10y DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS.
kM5 Today have gone over the
| Ill letters I have On hand from
all of you and some Of them
ln5sno me very sad.
Did you know that we can almost
all of us be judged by our features, as
to the sort of person We are?
Our chins tell whether we are
weak; our mouths can show whether
we are selfish or hard-hearted; our
nostrils indicate whether we are
generous; our eyes tell whether we
are deceitfaI or cunning.
And in many instances our hand
writing betrays just as many of our
characteristics as our features.
And so many of the letters l have
read tell we so plainly that the writ
ers are selfish, conceited, ill-tem-
pered, Indifferent to others. And
again-some of the letters have a
note of loneliness, of unloVed lives,
of homes where sorrow has been and
homes where there is little affection.
| am going to ask you to read each
others letters, and see where you can
add a note Of cheer or helpfulness.
And I am giving you pitiful little
plea from a little shut-in: let's make
the Post Card Club count for some
thing else besides a medium for rid
dies and questions.
We have discussed boys cooking
till there is nothing left to discuss.
Now let's get busy and choose this
for our MOTTO DO Something for
Somebody"
Lovingly,
AUNT ADDY.

KEEP PACE WITH TIMES
Advance of South Manifested Nowhere Greater Than
Here.

savannah's industries and institutions are daily
adding the progressive Righteousness spirit to their
enVable reputation for Clean honest and conserVa-
tice business methods. and one of her institu-
tions proves this to greater extent than her ne"
company the Commercial Life Insurance and Cas-
ualty Company
The methods adopted in the organizations of this
company have been commended by tinanciers and
insurance men the country over. Unlike some other
companies which have been organized in the last
several years. it launched without cent of COM
mission to stock statesmen; in other words, it is just
company of the most substantial and trustworthy
business men of Savannah and the Southeast who
by their records, have proven themselves worthy oil
any trust put in them They have seen the necessity
for Southern insurance company, organized along
the right lines and after careful study of the sue
cesses and mistakes of insurance companies for the
last fifty sixty years, the Commercial Life of Sa-
yannah came into existence. Ways and means were
figured to give the benefit to the policyholder
and the company through avoidance of such mistakes
and by adhering to the successful methods, accom-
plished this.
Every day people are learning that after ALL the
old adage, Honesty is the best policy is absolutely
true and it is being lived up to and more By
individuals. The adage has always been recognized
by numbers of who started out to work the most
good for the most people The methods and the bus
mess policy of the Commercial Life open to the
most critical inspection of federal state officers
and citizens of the South An officer of the company
a few days ago stated thta the companys object was
to go after the safe life insurance business of tn
South and not to write "wildfre" insurance which
only lasts year and then lapses causing loss
to both the individual and the company. He stated
that when poicyholder is entered their books {
their object to keep his there until death
maturity of the policy He recited instances showing
that in the life insurance business it is better to
slow than to go out with the idea of getting the bust
regardless of cost to the company or the policy
holder.
ION the whole, believe the Commercial Life is a
good clean, straight, conservative and yet wide
awake institution which will give much in insur-
ance returns the premiums warrant, and as far as
can learn from study of the principles of life insur-
ance this is as much any company can do regard
less of any attractively worded and decorated pol-
cies that may be presented to the insuring public
he said.
