ever stop to figure out the cause?

Insurance men, now Is your chance
to buy stock and get on the ground

this means. 1t means that every town
of Texas, where the Colored people
are sufficient II, number to pay, will
have a superintendent placed there. 1t
means Jobs for district and state
managers. 1t means Jobs for girls, as

Every insurance, man who expects

a Money Order for one or more shares.
1t Is the purpose of the official to
