I* Mmi % I MARVELOUS story of the misery thU has been elimin ated and the happiness and comfort that has been jbrought to thousand ot South Caro- .lina families whose providers were members of the Woodmen of the World is strongly emphasized by .figures compiled by W. A. Fraser, [sovereign commander of the Wood men of the World. Sovereign Commander Fraser’s (figures showed that the Woodmen of the World life insurance associa- jtion has paid $8,ltf>6.04^ in death .claims to families of this state since the Woodmen of the World started !to do business here in 1893. “Just think what these millions iof dollars paid in insurance benefits ’have meant to these families whose providers were snatched away ’from them and their regular in comes stopped,’’ said Sovereign Commander Fraser. “One does not have to stretch his imagination to realize what this money has done ifor the widows and the orphans of ithe families of this state. If these bread-winners had not been insured, think of the great misery which would have come into the lives of the wives ami children through no fault of their own. Just a little thoughtfulness on the part of the fathers and husbands of these families brought untold happiness, gave the children a chance for an education, kept many families out of orphan asylums and poorhouses and in this way saved the taxpayers ot the state thousands of dollars. The Woodmen of the World has been glad to pay these claims and W. A. Frasar bring this happiness to these many thousands of families of this state M “The marvelous record of the Woodmen of the World can be traced greatly to the loyalty and enthusiastic support given us by the people of this state. We enjoy doing business here and we hope we will always be able to play an Important part In bringing happi ness and future Security to thfc families of this state who suffer the loss of their bread winners.” “The maintenance of the War Memorial hospital at San Antonio, Texas is one of the great services performed by the Woodmen of the World. Patients are cared for free of charge in an institution that contains every possible means of renewing the health of our mem bers. Of the 3,000 patients that have been cared for a majority have been returned to their homes cured and in a position to become useful citizens of the nationwide communities in which they live.” Mr. Fraser announced that the Woodmen of the World is 103% solvent and now has $89,000,000 in municipal bond holdings in its reserve. A large portion of these bonds have been Invested in this I state, thus aiding in the building of the state's roads, schools, and vari ous public Improvements. “The Woodmen of the World Is now the richest fraternal life in surance association In the world,” said Mr. Fraser. There are many reasons for the ease of steering the new Ford THE new Ford is exception ally easy to ateer because of the well - proportioned weight of the car, the ateel- spoke wheels, the co-ordi nated design of springs and shock absorbers, the size and design of the steering wheel, and the simple me chanical construction of the •teering gear. The Ford steering gear is of the worm and sector type used on high-priced w. cars and is three-quarter irreversible. the shaft and worm to gether. The steering worm sector is forged and ma chined in the same piece with its shaft. The housing of the steer ing gear mechanism is made of three steel forgings, elec trically welded together. This housing is then electri cally welded to the steering column. Such a one-piece steel unit is naturally much sturdier than if several parts were used and bolted or riv eted together. Throughout, the new Ford w steering mechanism is so the car responds easily and simple in design and socare- quickly to the steering wheel, fully made that it requires yet there is no danger of the practically no attention, wheel being jerked from the __ , ,. funds of Ike driver by rat. .
