LESTER TURNER, JR.
AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE
With offices located In the Skinner
Building In Seattle, specializes In
automobile insurance, representing
only strong and reliable companies.

With the notable increase In auto
mobile and truck traffic from year TO
year the necessity for insurance pro-
lection becomes greater and greater.
What with the noticeable trend toward
business specialization In every branch
Of commercial endeayor 1t behooves
tho thinking public and motorlst TO
consider the Importance of carrying
suitable coyerage and to patronize n
firm who have made careful survey
and study Of insurance applicable to
this special field.
There are five forms Of coverngc
In connection with automobile insur-
ance First, your being covered for
any personal injuries you may do to
the public which Is known as public
liability. Second, your being covered
for any damages you may do to the
property Of others and which Is known
as property damage. Third, your
being covered for damage TO your own
car, which Is known as collision, and
lastly, your being covered against fire
and theft for any damage done to
your own car by fire or theft,
OF these forms the public liability
and property damage are of primary
Importance as they constitute your
unknown liability" and In these days
Of congested traffic, and legal litiga-
ton for accidents resulting on the
highways, 1t frequently happens that
the owner of a motor car is faced with
claim that runs into the thousands
OF dollars and completely overshado%s
any asset he may have In his own
particular vehicle or any other asset
he may have, such as home, bus
mess property or such, in which case
such o loss would be disastrous.
Insurance beverages such as enum-
Grated above, placed in responsible
company relieves the car owner of all
worry and responsibility and the ex-
pense attendant on the paying Of any
just claim with which he might be
face, and can be obtained for very
nominal premium.
The service offered by Lester Turner,
Jr. makes possible the prompt fettle-
ment Of any legitimate claims cover
ed under the policy made upon or
by its policy holders and we respect
fully draw our readers attention to
him and suggest that persons not car
rying suitable beverages investigate
his attractive policies and rates.

NATIONAL PARKS INFLUENCE THE
TOURISTS

The tremendous influence exerted
on tourist travel by the national parks
and national monuments is evidenced
in recent compilations, which show
that 3,248,264 persons visited these
areas, most of which are in the west,
during 1929. This is travel increase
of 223, 42O over 1923.
Mt. Rainier National Park ranks
fourth in the entire country, in the
number of visitors, the 1929 record be-
ing 217,783, a mark exceeded only by
Yosemite Park, Rocky Mountain Park
and Yellowstone Park. The leading
national monument, in point of travel,
was Muir Woods, California, with
Arizona's Papago Saguaro second and
New Mexico's Carlsbad Caves third,
Eleven, or more than half Of the
national parks passed the hundred
thousand mark in 1929. The new ma
tional parks, Bryce Canyon and Grand
Teton had, respectively, 2l997 and
51,5OO visitors Figures are based on
reports for the governments fiscal
year.
All of the national parks are located
in the western part Of the United
States except Acadia, in Maine and
Hawaii, in the Territory of Hawaii
This fact emphasizes the Importance
of these wonderful natural attractions
to the west, and especially to the
Pacific Coast, which has six in its
territory. The experience of the tour
ing counoselors Of automobile clubs is
that national parks and monuments are
probably the greatest single influence
compelling tourists toward the Pacific
slope.

The world is still repeating the wise
sayings Of Benjamin Franklin. whose
224th birthday we celebrated last Fri
day And well We may remember his
horsc-sense remarks suggests bulletin
from the Public Health League OF
Washington.
In his autobiography we find:
I'm l778 lest one OF my sons, fine
boy OF four years, by the smallpox. /
long regretted bitterly had not given
1t to him by incubation. This l
mention for the sake OF parents who
omit the operation
What might not the son of such a
father have accomplished for the
benefit of his country And what
father would not regret bitterly" los
Ing child by reason of his own
negligence.
The unenviable record OF the United
States In regard to smallpox Is MI
international disgrace. The Surgeon
General of the y. s. said, In a recent
report, that year after year, more
cases are reported In the U. s. than in
any other country in the world except
India. For the first six months Of
1929, Wasbingtons rate was highest Of
any state in tn eUnlon. And this rate
Is increasingly
The present mild form Of the disease
may change to the virulent form ut
any time History repeats itself This
would cause an epidemic that would
cost many lives before statewide vac
cination could be accomplished, and
would probably result In an interstate
or international quarantine, with the
resultant economic loss. :
Are we going to listen to uninformed
or misinformed opponents Of the only
preventive of smallpox, or are we 60
Ing to benefit by the scientific protec-,
ton which is available-vaccinatio
Vaccinate, and you won't have to re
greet bitterly" the unnecessary loss Of
life.
