"Prompt Paying Preferred"

60 YEARS OF SERVICE

"PROMPT PAYING PREFERRED," a phrase coined long ago, is a slogan by which this Company is known widely among Agents, Brokers and Policyholders alike.

Now rounding out 60 years of service, the continuing success of the Preferred is built upon a policy of steady, natural growth. Emphasis on intelligent insurance underwriting, both in the field and home office, and prompt settlement of claims has assured this growth.

That the course of Preferred has followed met the approval of Producers of the highest type throughout the nation, is evidenced by the fact that the mutually profitable relationships between the Company, its Agents and Brokers are usually of many years' standing.
