BEEBE's INSURANCE PARTY

Last Friday evening in spite OF
the blizzard and the many other at
fractions a goodly crowd gathered
at Beebe's Annual Educational
meeting Mr.. Beebe explained that
life insurance is really sold secretly
and men put away life insurance
policies and pay on them for years
and then get them out and find they
were not what they thought. With
his annual lectures this is prevented
and it is a significant fact that no
man has ever gotten up in one of
these meetings and stated that he
was told anything different when he
bought his policy than was given out
in the lecture, and no man has ever
gotten up and stated that he even I'M
derstood it differently. The policy
contract itself was taken up and TAX
en- to pieces clause by clause to show
the safeguards thrown around the
assured in case he lapsed his policy.
The practices of the Mutual Benefit
beyond that of any other company
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1924-03-27

were shown, the lack of forfeitures
whether one quits for mere whim OF
necessity. 1t was shown how the re-
troactfve practices of the company
keep even its oldest policies up to
date to an extent not reached by an
other company. First year values
that it is not matter of claim as
to which is the best life insurance
company, but that it could be demon
strated as certainly as scales deter
mine the weight of various things.
The matter of difference in cost
systems and Mutual Legal Reserve
were fully gone into as we'll as show
ing that a man 35 can buy life in
surance combined with old age fund
coming in at IS for small monthly
payments.
Mr.. Beebe stated that he had taken
plenty of time to select the company,
was representing it at a lower COM
mission than many companies would
pay him and that when some company
gave more for the money he would
have it. He told of instances in Bing-
ham County where his company has
paid claims on account of its liberal
conditions not possible under any
other policy, and that he meant just
what he said when he advertises that
Tor Absolute Security, Liberality of
Contract and Lowest Possible Net
Cost his company leads.
Many questions were asked and
answered fully and to the satisfaction
of all present. Mr.. Kottke showed
that taking a boy FL or under he
would have to save $16.06 a year for
35 years improved at per cent COM
pound interest to save $1,000. That
the Mutual Benefit for years has been
charging $3.50 per $1,000, at the
age Of FL and paying $1,000 in cash |
in 35 years besides the life insurance
protection. Mr.. w. B. Johnson, the |

Nj, Roy Side

To ths Editor 0f The Putnam Patriof-
 Dear sir.-I was very much sur prised upon receiving my copy of ile 1 Patriot lasf week. to note a personal ID connection with being found guilty oi reckless driving and fined s2o.pD and costs at Chaplin court.
 This is a very misleading statement and wish Yoa would kindly correct same.
 Az a matter of fact. when the aeci- dent happened. was sitting in the back seat with Mrs. Boys and vas not driving the car at all, and there was absolutely no reckless driving. Our car was not running more than fifteen miles an hour. when the lady driving the Ford coming towards us, skidded across the road. which caused our left fender tO hit the back wheel Of the Ford There vas no one hurt and # was purely an accident and absolutely unavoidable under the circumstances.
 As the people driving the Ford did not have any insurance, l decided that we would fix our own damaged fend- er and presumed that they would do fhe same with the Ford but, however later they summoned me to court, and 1 t vas one of those eases where it look cd as fl the town was short of money and looking for something easy.
 pleaded not guilty in the case and was fined S25 Oo and costs which l did not pay but appealed to a higher court which. ! presume, will be tried again at 8 later date.
 Yours very truly.
