THE

MASTERY OF ENGLISH

By ALLEN AND HARVEY

BOOK I for the grades of the Junior
High School and the first year of
the four year Senior High School
BOOK II for the Senior High School

Here, at last, is the realization of the
English teacher's hopes. The texts are
full of purposeful inspiration, intelligent
activity, and stimulating humor. Every
lesson is a model of organization and
limitation. The illustrations alone are
enough to recommend these books.
They are beautiful pictures, many of
which are in color, and relate directly
to the text.

THE EDUCATORS BENEFICIAL ASSOCIATION

Woolworth Building, LANCASTER, PA.

The Original Association for the Protection of TEACHERS ONLY Read the following recent correspondence with a former member. The letters are accurately quoted.

LETTER FROM MISS E. A. H.

"I have taken out insurance in a company that I think is better than yours. Please cancel my policy."

OUR REPLY TO THE ABOVE LETTER

"We note your statement that you have taken out insurance in a company
that is better than the EDUCATORS BENEFICIAL ASSOCIATION. That is a
pretty strong statement to make and we are good-naturedly challenging you_to
prove it.
We think there is no concern like the E. B. A. in existence. It provides
a clean cut contract, and it does pay its benefits promptly and generously. We
note from our records that we have paid you three times since you became a
member. We would be glad to hear from you."

THE SECOND LETTER FROM MISS E. A. H.

"I now realize that I did make a rash statement, and an untrue one, when I wrote that I had taken out insurance in a better company than yours. I now apologize. I was dazzled and blinded by their offer to pay $25.00 per week instead of $12.50. This year I have lost four weeks of school because of sickness and couldn't collect any benefits because the disease I had was not listed in their policy. If you are willing, I would like to renew, or rather take another policy from your company."

It is the same old story. Teachers always learn, sooner or later, sometimes all too late, that there is no better protection in existence, for the price charged, than that which the E. B. A. offers. Moral: If you have this protection now, be sure to KEEP IT. If not, it will pay you to GET IT at once.

WRITE TODAY. TOMORROW, IN ALL PROBABILITY, WILL BE TOO LATE.
