Band Dance Great Success.

The big dance given by the Decor

last Wednesday evening was a decid-
ed success in every respect. The mu-
sic furnished by the band was SUI

than delighted and we wager that flu
ture dances held by this popular mu-
steal organization will be looked for
ward to with great pleasure. A good
band and good fire department are
two assets that any town needs and
DEBORAH is blessed with both. The
band boys realized about $125 on
their dance, and of course are very
greatful to all who helped them

To the field men. Dear Pard-

Another splendid month of

to congratulate you: But no
wonder, for hasn't the Cotton
States, with it's combined good

contract that is being offered the
insuring public?
Every time | read our 2O-Pay
Coupon policy; figure on the
triple option; read the emergency
draft, and note the fairness and
real benefits of our disability
clause my bump of pride takes
one big jump. This policy is un-
doubtedly the best answer to the
public's' cry for protection and
safety on the market.
Three agents coming to US last
month from old companies. and
acquainted with the unfairness
Of their old contracts, sold them
selves as soon as they read our
policy. Remember you are offer
ing your friends something new,
and not an old before-the-war
| policy, with only one talking
feature my company is not
the biggest, but modern, up
to-date policy that is proof
against criticism, and it is better
/ than anything you or could say
about it.
Best of all, in selling Cotton
States policies you don't have to
spend any time lodging your
/ fri -fifiss Esi.s, lighting law suits and
apologizing for estimates you
made that never come true. Ey.
erything in our policy is guaran-
teed. If you see it in our policy
IT'S SO.
1 do not wonder at the Cotton
States growing-it ought te
grow. You are doing fine, but
let's do better, and stick to il
until we sell more insurance than
the other fellow.
Study your work; map out your
plans and follow them system
atically; make every hour and
every day count toward results;
have the reputation of being a
hustler-don't think about the
weather being too hot or cold,
nor consider what men are
against you. For this matters
but little to the hustlers.
It's the age of Hustle-it's the
hustler's age and It's the field
man that puts the little extra
pressure; that adds few more
strokes after the other fellow
quits, and it seems the limit has
been reached that wins the race
for applications.
The President of the Cotton
States stands ready to help the
man with the rate book six days
in the week, to lend every possi-
BILE assistance along clean. sound
business methods, and is depend
ing upon you to bring up your
