MooFe-Brown WILLIAMSTON TAKES A STEP FORWARD Headquaters of The Mary land Life Established Here—What It means to a the Town and County- Agency in Hands of B. T. Cowper who is'lnter estedinthe Upbuilding of the Section Vhe insurance companies operat ing in North Carolina have done much for the State. Established agencies in the different la r Ke towns bare strengthened in a great meas uic the financial growth of those places. These coinpauies, planted on most substantial foundations of btains, money and energy, assist in erecting a broader financial struc ture which will stand as a ujonu- j mcnt to the progressive ness of the Olfl North State. Towns like Charlotte, Greens bofo, Raleigh and others are the centers of these agencies, but it remained for the Maryland Life Insurance Company, >f Baltimore, to try to help the eastern section of tlje Stßte and paeticularly Martin County. This innovation has come in the establishment of the General Agfncy for North Carolina at Williaraston. None of the larger towns in the East have been so distinguished and tbe people in Martin County must see what it means to be placed in line with the large centers of the State. The Maryland I.ife is an old line comipany, having been established in 1865 an£ has among its policy -ffiiKrfrs V h.'fg£"mimtffcr d i tire most | substantial and wealthiest men of I Baltimore. It is both piogressive j and conservative. The plan of j loans on good secuiity will be help , ful to this people, and a feature ! which can build and not drain this land other counties. The busine-s j men should realize what this means | and stand by the company which I has come for mutual aid. Another strong point is that the agency is in the hands of Mr. B T. Cowper, who is well known throughout the State as an insur ance man of marked ability. After mature deliberation, he planned to bring the company here, where he desires to lav the foundation for larger things for the people. He is already meeting with co operation which is an expression of apprecia tion for what he is undertaking The interests of the Company and people will not sufltr at his hands but will be carefully guarded. Eids Winter's Troubles To many, winter is a season ol | trouble. The frost-bitten toes and | fingern. chapped hands and lips,! chilJlains, cold-sores, red £nd rough ! skins, prove this.
