INFLUENZA AND PERFECT PRO-
LECTION.

A man may talk with friend one
day and pick up the paper within the
next day or two and see that his
friend has been called away by the
Grim Reaper or is seriously ill with
Spanish influenza.
The first question asked is. How
much insurance did Bill have?' the
next question, he asks himself, How
much insurance have /? | may be the
next?"
Never has there been time when
life insurance is appreciated so much
as it is right now. Don't wait until it
is too late. You must hold yourself
personally accountable for neglect if
you leave your family unprovided for
in case of sickness or death. Read the

banks and chairmen clearly indicate
that we shall go well beyond our quota

THE spirit Of the people everywhere
in the district, particularly among
Liberty Loan workers, has risen in a
fever of devotion to overcome grave
and well nigh insurmountable OBJ
