It will depend primarily upon the total amount of debts outstanding as of the close of the taxable year, those arising currently as well as those arising in prior taxable years, and the total amount of the existing reserve.

A funeral director using our wholesale showroom had as one of his customers a man and wife from another city. When they saw our showroom they were so surprised that the funeral directors of this community could have access to such a wonderful display of caskets. They kept continually calling his attention to the fact, as in their town they either bought from a selection of three or four caskets, or generally from photograph. No wonder we have a feeling of satisfaction that we are able to give the people of this community a service that they get in very few communities, and at not one cent additional cost.
