The 'word "guarantee" has been misused ' until it has lost its meaning. Dishonest people have been "guaranteeing all sorts of things from pills to political platforms until most men think that a "guarantee" is only a bluff. In spite of this a guarantee is a legal under- taking and when given by a responsible firm or person is a contract collectable by law. Here is the true definition of a guarantee: "To guarantee any subject of a business transaction is to make one's self legally answerable for its being exactly as repre= sented." a 3 y It is in the full legal sense of the word that we guarantee the various features of.ouf policies. ? 4 We guarantee the Cash Values : policies. 5 We guarantee the Paid-up Policy Values endorsed orl policies. i.
