EVERYBODY The automobile is the most deadly hazard of modern life. Last year it killed 14,000 people—a city in itself—jand injured a million and a half more. One car out of every hundred is literally a death-trap—it will kill somebody before it reaches the junk pile. More than twelve million automobiles in the United States and the number is increasing yearly. Automobile accidents are increasing faster than the number of machines. 1,400,000 people in the United States suffered non-fatal injuries from automobiles last year. $280,000*000.00 si estimated as the annual economic loss from deaths and injuries caused by motor accidents. This danger is increasing every day —and the Automobile Accident Policy is the best and most specific protection against it and the cheapest. A. J. FLEMING BLAKELY, GEORGIA
