If Your Property is worth
Insuring against Fire
IT IS WORTH INSURING
AGAINST AIR RAIDS
do you know
"that your fire insurance policies do not protect you
against loss if your property is destroyed or damaged by
air raids?
you can now buy War Damage Insurance
that docs protect you against loss resulting from enemy
attack, including any action taken by our military, naval
-or air forces in resisting enemy attack.
War Damage Insurance is issued by the War
Damage Corporation, an agency of the Federal Govern
tment which operates in cooperation with leading fire
ansurance companies and their agents and brokers.
War Damage Insurance is so priced that you
•cannot afford to be without it? For example, the rate
for dwellings and contents is only 10r per $lOO of in
surance per year.
mPUt -you cannot obtain War Damage Corporation
Insurance against raid damage after it occurs. For this
reason, we suggest telephoning or writing today for par
ticulars on this important new type of insurance. -

IT’S NO MILITARY SECRET
There are many ways to lose a war. A reckless lack
regard for the rights of a fellow citizen rates a top
'..'lrice among a long list, of don’ts. Whereever you
ride you will find your merchant’s stock of merchan

HIS BUSINESS
The strong man was explaining
his act to his agent.
“I place a heavy stone on my
head,” he asserted, “and then my
assistant picks up a 16-pound sledge
hammer, swings it with all his
might—and cracks the stone in
half.”
The agent grew dizzy at the
thought.
“That’s marvelous,” he enthused.
“But, how about your head—don’t
you ever feel it?”
The strong man waved a hand.
“YeS,” he admitted. “That’s why
I carry aspirins!”
DETOUR
“There’s a man down the road a
bit who wants a man to do a day’s
work.”
“Oh, thank you, sir! But for your
timely warning I might have run
right into him.”
Too Low
It was the ship’s concert, and the
1 song was "Asleep in the Deep.” The
singer had got well and truly deep
when an awed voice came from the
back of the hall:
"Throw out a depth charge and
bring him to the surface?”
Curriculum
“Well, young man, ready for col
lege?”
“Yep.”
“What important subject will you
take up this fall?”
“The first thing is the matter of
the forward pass.”
Burned Up
“You’re lucky to have got hold of
a cook in these times,” said Mrs.
Robinson.
“I don’t know about the luck,”
replied her friend. “She seems to
have the scorched earth policy on
her brain.”
Courageous
“And you say you love me?”
“Devotedly.”
“With the cost of living as high
as it is?”
“Indeed I do. And when the cost
of living is less I will prove my love
by making you my wife.”
His, Too
“There is something that will
shine increasingly through the dark
war days,” declared the orator.
“Don’t pile it on, guv’nor,” whis
pered a sympathetic voice. “You’re
not the only one wearing a blue
serge suit.”
Mighty Nice
I “I don’t mind a’comin’ now and
again to oblige,” said the charwom
an, in a very offhand way.
“That’s very kind of you,” was
the reply. “But what I’m really
looking for is daily condescension.”
Naughty
Bulletin in Scotch Church—Those
in the habit of putting buttons in
stead of coins in the collection plate
will please put in their own buttons
and not buttons from the cushions on
the pews.
She Knows
Traffic Cop—Don’t you know what
I mean when I hold up my hand?
Old Lady—l ought to; I was a
•choolteacher for 35 years.
PAT OFF
“Your sister tells me she’s never
been kissed.”
“Say, would it be worth a quarter
if I tell de truth about it?”
Compromise
“I often wonder who those fellows
are that loaf around watching a new
building going up.”
“Easy! They are men who start
: out in the morning to look for work
i and compromise by looking at it.”

The tradition of American cavalry j
threads back to Indian warfare days i
and although modern armies are
largely motorized today, the cavalry
j still plays an important role. Sturdy,
well trained horses and excellent
i equipment and trappings are neces
| sary.
When men are in the saddle for
hours, their saddles, saddle rolls and
other equipment must be made to
stand the wear. Complete with car
( bine and helmets, the equipment
I for the cavalryman runs into hun
dreds of dollars. You can help pro

OUR NEW YEAR MESSAGE
This is no time for the usual Happy New Year wishes. It is
a time, rather, for a prayer to God to give us strength and
courage to grit our teeth, put our shoulder to the wheel, and
devoutly resolve to shoulder burdens, make sacrifices, do
whatever is demanded of us to win this war.
Thus we may hope for a restoration of “our way of life” with
a feeling of assurance that the suffering people of this world
will be freed from domination and depression.
We pledge you our very best efforts and whole-hearted help
in getting supplies necessary to make your 1943 crop.
It will be necessary to do without many things that you have
been getting on account of scarcity. But we will have some
Implements, Fertilizer, Soda, Seed, Feed and
Supplies, and good supply of parts and repairs.
Come to see us and we will do everything possible to keep
you operating.
See us when you have anything to sell and need farm supplies.
Expect car of Calcium Arsenate this week. We greatly ap
preciate your trade and friendship.
