that season sticks in his mind as the
high spot, he names the Holy Cross
game, in which there was no such
glory Brown lost IA to IL - but
which. for sheer gruellng football, was
one of the hardest-fought games a
Brown team ever played. That's the
kind of game in which blocking back
has to do his stuff. John did.
And so. at the end of the season,
John McLaughry was chosen as cap

big, husky young sixfooter whom he

Bob. Bob was captain of the Moses

embarrassed. "He has more natural
ability. He does things easier. Whether
he'll be the team player that John is

a whole team to win football games.
True. of course. But good blocking

q Woy...

ALL OVER THE COUNTRY there are
"A people of modest means who are
eager for the sense of security that life
insurance can give them.
Yet many of these people cannot afford
to buy Ordinary life insurance in $1,000
units, with premiums payable annually,
semi-annually, quarterly, or even monthly
They have to buy life insurance just as
they buy almost everything else-in small
amounts with premiums payable in small,
frequent installments.
That is why these people are grateful
for the special method of furnishing pro-
lection known as Weekly-premium Indus
trial" life insurance insurance they can
conveniently pay for because the pre-
miums are due in modest weekly pay
ments. In fact, it can truthfully be said
that if weekly-premium life insurance
we're not available, millions of people
would have no life insurance at ALL
These people welcome, too, the added
convenience of having company agent
call regularly at their homes to collect
their insurance premiums.
The relatively small amount of insur-
ance per policy, the special services rem
dered, and the additional fact that pre-
miu1s are payable in small installments,
tend to make weekly premium Industrial
life insurance somewhat more expensive
for the company to handle, and therefore
more expensive for the policyholder. The
higher average death rate experienced
among these people also contributes to a
somewhat higher premium rate.
Metropolitan however, is constantly
studying ways of improving even further
the efficiency with which this business is
conducted. Throughout the years, consis-
tent progress has been made in liberaliz-
ing the terms of Industrial insurance pol
icies and providing more benefits for less
cost.
Moreover, Metropolitan engages in ex-
tensive health activities in an effort to

health and lengthen their lives.
Last year alone, Metropolitan paid. or

that millions of people have found

. WAR STORIES
IN STAMPS
Donzig Returns to Reich:
Tenth Change in Stotus

ON September 1 the Free City
" of Danzig proclaimed its re-
turn to the German Reich. Three
days later war began.
Thus did a little Baltic port, 754
square miles in area with a popu-
lation of 407,0 900, again become
pawn for Europe's war lords. But
the experience was not new for
Danzig. In a thousand years the
status of the city has changed 10
times.
Denmark seized the Polish fish
ing village in the 18th century,
later returned it to Poland. In
1903 it was captured by the Teu-
tonic knights and held for more
than century.
In lass Danzig revolted and be-
came a free city, nominally under
Polish rule. This status was rec
ognized in the first partition of
Poland in 1872.
Prussia annexed the city in
1898 and Napoleon again freed
the territory, but it was returned
to Prussia in 1914. The treaty of
Versailles, in 1918, made it free
city again, under League of Ma
tons control, TO provide Poland
with an outlet to the sea. Dam
zig's future status rests upon the
outcome of the present conflict.
The Danzig stamp, above, was
issued in 1899 to commemorate
the 1914 restoration Of the city to
Prussia.

Religion Democracy
 United, Says Pastor
True Faith and Liberty of People Challenged By
 Sinister Forces Claims Rev. Dr. Walker

"1t may be useful at this time of the year and in these times to trace out something of the story of the rise of the democratic ideals" stat cd Rev. Dr John c. Walker, pastor of the Second Congregational church in his sermon Democracy As An Expression of Christianity" yester- day morning.
 He said in part:
 Perhaps we ought to define in the first place what we mean by dem- ocracy. We use the word "democ- racy" in its broader sense, a form of government in which the su- preme power is vested In the people and exercised by them or their elect- ed representatives. The word is former from two Greek words "democ." "the people" and "kratein, rule" hence the rule of the people. It was almost Inevitable that the word should be Greek because the first democrac'es grew up in the city states of that little land be- tween the Ionin Sea and the Aegean which gave so much to the world of culture and beauty and phil osophy. The early Greek democ- racies fell far short of the ideal, however, because the great majority of the people were slaves and had no vote but at least a pattern was set for later developments.
 So "in the course of human events" the day drew near when representatives of the several col onies heard the resolution offered that these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and inde- pendent states Only July 2 the resolution was adopted, on July 4
