Smith of the National Board of Fire Underwriters rang a new change on the phrase, by making it the "cornerstone of com merce." the. public usually tninKs of nre i insurance as protection against loss of physical property by fire. The part played by insurance through the in vestment of its reserves and cash assets in other business and indun tries is not frequently mentioned. Secretary Louis T. Moore of the Wilmington, North Carolina, Cham ber of Commerce called attention to the investment side . of insurance when writing a letter of appreciation to the Carolina Insurance Company which submitted the most favorable cf 18 bids received for $100,000 in City of Wilmington bonds.. There is no difference between in surance assets helping to upbuild great industry and helping to build a greater city. In both cases, assets that stand behind the protection to business or the community are used to enlarge productive enterprise. Thus does -insurance become the "cornerstone of commerce" referred to by President Smith. Without in surance, today, the basis of commer cial credit would be practically wiped out. Anything which interferes witty sound insurance policies, . automat ically weakens our'credit structure. Carfare. 'For hours they had been together on her front porch. The moon cast its tender gleam down on. the young and handsome couple who sat strangely far apart. He sighed. She sighed. Finally "I wish ' I had money, dear," he said. "I'd travel." Impulsively, she slipped her hand into his; 'then, rising swiftly, she sped into the house.' , Aghast, he looked at his hand. In his palm lay a nickel. Of Course! "Hey!" yelled the policeman. you can t park there ! ; "Why can't I?" exclajjned the be wildered motorist. "The sign there says 'Fine for Parking'." Fifty-Fifty. People who marry for money don't seem to get what they married for, and neither do all those who marry for love. .- '' , sv One Who Seldom" Speaks.
