Safety for the Auto Owner When you drive a car you are in clanger every time the wheels turn. Even a slight injury to a pedestrian, even though it happens through no fault of yours, may cost you more in damages and attorney's fees than the cost of carrying insurance for a lifetime. The car owner should be protected against loss by fire, theft, windstorm, collision or liability for injury to others or their property. Samson insurance offers the needed protection and the cost is reasonable. Let me show you a Samson policy ! Dick Broertjes Agent. 665 South Hohman Street
