Major Drumhiller, of Logan, has
been appointed an adjusting agent for
the Springfield insurance company.
His pay will be six dollars a day and
expenses. This is better than filing
timber claims and working up contests.
the Majors law business has been turned
over to his former partner, Mr.. Bodwell.
Chief.
The Springfield is a good company,
and believes in fair and liberal treat
ment, and we believe Mr.. Drumhiller
will make fair-minded adjuster.

We hope so, too; and with little eff
fort it can be done. Bro. Lowe is on
hand for his part of the business, and if
all others who should be interested will
put their shoulders to the car, we may all
have the pleasure of seeing a fair that
will do to tune our horns about.
