
With all types of RRSPs on the market today, constuners
face a difficult choice when deciding how to invest their
money. Look at a number of factors before making a deci-
sion.
Find out what it costs to get into a particular plan and
what it costs each year to stay in it. Get the facts about tax
penalties for withdrawing money from the plan or the cost
of converting it to annuity income. Finally, look at the rates
your money will earn while it is in the plan. In doing so, you
should consider the following:
RISKS INVOLVED
Do you want security for your capital and guaranteed in-
terest rates? Do you want input in investment decisions?
Usually the higher the return on your plan the greater the
risk.
CHARGES
What charges will you be expected to pay? These vary ac-
cording to the type of plan and the institution.
PLAN OPTIONS
Are there investment options offered within the plan?
What payment methods are available and how flexible are
may?
REPUTATION
Know the performance record of the institution you have
chosen for your RRSP.
DISCOUNTS ON PURCHASING A PAY -OUT ANNUITY
Does the institution offer an income bonus if you convert
your accumulated RRSP to annuity payments at retire-
ment?
FINANCIAL PLA.'NNING ASSISTANICE
Does the institution offer assistance in planning for
retirement?
Again, it is important to evaluate the charges which can
apply to RR.SPs. A high interest rate on your savings is of
little benefit if it is offset by excessive service charges. The
most common types of charges you may be required to pay
are front-end loads, redemption charges, early withdrawal
penalties, management charges and transaction fees.
Consult an expert to determine which plan best suits your
needs.

First Shelter For Assaulted Women In East York i
The YWCA of
Metropolitan Toronto is
opening the first shelter for
assaulted women and their
children in the City of East
York. The YWCA Women's
Shelter will host an open
house on Tues. Sept. 10th
from 1 to 5 p.m. There will
be an official ceremony at
1:30 p.m.
In partnership with the
Ministry of Housing and
Ministry of Community
MA Social Services, the
YWCA worked diligently
for two years to create a
necessary safe haven that
provides safety, and sup.
portive counselling to
women and children who
have experienced emo-
tional, physical and/or sex-
ual abuse.
"There is an enormous
need for shelters for
women and children who
are victims of assault in
our community. Most peo-
,ple in Metro Toronto don't
.realize there are only ten
shelters specifically for
!assaulted women with
children and none of those
are in East York.
Now with the opening of
the YWCA Women's
Shelter, there are 11
shelters in a community of
approximately 2.2. million
people. When one out of
every ten women is
assaulted by a husband,
boyfriend of common law
partner, it is obvious that
the need for safe havens is
unfortunately great," says
Marilda Tselepis, YWCA
Housing Director.
The YWCA Women's
Shelter was originally a
farmhouse. The Ministry of
Housing invested $1.8
million to renovate and ex-
pand the building. It can
shelter 25 women and
children who can stay up to
three months. It will be
open 24 hours a day, seven
days a week and be
operated by experienced
counsellors.
This also includes child
care workers who will at-
tend to the special needs of
the children who have

Bill Watt's Worlds
IN THE CLUBS:
There could hardly have
been a better choice than
Sally Ann Howes as an
opening attraction for the
Arcadian Court Supper
Club.
We have long admired
this star of the London and
Broadway musical stage
and deplored the fact that
she is probably best recall-
ed or thought of as the
young lady who replaced
Julie Andrews when she
left the cast of My Fair
Lady.
We admired her as a
stage performer but had
never had the opportunity
to hear her as a solo per-
former until the opening of
7bronto'a latest and, we
suggest, possibly best night
club.
Comparisons are or-
dinarily to be abhorred but
bear with us please as we
suggest that the years have
been kinder to Miss Howes
than to Julie Andrews. Her
previously and always
splendid voice seems to
have acquired even greater
strength and purity. It
soars in the manner of
Yma Sumac at her perfor-
ming and vocal peak but
retains the inflections and
interpretations of a very
young Hildegarde.
Her selection of material
is just right for the intend-
ed sophistication of the Ar-
cadian Court; a nice mix of
standards and lesser
known works by the
masters of popular music.
Accompanied only by the
piano of Tex Arnold, Miss

with such as Duke Ell-
ington's Solitude and Mar-
vin Hamlisch's The Way

Her best selection, for us,
was Sondheim's Losing My
Mind. We are not the fan of
Sondheim that we should
be perhaps but we like that
song and are quite in love

sings it. On reflection, we
think we're in love with
Miss Howes and look for-
ward to her return to the
room which she has launch-
ed so brilliantly.
A few words now about
the Arcadian Court. Visual-
ly it is a Thirties dream;
everything we thought we
were seeing in the old
musicals of Rogers and
Astaire. Readers with long
memories will recall the
Coconut Grove and the
Trocaders of Hollywood's
glamour years. Well, the
Arcadian Court is like them
and with an extra
touch ... class.
The staff is solicitous, the
Imen spotless and the flat-
ware properly arranged
and gleaming. The food
from the buffet is ... well,
it's safely Toronto and
served with efficiency if
not blan. The wine list is
satisfactory and how plea-
sant it is to have a servitor
of servitress at immediate
hand to poo.
As a night club, there are
as yet a few rough spots
which one supposes will
soon receive attention.
Doors to serving areas
should never be opened
while an artist is perform-
ing. Table numbers slauld
be printed rather than
handwritten, unfilled areas
of the room should be baffl-
ed to prevent echoes and
those patrons who must
answer nature's call during
a perfa mune should be
directed discreetly to doors
that do not flash light when
opened.
Speaking of directing,
might one suggest that
directions to the Arcadian
Court be placed throughout
the store? For those few
who might be unaware, the
Arcadian Court Supper
Club is on the eighth floor
of what is now the Hudson's
Bay Downtown store. It has
always been there but
when a new audience and
cusstom is being sought, a
few directions might not be
amiss.
One final suggestion, one
that is admittedly being
made by a Toronto old boy.
Instead of calling it the Ar-
cadian Court Supper Club,
why not call it simply
Simpson's or Simpson's
Room? Just a suggestion.
The next entertainers to
appear will be Leroy and
Donna Anderson from the
Tommy Hunter Show. We
look forward to seeing
them. We look forward to
becoming a regular at this
most attractive supper
club.
Why not join us?
ON RECORD:
George Fox is Canada's
best male singer.
Country music is not
really this correspondent's
muggatea and so our opi-
nions about Country and
Western singers should be
considered as those of one
who listens most critically.
Appreciation comes easily,
enjoyment, less so.
We both appreciate and
enjoy the musical offerings
of George Fox. Accept
then, our recommendation
of his album Spice of Life
(WFA).
It'3 not perhaps
memorable but is filled
with sound musical values
at the same time as it is
simple and uncomplicated.
Mr. Fox has found his own
formula - it's called double
beat but is really ac-
celerated country waltz -
and is wisely sticking to it.

Cemeteries BrinaHistory To Life!
by Norm Terry, Manager
of Pine Hills Cemetery,
Scarborough
We were all taught
"history" in school. We
reeled off dates and Roman
battles and sat exams.
It was only later on, as
adults, that we understood
that history is not dry and
remote, but all around us.
That, in fact, we are mak-
ing it every day.
Old builings in our city
are a visible part of our
chronicles. So, too, are
older members of the com-
munity who pass down old
customs and lore.
It seems that as the pace
of life speeds up, more and
more of us are reflecting on
our area's memcIrials and
old buildings. What we see
is that while our backs
were turned much chang-
ed. New buildings replaced
older ones and we seem
totally dedicated to pro-
gress-
That's why cemeteries
play such an important role
in preserving our history.
History in the making is
most visible at Pine Hills in
the Veteran's Memorial, to
which members of the
Royal Canadian Legion
Zone D-5 make a
pilgrimage each
September for a special
memorial service bonour-
ing the memories of former
legion members and their
families, including many
who fell in battle for their
country in both world wars
and the Korean conflict.
The old church
cemeteries in Scarborough
reflect, in the similarity of
design in their monuments,
an earlier era when the
community was more
.homogenous.
History in the making at
cemeteries like Pine Hills
is expressed in modern
society's variety of burial
Customs, such as the scat-
tering of cremated remains
in special cemetery
gardens and remembrance
markers on trees, an ex-
presion in some instances
of a family's care for the
environment.
Increasingly, we are see-
ing monuments in our
cemeteries that recall a
person's favorite pastime,
or work. One I saw recently
depicted a fisherman
casting his rod, another, in
the shape of a truck wheel,
tells passersby about the
person's profession.
Some monuments tell
tragic tales, of people kW -
ed in wars, in accidents, by
hanging. Within a short
time, they become part of
our history.
Pine Hills becomes more
of an open history book
with each year that passes -

for families with loved ones
interred in it, for curious
visitors studying the
monuments and their in-
scriptions and for profes-
sional and amateur
genealogists who pour over
our records in quest of
names.
Yes, there are the
seekers after the sensa-
tional in cemeteries, just as
there are among
newspaper readers, look-
ing for the unusual, the
names that made the
headlines.
Pine Hills has its share of
them, but mostly the
epitaphs on the markers
and monuments bring out
into the open sunlight, 365
days a year, names of
familes we've known, and
somehow forgotten over
the years.
Some day, the
monuments in Pine Hills
will produce the same
wonder on visitors' faces as
do those in the country
churchyards over the
graves of 18th and 19th cen-
tury pioneers.

Well, now I know why they
call it Labour Day. You've got to
figure out how many hours
you've got to labour to pay for
all the school clothing that your
kids need. Or say they need. We
figure that our son Kyle grew
two inches over the summer,
judging from how much ankle is
showing at the bottom of his
cords.
His sister Belinda teased him
something fierce until she tried
some of her fall things on, and
then there was really a major
hoo-ha. Their assorted shrieks
of dismay reminded me of my
wife Em's Wedding Dress Diet.
Em made a New Year's resolu-
tion last January to lose a few
pounds so she could fit into her
wedding dress again. Em was
successful, but Belinda and
Kyle have simply got a whop-
ping case of teenage -itis that
they won't get over for about
four years. In the meantime,
Kyle will be well-prepared for
floods.
Anyway, last week I talked
about energy-efficient lighting,
having recently come across a
pamphlet from The Hydro in my
basement ramblings. While I
probably won't save enough to
buy the kids' new wardrobe, you
really can save energy and
money by using energy-efficient
lighting.
In recent years there have been
big advancements in fluorescent
lighting technology. The long
standard fluorescent tubes that
you're probably familiar with
have been made smaller so that
they fit into standard light fix-
tures. Not only that, a 15 -watt
compact fluorescent bulb will
give you the same light as a
standard 60 -watt incandescent
bulb, while using 60 to 80 per-
cent less energy.
While it does cost more, the
compact fluorescent will give
you from five to nine years of
heavy use and more than pay for
itself as far as energy dollars
saved goes. You also save the
cost of buying replacement
bulbs.
For lights that are on for four
hours a day or more, the lower
energy consumption and dura-
bility of compact fluorescents
make a real difference - espe-
cially for fixtures that are awk-
ward to get at. Before you buy,
though, remember that compact
fluorescents are a little larger
than regular bulbs. Check your
fixture to make sure that you've
got adequate clearance.
Now, if they could just make
pants for teenagers that last as
long!
This newspaper, in conjunc-
tion with Ontario Hydro, is
bringing you Phil's Basement
to help "bring home" ideas on
how to save energy. To receive
the brochure "Bright Ideas
For Energy Efficient Light-
ing", call Ontario Hydro at I-

New tax saving tip for retirees
by Marc Vernier
Roger and Barb Smite arc
worried. They're worried be-
cause they will join more than
one million Canadiaps between
55 and 70 years old who arc
retiring over the next five years
and they are searching for the
best way to convert their sav-
ings into a stream of regular
income- Like their peers,
they're worried about the
threats that inflation, taxes and
interest rates pose to their retire-
ment income.
They've also seen the statis-
tics from tables which state
more than one in four individu-
als, aged 65 today, will still he
alive at 90. And they've heard
the sombre forecasts which
question the federal govern-
ment's capability to pay future
social security benefits

Until recently, RRIFs and an-
nuities were the only game in
town if Roger and Barb wanted
tax shheliered benefits to con -

their registered retirement sav-
ings plans into a regular in-

time, they will have a third fi-

This is the Life Income Ac-
count (LIA), an innovative
RRSP maturity option, which
provides income beyond age 90

the flexibility - like a RRIF - of
having access to funds upon

vantages of an annuity and a
RRIF, the LIA acts like an --ev-

Homecleaning
Service
Visiting Homemakers
Association ( VHA) has
launched a new homeelean-
ing service. This service is
not only for the handicap-
ped, frail or elderly, but is
being made available to all
residents in specific com-
munities on a fee for ser-
vice basis.
The program is designed
to be the optimal cleaning
service. The conventional
package is available:
cleaning kitchen and
required on short notice: with
the RRIF alone, there would be
no income after age 90. But, if
they use their $200.000 savings
for a $100,000 Life Income Ac-
count plus a $100,000 RRIF
instead of just the RRIF, the LIA
would continue to provide them
with more than $10,000 per
year after age 90 without im-
pairing their CPP (Canada Pen-
sion Plan) and other pension
income.
In addition to its longevity
and flexibility, the LIA shelters
retirement funds to the same
extent as a RRIF or an annuity:
hollers only pay tax on income
received: funds in the account
continue to cam interest free of
tax.
HON' THE LLA WORK -S
If Barb wishes to open a LIA
free of tax, she could do so b,,
simply converting a portion, or
all, of her RRSP The LIA re-
sembles a bank account in that
the deposit earns interest and
Barb has access to the funds for
withdrawal. Like an annuity, the
acaxhnt pays her a guaranteed
income payment at the frc-
qucncy she prefers for as long
as she lives. Another advantage
of the LIA is that she can choose
an option where the income will
continue to Roger should she
predecease him. However, if
money in addition to the income
is withdrawn, then the ongoing
monthly income will be reduced
accordingly. Upon request,
Barb can transfer her LIA to
another plan. When she dies,
any remaining account balance
will be paid to her bcmfwimv.
Generally in the time period
between 12 - 20 years after
issue, the monthly payments
will eventually exhaust the ac-
count, bw the LIA guarantees
income for life.
SHOP WISELY
Retirement is commonly re-
ferred to as the Golden ''cars.
At this time, people, like the
Smiths, face what may be the
largest investment decision of
their lives. Before making that
decision, they owe it to them-
selves to compare the benefits
of all the latest retirement op.
tions, like the LIA, to determine
which plan is best suited to their
health and lifestyle todav and
their plans for the future.
