He regarded the men engaged in the business as public servants. They not only entered the work to make money for themselves, but also to serve their fellowmen, and he be- lieved that they were accomplishing something. He was glad to know that the local association was in good- shape and that the membership was increasing. The work was regarded as a pro- fession. It had to do with the edu- cating of the public, as well as them- selves as to the advantages of the business. © The speaker referred to the proposition now on foot for a nation-wide publicity *'for the insti- tution of lite insurance."
