FIRE
If controlled—Man’s most useful ser

If uncontrolled—His most destructive
foe.
If your property is not absolutely fire
proof it may be the next to go up in

If it goes, will your brightest hopes go

"come back.”
See us today. Tomorrow you may
have nothing to insure.

Thanksgiving Day
May we, on Thanksgiving day, 1923, acknowl
edge our blessings with humble and grateful
hearts.
In fairness of mind and spirit, with fearless,
industrious hearts, may we re-dedicate ourselves
to the work that is still before us: That this coun
try, our country, shall not fail but shall, through
the centuries, express in national life, all that is
finest and truest and best.
We wish to thank all of our many customers
for their past patronage, and hope that our deal
ings in the future will be as pleasant as in the
past. Many, many thanks.

THANKSGIVING
J
A day for reflection. A day for meditation
about ourselves, our community, our nation.
This day finds us as a people, happily nearer
the goal of stability than we have been for sev
eral years.
We feel that our country is on the threshold
of a period of great prosperity, in which our
county and state are sure to share.
We are an optimistic people. So mighty is
our country, so vast its resources, so huge its
wealth that we have countless reasons to be
thankful.
It is fitting that we offer this day, thanks for
blessings received, and those to follow.
