Life insurance has haved widows and orphans from
the poo rhoust—has educated more boys and girls
to manly manhood and womanly womanhood—has
been the means of keeping more families together—
paying off more mortgagee and notes than any other
business in the world.
No man who can pass a medical examination can
afford to be without life insi ! •(*«< ■*> noitw.j,can he

The Federal ol Chicago is an "old line" legal re-
serve life insurance company. It's plans are those
commanded by experience of decades and founded up-
on correct businesvs principals.
The safest, most economical and surest way to
create an estate—to protect loved ones or old age,
is to carry life insurance.
The freest-l'rom-worry way is lo carry life in-
surance.
In heat or cold—rain or sunshine—storm or
calm—prosperity or adversity—day and night—life
insurance continues its beneficient work. The terms
and conditions are fair, equitable and liberal. The
language is plain.
You will never regret insurance in this "old line"
Life Insurance Company.
In our Life Policies we have all the up-to-date
provisions, including the full return premium provis-
ion. If you have a 20 pay policy and pay the prem-
iums for 10 years and you die, your beneficiary gets
ail the premiums paid out and the amount of the pol-
icy. Do you think that you could make a better in-
vestment than this?
The Federal also has one of the best Accident
and Health policies that can be written. This is what
the Federal does: It pays for every kind of accident
and sickness known to medical science. It bars
nothing.
BETTER BE SAFE THAN SORRY.

AN AWFUL MONTROSITY
The following is taken from
Way field's weekly, and if i
eprescnts what we understand
.lie Klan stands for, from our
nformation gained by reading
a.d summing up two sides of
tie issue, we say push it along.
—Editor.
"Judging from the attitude of
is enemies did you ever hear of
uch an awful monstrosity as
he Ku Klux Klan?
Just think of it: Admilte 1
>y the best intelligence and
.ighest tribunal in the land to
.■present the noblest of princi-
!es and yet doing deeds of Hor-
ror.
think of it: Made up of the
best mental, moral and spirit-
ual stamina in the community
.'.ml yet committing the most
shocking outrages against mor*,.!
a) law.
Think of it: The best men
in our communities pledging
themselves by solemn, sacred
oath to uphold our civil law and
yet these same men going.out
like savages to torture and slay.
Think of it: Hatred and curs-
ed by every outlaw, libertine
and political crook and yet a
deadly enemy to society.
Think of it: Today.giving it
thousands to aleviate want and
suffering and tonight going ou
to torment and torture and kill
like beasts.
Think of it: The very best
men in our churches and com-j
munity offering freely their,
time and talent and wealth to
I make our community and home j
1 life better and happier and yet
(these same men geing about
i like raging beasts in the night |
I to rend and crush and kill their
fellowman.
Think of it: Men among us
wno for half a century have
been pillars in society, church
and state, and whose record
are as immaculate aa a sun-
beam—think of it, those sane
men donning a mask and going
out to transgress the most wa-
tered laws of their God and fel-
lowman.
j 'inink of it: A wave of an
arciiy and moral depravity that ,
has shaken our civil and sociai
and home life to their vei.v
foundations beating updn ^04r j
: beloved land and yet, wh~*" '
j who love their co.untr
! their homes better Iha _ __ ,
. self band themselves together
to stem the awful cataclysm of
destruction, a misguided, mot-
ley rabble, like that before Pi-
late, howl for their destruction,
i Verily the incongruity of the
attitude of some good well-
I meaning enemies of the Klan is
'something amazing.

State Aid.—Warrants for the
state aid funds granted to the
|schools of the county have been
j sent to the depository and are
! now available to pay vouchers
I of teachers in state aid schools.
The teachers know now much
j is granted to their schools and
they should be.fair with each
other and divide it among
themselves equitably.
Cash Apportionment. A two
dollar apportionment per capita
has also been made by the state
and is now available to pay the
vouchers of teachers. This
should pay, at least, all vouch-
ers including Nos. 1, 2 and 3
and part of number 4. All of
number three should be paid
first and number four as far as
the cash will permit. There
are nine more dollars per capi-
ta tr> be paid by the State, and
the State (Superintendent pre-
dicts that every cent will be
paid by September. So anoth-
er good apportionment is ex-
pected in April. The State Su-
perintendent advises that
schools need not teach out ev-
ery dollar of the supplemental
apportionment for the reason
that the apportionment for
text school year will lie about
ten dollars as it was this yt>ar.
This prediction is based upon
the actions and the sentiment
xpressed by the Legislature
"tow in session in regard to Inx
bills. The 'special car crowd"

ional purposes and the average
nan has all the tax now that

Did You Ever Get Badly Hurt by a Home
Merchant?
THERE IS A GOOD MORAL LESSON IN THE ABOVE PICTURE.
ASK YOURSELF THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:
1 Is it better to send the money out of this country or keep it at home?
2 When I want an accomodation lor a few days do I get it from the mail order
house?
When I need an article in a hurry is it economy to wait until I can order it, and
then possibly be disappointed? 1

house?
Why is it that known brands of merchandise cannot
mail order house?
(i Couldn't I get the same guarantee from my home merchant that I get by ordering?
7 Am I spending my money with men who help me support the schools, churches and
other worthy institutions of the county in which I live?
S When I have produce or products from my farm to sell do my mail order friends
help me by buying them? 1
