Any erroneous reflection on the character
or standing of any person, will he gladly
corrected if brought to the attention of the
management.
A great many people see the
tag or label with “Approved by
the Underwriters Laboratories”
attached to various safety de-
vices or apparatus and probably
never stop to think what this
label means, yet in the world of
business, especially as it is af-
fected by different kinds of in-
surance, this label is a very im-
portant factor.
A large part of the business
of the world results from trying
to prevent people from injuring
themselves through their own
careless acts.
In Chicago is located a unique
institution known as the Under-
writers’ Laboratories. It was
established by insurance com-
panies and is for the sole pur-
pose of testing at cost every
form of manufactured device as
to its fire resisting or accident
preventing qualities.
Here are assembled engineers
and chemists who. with the aic
of every modern device, aid the
man fact urer in testing any pro-
duct before it is offered for sale
to the public.
After a fireproof door, a safe,
an automoble lock or an auto-
mobile bumper has gone thru’
the various heat and destruc-
tion tests which they gi.e it. it
has either proved itself worthy
of the label issued by the Lab-
oratories to approved products
or it has shown weaknesses
which may be corrected by the
manufacturer before it is offer-
ed for sale.
In other words, the Laborato-
ries is rapidly eliminating the
days when the buyer paid for
experiments of the manufactur-
er. In doing this it is safe i
guarding the public against in-
numerable risks formerly in-
volved in buying and using un-
listed materials and manufac-
tured appliances.

who has made a success in his
own business and who com-
mands respect of those with
whom he associates; a man
who can reflect credit on this
district and to whom the Con-
stitutional compensation of $5
per day is not the largest sala-
ry he has ever earned.
This office is one of the most
important within the gift of the
people of the State, and no vot-
er can consistently criticize the
bad management of the State’s
affairs, increasing taxes and
the multiplicity of laws, when
he votes to send men of ques-
tioned ability to Austin.
Concerning the candidacy of
Mr. Runge, the Bandera New
Era has this to say:
“In our announcement column
this week appears the name of
Roscoe Runge of Mason, who is
a candidate for representative
of this district. The editor of
the New Era is pleased to give
his endorsement to the candida-
cy of this young man, who we
have known since he was an in-
fant. He comes of excellent fam
ily, has made good in the legal
profession, has thorough knowl-
edge of the needs of the district
and will serve the people well if
they vote to send him to the
legislature. The extract from i
the Mason County News, pub-!
lished elsewhere in this issue,
voices our statements exactly.”
