Jasper County Democrat, Volume 15, Number 40, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 21 August 1912 — Page 3 Advertisements Column 6 [ADVERTISEMENT]

L. S. Meyer and family of Flora are visiting here with his son. Dr. W. L. Meyer, and family. In “a recent fire loss in Jasper county where S6OO insurance wae carried, the company sent a draft for the full amount to the agent, and the agent had the draft endorsed over to him and then withheld $37, giving the insured but $563. The party wrote the company about it and got a letter in return stating that they had sent draft for the full amount and asking for more particulars. The party went to the agent and demanded the $37, which the agent very reluctantly handed over. Notwithstanding the great number of automobiles sold, dealers in buggies still have a good trade among the young men of the country districts. It will be a long time before the automobile becomes popular with the country boys for taking their best girls out riding. With an automobile one must pay strict attention to the guiding and manipulating of the machine, or have a chauffeur—which isn’t nice at all when two's a cmopany. With a buggy and horse one can trust a g'tod deal to the hor>o, especially if it has been properly trained for “sparking.”
