When a man has done the
best he can to provide for the
protection of his business and
the support of his loved ones,
his mind is free and thi3 en
ables hirn to do more work
and better work.
Life insurance, plenty of it,
is a peace promoter. Life in
surance promotes peace of
mind in the daily living and
softens the blow when the
policy holder is called to join
the Choir Invisible.
A life insurance policy is
the very best evidence of
keeping the faith with credi
tors and is the very highest
type of love letter to those
who are dear.

one of the fastest colored organiza

; hued exponents of the art of l;-irc-j
ball failed to live up to their reputa
i tio:i and wore defeated by a larg?
score, 14 to 4 being the final result
j when the wearied rluttpmouc players
J had toiled urund the ba.es and reg
! istered at the plate.
The game was very interestelng up

tragedy for the visitors and contin-
ued to grow more cheerless as the
! locals added to their scoring.
