RANKS FIRST.


Mt. Sterling, though known as
the best town in the State of Ken
lucky, has, through the general
agency of H. G. Hoffman, of the
State Mutual Life Assurance Co.,
of Massachusetts, attained a ma
tional reputation by that agency
leading all of that company's gen.
eral agencies during the month of
December, 1911. Not only that
record, but the business written
being 300 per cent. of the business
allotted them that month by the
company.
During the year Mr.. r. l..
Coleman, special agent of the
company from the above Office,
gained the distinction of standing
fifth among the soliciting agents
in the United States for the year
1911; first in the State of Ken
lucky and for the month of De-
cember second throughout the
United States.
To more thoroughly appreciate
this standing by this agency it
must be understood that general
agency of company is, as a rule,
only located in the cities such as
New York, Chicago, Cleveland,
etc., etc.
We tender our congratulations
and, as heretofore expressed in
these columns, our best wishes for
our (both of the managing editors
having the pleasure of being in
sured in this company continued
success at this '''Blue Grass" gen.
eral agency of this grand, old
company.
