Century Club Hears Address by Furlong Speaker Discussed "Wills and Trusts" at American Home Meeting Raymond Furlong, of the Glrard Trust Company, Philadelphia, spoke on the subject "Willi and Trusts," before the meeting of the American Home department of the Century Club yesterday. Mm.

Roy W. Vorls, chairman, presided and introduced the speaker. The speaker began by saying that wills are historical documents which can be referred to five years or 100 years from now, and are probably the only historical document the majority of people ever write. A will Is an epilogue to the life of the individual, and the last word he has to give to his family, the speaker stated. Some people use a will simply to give vent to their feelings, he added.

Mr. Furlong stated that he sees no reason for secrecy between husbands and wives concerning the contents of wills. No one ever dies without leaving a will, said the speaker, for if the Individual dies without making a will the state makes one for him. The productive value of what one leaves is the thing first to oe consiaerea making a will, he said, and by leaving it In the' hands of someone experienced, such as a trust company, it will have more productive value. The speaker, in discussing the fact that some women feel that it Is a reflection on her if the will Is not left in her hands, rather man in a trust company, said that this should not be the case, for there Is more protection when a will is Jen wira me latter.

The trust may either be broad and lenient, or narrow ana swici, cording to the speaker. In concluding, Mr. Furlong said that everyone should have a will, no matter what it is, and none should attempt to write his own will. Open House Series Begins at W.C. A.
