You may not believe in Insurance

we are here just the same.
We are constantly striving to ira-
prove our Accident Policies and at
the present time know that they are
the nearest to perfection of any in the
world.
You don't expect an accident-if you
did it wouldn't be an accident-Wlth
one out of every FIVE persons injured
last year, can you be sure that you
will be one of the other four?
Ever know that SO out of every 100
accidents are caused by other peoples
carelessness?
Foresight is better hitching post
than luck-you are not accident proof!
Don't you want to be relieved of all
worry on thtse scores end others, too
numerous to mention? OF course you
dot
An ounce of prevention is worth g.
pound Of cure and a death bed re-
pentance won't help you financially
Twelve per cent OF cur population
die by the accident route!
Remember automobile accidents hap ,
pen every day and you might be in
one of them.

sORRY, But CAN'T HELP TT.

We understand that one of our good
friends is very much angry with US
On account of what we said about the
location of the Jail, and has even gone
so far as to remark that The Herald
and News can never again enter the
door of the dwelling. We are sorry,
but We can't help it. We rather
thought after reading what we had
written that it was rather too much
Of an apology for what we did say.
We have absolutely no personal in
terest in the matter. We have no lot
% offer for the new site, and We Go
not want to purchase the present site
even at a sacrifice price. So far as
we were informed all the people who
were offering sites were personal
friends and should know that we
have no desire to do them any in
inquiry. We have no personal inter-
est in the people who live and own
residences adjoining any of the pro-
posed new sites We did not mention
any Of the proposed new sites or un-
dertake to say which of them in our
opinion was the most desirable,
though we have said SO privately and
would not mind saying so publicly in
the paper, but did not because We did
not want to have the appearance of
trying to influence in favor or against
any Of the proposed sites. We did
say that We thought it would Gbe a |
mistake to change the location from ,
the present site. We desire to re-
peat that opinion, and we think there
are good and sufficient reasons why
it would be mistake to change the
location One, the additional expense
it would entail. Another, none of
the sites offered gave as much land
as the county now owns. Another, it !
rs not desirable to have the Jail on .
one of the most prominent streets OF
the city We did not. mention this
nor the injury it would do to the
residential property adjoining.
A Jail is not desirable place, ex-
cept to the jailer Or the sheriff r.
is not building you would care to
have adjoinisg your residence. Not
that there is any objection to the
sheriff or the jailer as a neighbor.
Let us ask our friend, who is offend
ed abou+ our contention to let the
Jail remain where it is, how he would .
like for his neighbor to sell the lot
adjoining his residence and have the
county erect TIE Jail on it. He, no
doubt. would think it an outrage. :,
What's the difference, only it's the,
other fellow who happens to live next
door. Now, we did not mention any
Of these things in what we said, out
placed our position on the ground
that the county had ample grounds
and good location at the present
property and that the Jail should be-
built right there. That's all there's
10 it. That's what we think And
We said it as gently as We could.
Sorry if it displeased any one, but
can't help it. We feel it our duty to
say what we did and we said it. It !
may have influence or it may MT.
That is not our concern.

@. McR< HoImes N F.ance.

Very interesting news spread over
the city Saturday just after it had be-
come known that Mr.. r. McC. Holmes
had received word that Owen Holmes
was among the arrivals in France of
the United States marines. Tn fol-
lowing message to Mr.. Robert
Holmes will be read with a great deal
of interest by the citizens of this
community:
Word has just been received of
the safe arrival in Europe OF Owen
McRee Holmes, United States Marine
Corps. As his next of kin you will
no doubt be glad to lecrn that he has
crossed the ocean safely, and that he
is now ready to fight that "the world
may be made safe for democracy"
You are no doubt very proud of the
fact that he is serving in France.
You probably will be pleased to put
the card we are sending you in your
front window. 1t will distinguish
your home from others in the neigh
borhood It means that man from
your home is giving his all to his
country.

1t was known to only limited
aamber that young Holmes had en-
listed, so quietly did he proceed,
Some people thought he had just gone

heard that "OWen Holmes is in
France" Now that he is there, with
others before and more to follow, the
news from that country will be watch
ed fol with eagerness by many in

others a chance who are equally
qualified to fill the office. lie

LEVEE TO BE COMPLETED
IN NEXT TEN DAYS.

The new city levee in West
Hickman is nearing completion,
after months of work on the part
of the Dixie Contracting Co. 1t
Is safe to say there is not a bet
ter piece of levee in the country.
This massive embankment pro-
tects all of West Hickman, to-
gether with the Mengel Box fac
tory. Had the levee not been
built at this time, there is little
doubt that we should have lost the
above mentioned factory, which IN
a business way would have been
"a great setback to the town, and
property in the west end would
have been worth about 15c ON
the dollar. This levee is costing
about $25, 900, a major portion of
which has been put up by two
railroads and the Mengel Box Co.
West Hickman property owners,
with the exception of a few who
turned the matter down cold,
have subscribed to the fund allot-
ted to the city as its part, but
enough was not realized from
this source, and a committee has
been named to canvass the bus
mess houses up town, IN the I'M
protected district, for the purpc Sc
of raising an additional $500.
The committee started out yester-
day and have thus far collected
s.. Later the Courier vii
print a complete list of all OF
those contributing to the levee
fund so that the public may
know who is helping to build up
the town-as we'll as who are
not.
