Butler Man Wins Honors.

We understand that W.. l.
Coonrod who has just returned
from Chicago, where he attended
the ceremonies of the laying OF
the corner stone for the new Hi
nois Life Insurance Company on
Lake Shore Drive, has won the
presidency of the One Hundred
Thousand Dollar Club for the
year ending August LIST, 1922
This means that he has written
more business from August-lst
1921 to July 31st, 1922, than any
other agent selling for the ILL
nois Life Insurance Company.
Mr.. Coonrod began work Tor
the Illinois Life Insurance Com
pany May 2lst, 1919. The first
full year that he worked for the
company he sold more than any
man in the Southwestern Depart
ment, thereby winning the presi-
dency of the Southwestern De-
partment Association.
Mr.. Coonrod was reared on a
farm near Clinton, Missouri and
spent twelve years teaching
school. He taught rural school
three years, was principal of the
High School at Rich Hill, Mis-
souri,, two years, principal of the
High School at Butler, Missouri,
four years and superintendent of
schools ut Carterville, Missouri,
three years.
The following is taken from
the Illinois Life Insurance Com
pany bulletin:
"W. L. Coonrod of the South
western Department who takes
the presidency of this years
500, 600 Club, came with the
Company just three years ago.
May, 1919. and in commenting
on the appointment General
Agent w. B. Davis wrote rs that
he thought they had picked a
winner. We congratulate Mr..
Davis on his foresight and w. L.
on his achievement. w. L. had
had no previous insurance, exper-
fence, having been a school
teacher. President Coonrod spe-
cialises ON the smaller policies,
but O. you may well surlmise, he
writes quite 4 number Of them
during the year and delivers
hem.

Heroes.

Washington, August lO.-The
War Department today an
mounced the award of honors for
two men, sons of former Con-
grcSsmen from Missouri. The
Distinguished Service Cross was
awarded porthumously, to Gle
mcnt p. Dickinson, first lieuten-
ant Company c, ~One Hundred
and Twenty-ninth Machine Gun
Battalion, Thirty-fifth Division,
for extraordinary heroism in ac-
ton near Charpentry, France,
September q, 1918. Lieut.. Dick
inson voluntarily went forward
alone through whitening artillery
and machine-gun fire to locate
machine gun positions, and hav-
ing accomplished this, returned
and led his command forward to
the attack, thus passing three
times through this intense field
Of fire.
The following morning, while
again voluntarily accommodating,
he was instantly killed by a high
explosive shell. His widow, Mrs.
Emma Dickinson, resides at Clin-
ton, Mo-, and he was a son of c.
{. Dickinson, former member and
