In case OF additional insurance,
change Of form, mortgage, vacancy, re-
moval, or repairs it is necessary to have
the agent approve the same by endorse
ment on the policy.
Insurance on merchandise does not
cover furniture and fixtures nor COM
mission goods on storage, unless specif-
ically mentioned in policy
Take an inventory at least once a
year and keep merchandise account
showing all purchases and sales. In
case OF fire you must furnish proof OF
amount Of loss.
Do not ever insure. An insurance
policy is not a check upon the com
pany's treasury, but bond intended to
indemnify you against actual loss, and
under this bond actual values only are
paid upon duly certified proofs OF loss.
During fire you are required tonse
your best efforts to protect your proper
ty, Your policy covers loss by fire and
water damage, but not property stolen
during removal.
Stock or furniture endangered by adj
joining fires should be removed when the
danger is imminent. Companies pay
cost Of removal and damages.
After fire, call on agent with your
policy and report loss; then act as you
would If without Insurance.. j. e., pro-
tect the property, separate damaged
goods from those not damaged and put
property in best possible condition.
When you insure, remember that
your interests can be best protected by
an agency which represents companies
that are known for their square deal
ings and their financial strength.
1t is important that the written por-
tions Of all policies covering the same
property read exactly alike.
The above is worth knowing and re-
membering. Better cut out and paste
up in your place OF business. This in
formation was given us by Carter &
White, the hustling, wide awake insur-
ance and real estate firm.
