The Story of
Two Dollars
On January 1, 1917, two
dollars were spent by different
men but both in a city in that
Part of the United States usu
- lly designated as “The South”
The story of these two dollars
during the past year will be of
interest to the man who wishes
t do the best for himself and
his southland. Each dollar
vas spent for insurance. One
v.as part of $35 which was
paid for a policy in the Mam
moth Life Insurance Company
of New York. The other was
part of $35 which was spent
lor a life insurance policy in
'he Mammoth Life Insurance
Company of the South—-the
Jefferson Standard Life Insur
ce Co., Greensboro, N. C.
me ursi went inrougn uie
usual banking channels to New
York and there was held in a
vault of the Mammoth Life In
surance Company of New York
for about three months, and
then, with thousands of other
dollars was used to purchase
the bonds of a large fcatory in
Massachuetts. This dollar,
with others, with many others,
contributed in its way, to the
employment of many men in a
New England enterprise, and
it helped to build up an in
dustry which is competing with
Southern Industries. After
having been spent for the
bonds of this mill, it was turn
ed loose in the thriving mill
town of-in New
England, paid many debts, and
contributed as every dollar
does, to the material welfare
and prosperity of everything
with which it came in contact.
As it rolled along in its merry
way, doing good to the New
Englanders, it jingled jauntily
with many other dollars which
had cor e from the Southland,
and which, as it touched its
bright neighbors seemed to
wonder, “Why am I so far
away from home: why could I
not rema n in the Southland
and do this same good there?
Are there so many dollars in
th.«.t country that they want to
get rid of them and am I not
needed there as much as I am
here?”
The story of the other dol
lar, the one which was spent
for a life insurance policy
in the Mammoth Life Insuran
ce Company of the South, the
JEFFERSON, of Greensboro,
is .just as interesting.
It was paid into a local bank
Within three weeks it was
loaned, with many dollars, to
a Southern man, who, having
confidence in his section, was
developing his farm and need
ed this money to build better
barns, a better home and im
prove his land. This paricular
dollar was paid by this man to
a carpenter who was at work
on his barn. By the carpenter
it was paid on to the doctor.
It was used by the doctor to
pay his monthly grocery bill.
The grocer used it with other
dollars, to pay his druggists
bill. The druggist used it to
pay his neighbor farmer for
some vegetables. From there
it went to the local butcher.
From him it went through
sunn other hands, and even
tually paid hundreds of dollars
of debts. As it jingled along
on its merry course, doing
go< u in every case, its little
song was, “Just see how much
good I can do in the 'South
land, where I am so badly
needed and where I can do my
greatest good because I am
needed.”
Eventually, with nine hun
dred and ninety nine more dol
lars, it went to a poor widow,
whose husband had just died,
and the Thousand dollar policy
which she held in the Mam
moth Life Insurance of the
South, the JEFFERSON, con
tributed to a very large extent
to alleviate her unhappy con
dition by enabling her to care
for her little ones and educate
them.
Moral.—Why will Southern
people continue to send their
money to the North for Life
Insurance, when they have ir
the South a company that is
not only the Strongest regular
Life Insurance Company in the
South but offers ideal policy
contracts as cheap as is consis
tent with safe insurance.

We Have Been Very Dis
criminating in the Selection
of Pianos to Sell to YOU
Ever since 1853 we have been
firing and selling pianos. The
grandparents and great-grand
parents of many present-day
Little Rock citizens bought mu
sical instruments from us back
in the “fifties and sixties.”
Established
1853
The experience we have gained
proves to us that these pianos
are unsurpassed—Kimball Hol
lenberg, Hallet & Davis, Apol
lo, Hinze and Whitney—and so
we offer them to you with the
knowledge that they cannot
fail to please.
