BUSINESS
Perry and MeDavid Agency
Extends Efficient Aid
to Clients.

Five years ago, two enterprising
young San Antonians, Kenneth c.
Perry and A. G. McDavid formed the
insurance agency of Perry & McDavid
with offices in the Bcdell building. A
few weeks ago they were compelled
to enlarge their offices adding an
additional suite, in order to care for
their rapidly expanding business and
office force. The secret of their sue
cess has largely been found in the one
word Service"
I'VE found when we began going
after business that a lot Of people hal
insurance to SELL" said Mr.. Perry.
There are countless kinds of in.
surance and there are many agencies
selling the various lines. So we took
page from our business experience
and decided not only to sell the best
insurance that we could get but to sell
service along with 1t.
RAPID GROWTH.
1--WE have today, a rapidly growing
insurance agency based on service. We
are equipped to ta..e over the entire
insurance problem Of any individual
or business concern and give it the
same personal, efficient care that
would be given by the owner. We can
not only keep careful record of expira.
tons end renewals, payments and
such matters but we can, by efficient
inspection. often save money for our
clients by reducing risks and bringing
plants and industries into line with
the best methods. and systems adyo-
Gated by the leading insurance com
panies.
CLAIMS DEPARTMENT.
1--WE maintain claims department
and an engineering department and
we have secured some of the largest
insurance accounts not only in San
Antonio but throughout Southwest
Texas where we operate. Our rapid
growth has made it necessary for us
to double our floor space and to revise
our equipment so that we have today,
one of the most modernly equipped in
surance agencies in this part of the
state. The companies we represent are
of the very best in their respcctiev
fields and we give to the men and
women who patronize us, not only pro-
lection by insurance coverage but the
added protection of our agency service
which looks after thei' problems as
carefully as they could do themselves
all without one cent of additional
expense"

TEXAS A PRODUCER.

Texas produces a vast amount oil
oil, ranking along with Oklahoma and
California in its output, the average
gross yield from this product being
around one hundred million barrels
annually, which brings in gross revc,
nue. of approximately one hundred
and seventy-five million dollars an

When We take into consideration the
wonderful resources of Texas, par
toicularly as to the agricultural inter

Feature of Wide-awake
S. A. Firm.

Perfect service for agents and policy
holders requires the right sort Of
company and the right sort OF state
managers. Hornberger, Beckman and
Company have succeeded in perfect.
ing this combination as state mana
gers for the West Coast Life Jnsur-
ance company OF San Francisco.
On account Of their long standing
reputation for superior service in all
branches Of insurance business, the
West Coast Life Insurance company
some four years ago offered its state
membership for Texas to Hornbcr-er,
Bcckman and Company.
Before accepting this they investi.
gated the methods of paying claims
OF the company from every side and
only after having assured themselves
of being able to give their agents and
customers the very best policies and
prompt settlement of honest claims
did they enter into a permanent ar
rangemcnt.
ADDED BENEFITS.
In combination with the usual life
insurance policy, West Coast Life's
contracts provide added benefits and
service through the total and perma-
uent disability clause and through its
accident and health protection.
The West Coasts perfect protection
policy has been planned to prSyide
funds in the event of financial en-
barrassment due to accident and i'll
ness, old age or death.
This policy contains all the stand
ard clauses as to cash and loan values
and automatic extended insurance.
PROMPT SERVICE.
When notified of a death Of
policyholder, Hornberser, Beckman
and Company Immediately send one
Of their representatives to aid the
beneficiary in completing claim pa
pers. As soon as these papers are
completed, the claims are paid by the
company. Hornbcrger, Beckman and
Company's special purpose is to rem
der this without any delay or cost.

The magnitude of the lumber in
