Observation-Disclosures
Somebody Slipped

A large business firm discovered
that It was carrying insurance on
some buildings which had been torn
down three years before.
But here's the funny and tragical
part Of it:
The new buildings erected to replace
the old ones were not insured at all!
Someone slipped badly.
Here's where our vigilance would
have spotted bad mistake.
We are here for just such things
watching the interests of policy hold
ers. This service goes with the writ
ing OF policies. How about a policy
for you?

arose and dressed himself, and went
out by way of the door beside the
huge stOne-and-clay chimney.
The mountain air was bracing. Dale
threw out his chest and started eager
ly for a walk.
The road led past the cabin Of
Grandpap MOreland. When Dale WAS
directly in front of the log house, he
saw the aged mOuntaineer standing on
Il rickety sawhOrSe beside the stone
step at the narrow porch; Grandpnu

There were many shoals and rapids.
and he went almost half a mile before
he found a place to his liking. 1t was

With-a gentle roar; below, it Swallowed

away, Babe LittlefOrd sat on a stone
the size of small barrel: she held

her bare feet We're in the water to her

akin to reprOachful anger in her long
brown eyes.

his hat.
There was no reply. There was not
even a change of cOuntenance. Again
Dale called his friendly greeting. and
again there was no reply. 1t piqued

A few yards down the stream the
white body of a sycamore lay from

blown there by recent storm. Dale
wound his line, went down and crossed
by means of the PROSTATE tree.
She didn't even look around when
he walked up to her and spoke again.
1t struck him as being decidedly odd.
Il say" he told her, you're as
chatty as a set of stencils. You
mustn't talk so much. y'know."
Her eyes smiled at the river, but
Dale couldn't see her eyes.
