OUR SELLING POINT, When we ask you to insure with us: WE DO NOT SAY, "Insure with us. because we used to go to school with you." WE DO NOT SAY, "iDsure with us, because we are just starting in, and need the business." WE DO NOT SAY, "Insure with us, because we have the largest agency." BUT WE DO SAY, "Insure with us, because we can place your business with the largest and most liberal companies in the world at the same price you are paying for protection in an inferior company." An Insurance Policy Is Like a Watchman And money spent for insurance is not wasted if you have no fire any more than the watchman's wages are wasted if no burglary is attempted on your property. For in the first place you are pjr-ng for PROTEC TION, the same as you are in the last. Your hire a watchman because you have confidence in him and for the same reason you buy insurance be becaus of the confidence you have in and the experience of the agency. V -.v. PHONE No. 2J1 ;i.
