THEN Gluey Paste is used once it will stick for good. That is why it is used exclusively in over half the public schools in the United States. No other paste embodies such exceptional "paste qualities."

Gluey Paste deserves its popularity with school authorities. It serves them more efficiently than any other paste and the cost is less.

If you have not used Gluey, we will send you a big tube for 10c-postage and mailing charge. Or tell us the amount you use and we will send you prices.

Are YOU Approaching
the Dead Line?

Persons can get insurance only when they don't want it. When they actually need it, they can't get it. "Too late" are harsh words.

If sickness and accident were a habit, we would all know how to provide for the financial burdens that follow in their wake.

But they are too generally regarded as natural events in the life of the other fellow, and only vague possibilities in our own.

Every teacher begins his work in September with one chance in five that he will lose at least a part of his salary, if not all of it, through sickness or accident, before the close of the term. And these figures are not idle guess-work, but are supported by the actual experience of every insurance organization.

Most teachers are confident of accumulating a snug sum before they grow old, THAT IS THEY MEAN TO, but few of them at age of sixty have anything to show for their life's work. WHY? Because their saving was all done TOMORROW.

Life is only a short span. Old age will be upon you all too soon. What then? Will you be able to look with confidence upon the possible loss of your health, your position, or upon dependency in your latter days, or will these things hold nothing but fear for you?

The New Year is upon us--the time for making, and keeping, good resolutions. Why not resolve to begin building for the future today? Why not let the E. B. A. help you do the paying when you are ill, or meet with an accident, thereby conserving your own funds? That's ECONOMY-or THRIFT-or whatever else you may choose to call it.

Reach for your pen this minute. Ask us to send you full information of the splendid work we are doing among teachers everywhere. Put the burden of proof upon us.

How I Traveled to Europe and Back for $170"

The Three Prize Winning Stories

More than 3300 tourists during 1924 took advantage of the "Cunard Vacation Specials"— initiated last season--and traveled to and from Europe in our appropriately rearranged and specially reserved Third Cabin accommodations.

As a result a vast number of spontaneous appreciative letters reached us and we decided to offer three cash prizes of the total value of $600.—for the three best narratives describing these European trips.

These three stories are now published in booklet form
and will be mailed free to all interested in similar tours.

In establishing the

Cunard Vacation Specials

our aim was to afford Teachers, Students, College men and women, Professional people and kindred Tourists an opportunity of visiting Europe comfortably and in seemly and congenial company, at the lowest possible cost.

The same travel facilities, but in a more extended form, will be

available on Cunard Liners during 1925. The accommodations offered include comfortable, wellventilated private staterooms for two or three persons; many baths; large dining halls; lounges and libraries; plenty of deck space for exercise and recreation; excellent and abundant menus.
