Lawrenceville In
surance Agency
t>, For Insurance
Daily the papers throughout the
country chronicle disastrous confla
grations that occur. Fires visit every
community at the time least expect
ed. The only sure way to be ably
protected against loss by fire or tor
nado is to carry insurance. Mr. H.
G. Robinson, Manager of the Law
renceville Insurance Co. writes all
form of fire, automobile and torna
do insurance, representing many of
the oldest and most reliable compa
nies in the world.
Mr. Robinson not only writes town
property but also country property,
thus offering insurance not only
for people in the city but also for
those who live in the country and
have no fire protection. Statistics
show that more buildings are des
troyed each year than the year pre
vious. This is due to the fact that
more buildings are erected each year
and for this reason every property
owner should have his buildings in
sured.
The cost of fire insurance is re
markably low and is within reach of
everyone. One of the cheapest
forms of insurance is the tornado
policy that Mr. Robinson writes. On
ly a few years agoa tornado visited
Oconee destroying several thousand
dollars worth of property, and no
one ever knows when a similar dis
aster will visit their community and
everyone should carry this form of
insurance.
The Fire Insurance companies of
today are urging property owners to
use diliegnce and care in the erec
tion of new buildings and are stress
ing the fact that it is cheaper to
cover these buildings with fire proof
roofing. Mr. Robinson stated the
other day that the insurance rates
-would be cat in half if our property
owners would use fire proof roofs.
No matter whether your policy be
large or small you will do well to
call on the Lawrenceville Co. and let
them tell you just how your insur
ance premiums may be reduced by

W. T. Tanner, the
Farmers’ Friend,
Sells Goods Low
W. T. Tanner has been in busi

ceeding year has seen him with more
friends and more business. People
have come to generally know that
when they want anything in the
hardware ilne the best thing to do is
to call on W. T. Tanner.
Mr. Tanner desires the writer to
announce that his $15,000.00 stock
must be reduced to SIO,OOO within
the ftext 60 days. He is going to do
this by offering the people of this
county the very best bargains in
hardware that they ever had. Some
of the values that are particularly
attractive are two-horse -wagons at
prices ranging from $75 to S9O.
These same wagons cost wholesale
from $95 to $l2O. This fact alone
proves Mr. Tanner’s sincerity when
he says that the prices will be as
tonishingly low. But this is only a
beginning. Buggies will be sold at
$25. Stoves will go at reduced
prices. Also two New Home sew
ing machines will go at cost and
many other articles will be sold far
cheaper than ever before.
The writer firmly believes that if
