Where are they?
Can you tell right at this moment where to find your
bonds, stock certificates, insurance policies and other valu
able papers, often needed in a hurry? Perhaps they are
in your desk drawer—or they may be in your office safe
—or possibly lying carelessly around the house.
If your valuable papers are in any of these places there
is a risk of loss as well as uncertainty of quickly finding
them when needed. But if they are in one of our safety
deposit boxes you are aways certain of their location.
They are accessible to you instantly, and to you alone and
they are safe from fire, theft and carelessness.
