EASTER GREETINGS

= E
There has been a growing tendency
to make more of Easter than was GUS
tomary years ago. Easter Sunday has
come to rank almost with Christmas
as a day for the exchange of messages
Of effection and greeting between re-
latives and friends. A significant in
dex of this trend is to be found in the
marked increase from year to year in
the number of Easter greeting tele-
grams sent throughout the country. In
recognition of this development the
Western Union Telegraph Company
nas made arrangements to provide
special blanks of an attractive design
appropriate to the occasion. Easter
kilograms may be filed at any time and
will be delivered on the morning OF
Easter Sunday. The company has also
supplied it's offices with little book
lets containing suggestions for mes
sages suitable for various occasions
from which the wording of a suitable
Easter message may be selected by the
sender according to his taste and the
sentiment which he deire to express.

the pipe goes into the flue to see that
paper, beaver board and other inflam-
able material does not come in con-
tact with stove pipe. The high winds
may make your stove draw too hard
with resulting red-hot stove pipe,
perhaps the paper hanger covered up
where piece of brick was missing
or gone over an opening and not cut
out and put in stop. again the wind
may hove rocked the chimney to such
an extent that it is unsafe. Make your
inspection now as the fire loss record
of Winslow bears an intimate relation
to your premium rate. You and your
neighbor pay the fire loss, whether it
arson 1t is therefore your duty as
citizen to prevent fire, whatever the
cause.
1t is of serious Importance to know
that you are carrying sufficient insur-
ance to value in order to rehabilitate
you in the event of fire. Have you
increased your insurance so as to mea-
sure up to the increased cost of re-
placement under the present high cost
