Mrs. Ralph Wood.

Freda Hall Wood was born near
Leon, Iowa, July Z, 1895. She was
the daughter of E. P. and Flora
Hall and the youngest of six children.
When six years of age she moved
with her parents to their present
home, where she spent the remand
er of her life, except three years,
during which time the family resid-
ed in New Mexico. She united with
the Christian church in the year
1915. On October 80, 1915, she was
united in marriage to Ralph Wood,
and after a short stay in Colorado,
returned to her fathers home, where
she died on December 1, 1915. All
that loving hands and medical skill
could do was done, but to no avail.
Two sisters and one brother preced-
ed her, and she leaves the lonely hus-
band, father, mother and two BROTH
ers, Harry of Lucas and Roy of We'll
don, besides host of friends and
other relatives.
Freda was bright, loving girl,
possessed with an unusual amount of
energy and thrift, which often car
ried her beyond her strength, and
unto the very last she was hopeful,
making plans for the future, when
her strength would return. The re-
membrance of these characteristics
will be an inspiration to those who
shall miss Freda most.
Funeral services were held at the
home on the afternoon of Dec. 8, con-
Quoted by H. G. Barr, of Des Moines,
pastor of the Weldon Christian
church, and was largely attended by

Again the Insurance Law.

The attempt of the last legislature
to standardize the fire insurance bust
ness in Iowa is still meeting with
criticism and opposition more than
with favor over the state. The
chances are that the failure of the in
surance companies themselves to CO.
operate with the state insurance COM
mission il the readjustment of insur-
ance conditions to make them salts
factory is as much trouble as any de-
fects in the law.
The insurance rating law was a
move in the right direction. Of that
we are convinced. 1t was intended to
correct and stop an abuse of insur-
eance business that led to the favor
ing of large and influential business
concerns at the expense of smaller
and less influential concerns. That
is, under the former conditions, a
big concern, owned or Controlled by
someoe who knew how to manipulate
the wire of influence to get lower
rating by the rating bureaus, or who
could get local agents to rate his
property at lesser rate to get his
business, had a large advantage over
others who did not pull wires or
work sharp deals. If such deals
could not be worked with Iowa COM
panies they could be worked with
outside companies. The result of
this practice was claimed to be that
Iowa companies were compelled to
cut and slash rates to hold Iowa
business or to be driven out of the
field entirely.
1t is a fact that during the pen
dency of this particular insurance
bill at the last session of the legis
lature there did not appear to be any
insurance interests on hand to favor
it. No insurance lobbyists were &C
tive in it's behalf. Iowa insurance
interests seemed to think it would be
a good law, and the same kind of a
law in other states was reported as
satisfactory.
1t was not difficult therefore, for
members of the senate or house to
make up their minds that Iowa laws
ought to prevent insurance discrim-
nations and pirating the same as
laws prevented other determinations
and throat cutting to ruin COMPETE
ton. The measure passed by small
majority in either house, and any un-
worthy influences that might have
been favoring such a law did not ap-
pear above the surface at any time.
We do not agree therefore, with
the oft-repeated claim that "the in
sursnce interests put one over on
the legislature that time"
The fact remains, however, that
the new law is not yet working out
satisfactory. Insurance agents con-
tinue to howl against it, for it has
disarmed some of them who used
rate cutting as their chief means of

The Gainesville Mine.

Messrs. Thurston and Larston, gen.

week looking over the mine with a

They were shown over the proper

ed the light plant, we understand.
What their decision may be in regard
to the purchase of the plant has not
been made public.
Messrs. Nevin and Doubleday, both
of the Nevin Coal Co., with principal

How to Win an Annual Income of
$1,000 q Year by Saving
S. q Week.

This is no pipe dream for it is
backed by the American Bankers
Association and described in the
January American Magazines:
Suppose man earning $23 a
week went to the American Bankers
Association to find out their plan
to give him an income of $1,000 a
year. When he told them he could
save IS a week they would send him
to a savings bank.
"He would place his IS and get a
pass book. At the end Of six months
he would be credited with $3.50. By
the end Of the year he would have
$262.6O, by depositing IS weekly
and drawing four per cent after six
months.
cat this very interesting time, he
would consult the cashier of the saw
ings bank and tell him that he wish
ed to draw $1,000 and invest it in a
safe real estate mortgage paying 6
per cent interest. The cashier would
tell him where to 60 to get the in
vestment and just how to make it.
Having made the investment, at
the end of the fourth year of his say
ing, the young man would look for
ward to saving, the first six months
Of the fifth year, the following: First,
of course, his.Fegular weekly deposit
of IS, or $3.50; second, the six
months interest at 4 per cent on
$123.89 (the amount left after he
had drawn out $1,000, which would
amount to $2.46; third, the interest
at 6 per cent, earned by his real es-
tate mortgage, or $50. This would
make a total Of $162.46, added to
the $123.89 left in the bank after
drawing out the $1,000, and the total
would amount to $452.08-almost
half enough to buy another $1,000
mortgage with.
The tracing of the growth of this
mans savings would prove very fas-
cinating reading, but it is too leng
thy for these columns. At any rate,
he would be able to buy his second
$1,000 mortgage at the end of the
seventh year. After this, the inter-
est earnings on his bank deposits and
on his two mortgages would amount
to more than half of his weekly saw
ing from his salary.
ut would not be very long after
this before he would arrive at the
point where he could buy the $1,000
mortgages with greater frequency. If
he continued the plan for twenty-five
years he would own fourteen mort
cages and have bank account
amounting to $761.33. BY using the
accumulated interest on these two,
together with the regular IS weekly
saving, he would at this time be able
to buy $1,000 mortgage every six
months.

working up business. But property

working up business. But property
owners are also bitterly complaining
against the law in most parts of the
state. Most unjust and idiotic rat
ings given some properties, especial
ly in the smaller towns indicate that
such places are still made to pay the
higher rates so that the properties in
larger cities can have lower rates
that they can afford to pay. There is
a suspicion that small towns are
bearing more than their share of in
surance expense, just as they did un-
der the old law, while we know of
some towns in which properties are
paying from 25 to 100 per cent more
for insurance than was paid by the
same parties before the new insur-
ance law prevented agents or others
from departing from the rates made
by some irresponsible boy, sent out
from a rating bureau to inspect such
towns.
The state commissioner is able
and honest. He is showing no COM
panies or concerns favoritism. He
believes the new law is along the
right lines. He will enforce read
justment of rates wherever there APP
pears to be injustice. Insurance COM
panies are not patting him on the
back as good fellow-we know all
this. But when his annual report is
made on January list the state will
know exactly what the insurance
business has been in this state under
the first six months of the new law.
If the insurance companies have
used the new law to flea Their their
nests with Millions then the law is
doomed. And we are not sure but
that is what the insurance people
want-Denison Bulletin.

by this time he would have
reached his forty-seventh year, pro-
vided he started saving when he was
twenty-five. Suppose he continued
Until he was fifty years of age. At
this time, he would own $4,000 in
6 per- cent mortgages, and have
hank account amounting to $779.22.
He could easily retire then. Figure
the income from his capital. Four
per cent a year on S779.22 would
amount to S3117. Six per cent
year on $4,000 is 5000. Add them
and you find that he receives an an
nual income of $1051.17 or $20.21 a
week.

a. m. He had saddled horse and
gone to the pasture to get the cattle
and about o'clock the horse return
ed to the house without the boy; his
parents knowing that something had
happened, went at once to the pas
4ture where they found him lifeless.
They called medical aid at once but
thew found that his neck had been
broken and the supposition is that he
had fallen or had been thrown from
the horse and death was probably in
Simultaneous. This was a terrible
shock to his parents and the COM
runity in general, having left the
house in his usual good health, and
in less than an hour to be found life
less. He was a boy who was dill
gent in school and industrious at
home, always ready to help bear the
burdens of the home. Mrs. Rumley
used every effort to make him feel
the tender love of mother. 1t IS
rad indeed for him to be called
when so young but after all death Is
rot what we SO often think. Il has
it's horrors and some day we must
all feel the sting Of it, but beyond
tho grave the storms of life cease.
When called in childhood as in this
case he will never face the trials and
disappointments gor sorrows that
come to those who live out their
allotted time. When home is sur
