INSURANCEAGENCY
WINS 5000 PRIZE
HUNTER BROWN RECEIVES
CHECK FROM UNITED STATES
FIDELITY AND GUARANTY
COMPANY FOR BEST ANNUAL
RESULTS.

The Fisher Brown Insurance Agen-
cy, general agents for the United
States Fidelity and Guaranty Com
pany, Baltimore, received from that
company on Saturday a check for
$500, one of six prizes awarded to
agents in the United States and Can
ada, for the best results obtained dur
ing the past twelve months.
Hunter Brown, who is at the head
Of the Fisher-B Insurance Agen-
cy, is known throughout the south
as one of the most energetic and pro-
gressive men in the insurance BUSH
ness, and his agency has always
ranked very high in the work it
has accomplished for the United
States Fidelity and Guaranty Com
pany, which during the bank failures
and following period of business de-
preston in Pensacola, paid out prac-
tically one hundred thousand dollars,
which was put into circulation here,
and did much towards producing a
normal business tone at time when
many other cities in the south were
facing panic.
The volume Of business which has
been done by the Baltimore company,
through the Fisher-Brown Insurance
Agency, shows very conclusively that
this company has a growing faith in
Pensacola and West Florida. The
Fisher Brown Agency has represent
ed the United States Fidelity and
Guaranty Company for seven years,
and the $500 check received yester-
day by Mr.. Brown is only renewal
of the confidence which that company
has shown on a number Of occasions
in the local agency and the commu-
nifty. The fact that the company is
one Of the largest in the United States
engaged in liability insurance and
bonding, and that the prize winners
for the best annual results were con-
fined to six representatives, indicates
not only the splendid business con-
Quoted during the past year by the
Fisher Brown insurance agency, but
the fact that Pensacola is rapidly
taking its place as one of the big
business centers of the south.

USING PASSES To.
INFLUENCE COURTS

HOW TT IS DONE BY THE LOUIS

TOLD BY EVERY LETTER
READ IN INVESTIGATION.
(By gibson GARDNER.)

Washington, May 13.--How rail-
road uses passes to influence courts
and legislatures is Interestingly
shown in series of letters just read
into the records of the investigation
now being conducted by the Inter
state Commerce Commission into the
affairs of the Louisville & Nashville
r. R. The correspondence fills a
couple of trunks, but almost any let
ter picked at random tells its own
story.
Here is one, for instance, signed c..
w. Metcaf, to Mr.. Warfeld, who,
during 1913, had charge of the free
pass department of the L. & N. CIV.
H. Ingram" says the latter, "has
asked me for transportation for his
wife and daughter Annie to Louis

tically every case in our favor that

great many small ones. Besides, he
is one of the Bell County jury COM
missioners and / think perhaps / will
be in position, by getting this favor
for INN, 20 get better class of ju-
rors." The pass was issued Febru-
airy 10, No. 1902.
A letter from J. W. Lodsden, Supt.
to Mr.. B. NJ. Starke, General Man
ager at Louisville, dated May 1, 1913,
at Evansville, sends a request from
Trainmaster Wise relative to getting
transportation in Kentucky for J. T.
Alexander, president of the leading
banks of Hopkins County. "Mr.
Alexander's testimony" says the
General Banager, Gin the Western
Union case at Louisville, under
stand was about the best of what
Judge Humphrey was pleased to call
the farming crowd" The letter GOES
on to tell of Alexander's wide ac-
quaintance and popularity and possi-
BILE use in lawsuits. "By reason of
his great acquaintance he can be of

neys in jacksonville in that if unre-

SPEAKS WELL FOR VAN
BUREN COUNTY TEACHERS

Ninety-two teachers from Van
Buren, County are attending school at
Kalamazoo Normal this summer and
many are attending other institutions
of learning. This means that half of
the teaching force of this county are
enjoying CD this hot summer in
study. New legislation is partly re-
sponsible for the large number. Ger
tifcates are not now granted until
unless the applicant in addition to
applicant shall have had at least six
weeks work at some normal. Ger
tifcates are not renewed this year
other requirements shall have done a
summer school of normal work dnr-
ing the life of the certificate then
held and next summer this require
ment is raised and made two sum-
mers. For these reasons some at
tend who otherwise might be tempted
to do something else these hot days.
Van Buren County ranks third in
number enrolled at Kalamazoo being
exceeded by Kent and Kalamazoo.

Our new typesetting machine has
at last arrived and is in place. The
machine arrived last Thursday, and
Friday morning Mr.. C. G. Roush, an
expert machinist from the Intertype
shops arrived to install the machine.
He started to unpack the various
parts Friday afternoon, and had the
job completed and ready for business
Saturday noon, when the first slug
cast in any newspaper Office in Paw
Paw by its own machine was made.
He has been with us during the week
to assist in getting every part adj
justed and the operator started. The
paper this week is set on the new ma
chine. 1t is new business however,
which takes some time to master, so
this is hardly a fair sample Of the
paper we expect to publish after
everything is organized and we are a
little more familiar with the opera
tion of the machine.
The above cut gives a good idea OF
the appearance Of the machine. AS
heretofore stated, it is a Model "A'
Intertype, a standard machine anC
one of the very best manufactured
complete in every detail. Very few
people have any idea of typesettine
machine. 1t is a wonderful piece OF
machinery weighs $500 pounds
and is almost human in operation
The public is cordially invited at any
time to call and see the machine ir
operation. We naturally feel PROUD
of this latest addition to our equip.

ANOTHER BIG SLASH
IN THE FORD PRICE

Well, it has happened. Another
big cut in the price of Ford Automo-
biles. Many predicted that the price
would raise for the coming year, but
instead Of a raise the price has been
slashed to $3.50 for the coming year,
beginning August 1. Packer G. Gid
dings, the popular County agents for
the Ford cars have an attractive ad.
in this issue, that will be of special
interest to every prospective custom
er for a car. Packer & Giddings are
the most successful auto statesmen in
the country. This latest reduction in
the price of cars will increase their
popularity and success as county
sales agents. Read their advertise
ment in this issue. 1t reads good
whether you want a car or not.

CHAUTAUQUA PRO-
GRAM BEST EVER
Strong features will be pre-
sented everyday. Special
features for the boys and
girls. Same platform
manager.

Many complimentary comments
are heard on the excellence of the
program arranged for the coming
chautauqua. DR.. C. f. Varney who
has had years Of experience with
Chautauquas and Lyceum bureaus,
states that the program announced
for 1916 Paw Paw Chautauqua is
the best general program he has yet
seen. Every days program will be
strong, and greater interest should
be manifested in this event this year
than ever before. The grounds will
be located on the Old Court House
square, right on main street, which
will please many who have always
found it a hardship to walk to the
Thayer grounds. Henry Shefer, To-
cal manager is working hard to COM
plete all the preliminary arrange
ments and everything will be ready
on time. The program will be great
the location good and everything
should combine to make this the
greatest of all Paw Paw chautau-
quas. Let every one boost now just
as hard as they can, for the time will
soon be here. August 10Th to 26th
is the date, both days inclusive. Buy
your tickets early and offer what en-
couragement you can to the manage
ment. Tickets are on sale at most Of
the business places. If you haven't
already promised to buy Of someone
else, The True Northerner will be
pleased to furnish you with tickets.
A special program is planned this
year for the boys and girls. Every
boy and girl within reach of the
chautauqua will want to be in on
this. Further details of the boys and
girls program will be given later.
1t will be good news to friends of the
chautauqua to know that Mr.. Zim-
norman, the efficient and courteous
platform manager of last year, will
be with us again this year.
