We were impressed recently by how much our every day living is governed by custom. Our small boy was getting ready to catch the school bus and had started to lace his boots when he found one lace broken and no extra laces. The next choice in footwear was a pair of muddy tennis shoes that weren't even in the house, so the only other alternative was a perfectly good pair of clean oxfords that are usually reserved for Sunday. He couldn't wear those either. Why? Simply because "nobody" wears those "things" to school! That was news around our house, but then we think you will agree it is an education to have children in school. And how about the custom of Just renewing the same fire insurance policy every three years? Perhaps a reminder is all that is necessary to let you know that there are ways to save money on fire insurance. If your property oualifies let your fire insurance premium earn a divi dend while it protects your property. We'll be glad to tell you about it, so call us at your convenience. wit INSURANCE I7J N.
