Hail Insurance in Strong Com.
pany.


The Home Fire Insurance
company, of New York, the
strongest company of the kind
in the country has added line
of hail insurance for crops to
their business and the Pageland
Insurance and Realty Company
has the agency for this company.
Hail insurance heretofore has
not been very satisfactory
for the reason that only small
or local companies carried it,
and in case Of general destruc-
ton the company could not
pay the damage and remain in
bssinesS. This strong company,
with millions capital, can pay
for all the damage that is likely
to occur in several states, how
ever, and anyone who insures
his crop against hail with this
company may feel sure that the
company will be able to pay
the damage. The cost is small
and nearly every man can have
his crop protected by insurance
if he will. Mr.. A. f. Funder-
burk will be glad to discuss the
matter with you and quote you
rates.

BAPTIST, J: M: Sullivan. Pastor.
We appreciate the kindness of
Bro. Quick in filling our regular
Sunday morning appointment
at Pageland last Sunday. AZ
number have already expressed
themselves as being highly
pleased with the sermon.
1t was the writer's good for
tune to be in the ordination
service of Bro. ]. Frank Funder-
burk at Dudley last Sunday
morning. This service was a
real mountain top" experience
to us all. Bro. Funderburk's
experience and cali to the
Ministry was of the clearest and
best we have ever heard, in fact
il reminded us OF the experience
of Gideon" In days of old.
To him it was just as clear and
plain. After the Examination
prayer aud laying on of hands
Bro. D. A. Brown, of White Store,
n. {. preached the sermon.
Taking as his text Paul's
advice in Timothy as recorded
in 2 Timothy 4:l2; laying
special emphasis on Preach the
Word" The sermon was clear
logical and biblical making a
profound impession on all who
heard it.
After this Communion service,
9nd free will offerins- kskl
Aged Ministers amounting $6.40.
1t was remarkable TO see the
large audience as attentive thru
all these services of more than
two and half hours.
We must add that the success
of these services were due
largely to the wise planning of
their pastor Bro. B. s.. Funder-
burg.
May the Lord of the harvest
hear and answer our prayer in
sending forth more of our
young men into His harvest.

WHAT WILL 1T BEq

The workmens compensation measure has
been up for consideration in the state senate this
week, although the bill under advisement
is vastly different than when first drawn and
printed. There will be hard fight before the
measure is enacted and it wouldn't surprise me
to see it passed without the safety clutch and re-
ferred to the people for vote in 1916 thus post
poning its going into effect for the next two years
AS far as have been able to learn believe that
nearly all the big firms that would be affected
want a law and just one that will be fair to all
They realize that workmen's compensation is
thing and all states will have it, and eventual
ly the nation will also. Such laws do really
in the way of protecting the worker than any
other agency When an employer has to pay a
good round sum to injured employe, you will
find that the time he looks for himself by
taking steps to prevent accidents, and all of this
makes for the good of those who have to work
with their hands for existence 1t may be pos
sible that law will be evolved by the present
legislature that will be satisfactory to all con-
cerned, and go into effect in the near future but
it don't look like it to 1t would be vastly bet
ter to have no law at all than one that could be
made catspaw and to favor only one side. Labor
is vitally interested in the question and should
keep close watch on the happenings at the state
house in this connection.

DRUG STORES MAY FLOURISH.

The situation the proposed law for the en-

house has practically opened the door for drug
stores to go lar they like in liquor selling,
and if the senate agrees, one may be prepared TO
do drinking in front OF the soda fountain instead
OF a mahogany counter. AS far as | am concerned

up will end is hard to tell 1t is understood there
fine lot OF Jokers in the bill it stands.
and there is merry row on among the Republican
brethren that comprise the legislature The whip
lash is being swung pretty freely and the buck
ers may be forced into line in due time II has
been said that the anti-saoon leaders don't want
real dry bill enacted at this session, SO that Jobs
can be retained and fight put up in two years.
as the picking is easy. Either have prohibition
law that prohibits let the people have another
say to what they want. 1t is safe to say that
if the question could be voted on within the next
month in Colorado, the verdict would be vastly
different, although there would have to be as
surance given that the liquor business would be
different lines.

Now that Secretary Hickey, Eli Gross and tfff
other labor boys who were arrested in conneetio4
with the Huerfano county indictments have been
admitted to bail in the of $4,000 each for the

cessive under the circumstances They won't run
away, and many of the opinion that persecu-

those having the matter in charge. 1t is under

more to the advantage of those who oppose organ

AS was predicted. some Republican members
OF the legislature pushing all the freak bills
handed them that have for an object the repeating
OF labor laws and measures heretofore enacted
But most OF these freaks are getting the cIeaver
where it does the most good. The latest was the
barber examination law. The high brows seem TO
have hobby to belt that law and the force
against usually comes from those who are long on
hair and short on brains. | have often wondered
why it is that the average Colorado law maker of
Republican extraction takes such delight in hit
ting that measure. 1t seems to be the general
impression on the hill that there will be an oper
season against labor measures. II the Republican
dealers want 10 hold down the Jobs in Colorado
