HOW MUCH OF THE FIRE
RISK ARE YOU CARRYING?
More than you think, unless
you have increased your in

has increased. If your home
burned, it would cost you twice
the money you paid originally

HON HOWARD THOMPSON
i When the individual history
'of the States in the World War
is finally compiled and written,
nothing will outshine the re
counting of the work done by
'Howard Thompson, United
.States Marshall for the North
ern District of Georgia, and
no name will be spoken with
greater reverence by the folks
of the rough mountain country
than his, because he was in
deed and action their friend.
Howard Thompson was born
in Hall county, Georgia, May
2, 1854, the son of Ovid B. and
Margaret (Stovall) Thompson.
The common school of that per
iod gave him an educational
foundation, and he later grad
uated in 1877 from the Univer
sity of Georgia with the degree
of Bachelor of Arts, having as
class-mates of that session such
men as ex-Congressman Wm.
M. Howard, now of Augusta.
Murpiiey C. Candier, preseal
Railroad Commissioner, and
Alexander N. Lawton, of Sa
vannah, Ga.
After farming for three
years in Alabama he was ad
mitted to the bar in 1880, and
began practicing at Gaines
ville, Ga. After several years
he was elected Solicitor Gener
al for the Northeastern
Judicial Circuit of Georgia,
and served twelve years. He
then re-entered private prac
tice untl in 1913, he was ap
pointed United States Marshall
for the Northern District ot
Georgia, in which capacity he
has served since that time. In
1910 he was elected to the
State Senate for one term from
the 33rd Senatorial District,
and in 1896 served as a dele
gate to the Convention that
nominated Bryan for the
Presidency.
The outstanding feature ot
his career, however, is that
during the late war, when in
his official capacity he had to
deal with hundreds of draft
evaders throughout the north
ern part of the state. Believ
ing that these for the most
part were from families uned
ucated and knew nothing of
the law and the duties in
cumbent on them as American
citizens. Mr. Thopmson seem
ed special permission from the
war department to hold meet
ings and deliver speeches on
“Americanism” and kindred
subjects to the mountain folks
Today he has numbers of
letters commenting on the val
ue of his services in this re
spect, and praising the tact
with whfch he handled situa
tions which at times were deli
cately critical. The official
records show that he returned
or caused to return to army ser
vice something over 1000 de
serters, and so-called slackers,
all of whom afterward made
good in the service. To reach
these individuals and present
.to them and their people the
reasons why they should obey
the law and' call of country, he
made countless trips into the
mountains, delivered hundreds
of speeches and sent out more
than 1,000 letters containing;
personal appeals. His efforts
bore fruit, and he had the ex
treme satisfaction of knowing
that hundreds of these boys
were taken into the service
with clean records and fully
justified the confidence that
he had shown in them. He re
ceived great praise and
laudation from the War De
partment, various Government
officials, court officers, and the
families of the boys themselves
Mr. Thompson is a Baptist
and has taken all Masonic de-
grees to the Shrine, is a
Pythian and Odd Fellow. He
is also a trutsee of the Univer
sity of Georgia. He had four
nephews on the World War,
all volunteers, one of whom
was wounded in action in
northern France.
He was married May 17,
1883, to Miss Henrietta Clark,
of Monroe County, Georgia,
She was a daughter of Rev.
Wiliam M. Clark, of Monroe
County, Gecygia. They have
two daughters, Mrs John
O’Hare Walpole and Mrs. J.
A. Mershon, of Gainesvil'e
and four grandchildren —Cher

The steel used in the manufacture of all the
' important parts of Chevrolet cars represents the
highest development in the art of steel making
To this master product of steel the Chevrolet
owes its wonderful stamina and enduring life.
For instance, the axles cu a Chevrolet car
could be twisted and distorted entirely out of
their original shape without breaking. All
other such important units could be subjected
to just as severe strains, which are seldom if
ever encountered in actual motoring without
damage.
This is one of the many reasons that Chevro
let car3 give such satisfying service year aftei
year with remarkably low cost of upkeep.
