1Continued from page one C. S. Beebe's fourth annual

smoker given to the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance company’s policy holders in biackfoot and community was held at the K. of P. hall Wed­nesday evening. About eighty policy holders were present.

Mr. Beebe delivered his annual lecture on the elementory principles of life insurance, and followed by a very exhaustive explanation of the Mutual Benefit contract.

A number of questions were asked ind answered and this was followed by a brief talk from W. R. Wllker- son, general agent of the company at Boise, who reviewed the traditions of the company for fair dealings and named a number of things done be­yond its contract provisions that strikingly illustrated his point.

Others #who made talks were Ernest Pearson, L. J. Chapman, Mr. Moser, Mr. Stone and Mr. Silene.

A Poor Woman’s letterA poor woman in Cochise county,

Ariz., who heard of Mr. Meredith and his plan of helping boys, wrote

him to see if she could make ap- licatlon for them and conduct pig­

raising in their name 'while they grew up, and on learning that the <oys had to do it personally, she wrote the following letter to Mr. Meredith, acknowledging receipt of the blanks and instructions and said she would save the papers till her boys were old enough to go into it. Then she added, “I want.to make up for my children what I failed to get when I grew up. I was born and raised on a farm. Was the oldest of ten children and to say I know yhat farm work is, is expressing it mildly. I helped with all the field work, milked the cows, helped with the house work and did the family wash­ing.

My father was one of these renter farmers who thought he wasn’t able, and if he gave us our grub, a few clothes and a pair of Brogan shoes and sent us to school two or three months in the winter, he was doing his share. My brother just younger than I, came in for a little cotton crop in order to keep him from leaving home. He also got a pony and a saddle.

I.eft Home at Eighteen"I stood it until I was eighteen

years old and like all other poor farmer girls went to the city to work. When I was nineteen my mother died more because of the hard work than sickness. She needed my help but I knew 1 wasn’t getting a fair chance at home, therefore, I stayed away until it was too late.. If I was to do it over I would sacrifice every­thing and stay at home to help mother. In order to get me to come home and take charge of everything my father offered me my first cotton crop. I kept house for father, the nine children younger than myself, also an aged grandfather and grand­mother who lived with us. I raised more chickens, ducks, turkeys and guineas than were ever raised on father’s farm. I milked three or four cows twice a day, besides picked my onw town and a half bales of cotton, which was sold for 3 cents a pound. That was in 1914 when prices were low.
