INSURANCE a FINE INVESTMENT

Americus Agents Continue Doing Big
Business.
It would seem that after all these
years, and the amount of insurance
written in this section, that the materi.
al would be exhausted. But such is
not the fact, for in addition to what Ia
written by Americas sgents, travelling
agents pick up some business as we'll.
Every day thousands of dollars are
written as prote ction to families, new
contracts to life insurance being ad ded
ell the time. The Americus agents are
all doing we'll, writing thousands Of
dollars every day.
