political party we are affiliated, we
still must earn our bread and butter
through regular and steady employ
ment. It may be good sport for poli-
ticians or political parties to heckle
each other with criticism. But when
a public official of whatever party,
who has guided his country through
a troubled period in the world's his-
tory with increasing prosperity and
reduced taxes, decides voluntarily to
turn the reins of government over to
a successor, he shifts the responsibil

ment onto the shoulders of every cit-
izen they must express their opinion
Some persons thought It profitable
to criticize President C'oolidge for
showing1 a favorable attitude toward
business development. Others saw hu
mor in commenting on his New Ens-
land thrift. The political wind-bat
felt he was strengthening his ovrr
position by poking fun at the Presi
dent's retiring manner, laconic state-
ments and disinclination to talk ex-
cept when required to do so.
But that is aall passed. It is now
up to the critics and the admirers of
President Coolidge, in both parties, to
see if they can match his record for
sound administration of the greatest
corporation in the world, namely, the
United States Government. The stock-
holders ol' this corporation, the citi-
zens of the United States, today know
more about business, more about in-
vestments and more about conditions
which are necessary to assure steady
employment of labor than they ever
did before. Most of the campaign

BUILDING SOUND INSURANCE
STRUCTURE
The National Board of Fire Under-
writers recently celebrated its sixty-
first birthday. Few organizations in
this country hav such an unbroken
record of continuous service to their
members and to the public.
Unlike many old organizations, the
National Board has not become ob-
sessed with its own importance and
dignity. It was founded 011 the idea
of service to its membership and the
country at large. Today it is not only
rendering the greatest possible ser-
vice to its members, but it is striking
out in a bold course to render the
greatest possible service to the peo-
ple, knowing that permanent stabili-
ty for insurance rests on the fullest
public understanding of its problems
It has been the leader in fire pre-
vention activities and the establish-
ment of Fire Prevention Week, which
this year will be from ( ' ' " 9 to
15. When it is realized that ""26
1 "i,000 lives were lost through fire,
and Sf>60,000.000 worth of property
went up in smoke, unhesitating coop-
eration should be given the National
Board in carrying on the campaign
•against the fire demon.
It is gratifying to see that greater
interest is being shown in fire pre-
vention than ever before and the Na-
tional Board is looked to for guidance
Tire departments, schools, cities and
towns turn to it for exhibits and pro-
grams which will help present tlii
subject forcibly to local communities.
In order that the public may better
understand its own interest in insur-
ance, the National Board and its mem
