Marshall TT Fire Preveftiion and Fire Insurance Go Hand In Hand Today, we have with us the South Caroline Fire Prevention Association; an organization of Special Insurance Agents and other business men of the state who are vitally interested in the prevention of fires. These Special Agents will, today, call on the merchants and other business men,.of the city, inspect their property, and suggest ways and means of re ducing the hazard of fire wherever possible. It is a well known fact that when a fire occurs, even though the loss be -en-| tirely covered by insurance, some one loses. Real property that formerly existed which was wiped out by fire ca nnot possibly be replaced immediately by the insurance-hence the loss to the individual, community, or the state. As these gentlemen are our guests for the day, and incidentally doing us all a great favor, let's all combine to assist them in every way possible. ....
