being offered in units of $.100
with the first issue limited
to one thousand such units.
The company plans to increase
its capital account by charter
amendment to a minimum of
$250,000 after the original stock
issue has been subscribed and will
then exchange each $'<00 unit for
one hundred shares <>f fully paid,
non-assessable n«> par common
voting stock.
"This is the ot -lass of st ■ >H,
we plan to issue with each ami
every share equal in ail respecto
to every other such share and
with all entitled to equal divi-
dends and voting privileges," Mr
Dillard explained.

live up to its i.ame by concur
trating its sales efforts in this
area but hopes eventually t.> have
stockholders in all Texas' 251
counties. Until such time as the
compnay is able t«. erect its own
building it will headquarter in
Room 201, Variseo building.
"Millions of dollars in insur-
ance money has gone out of Bra-
zos county in past year?," Mr
Dillard pointed out. "Now our
company expects to bring a great
deal of money into the county.
Obvoiusly this will benefit the
economy of the entire com-
munity."
Mr Dillard began his insur-
ance career with the Reliable
Life Insurance Company of St.
Louis, one of the largest of the
Missouri life companies, and serv -
ed for 11 years aa agent's super
visor and district manager.
In 1947 he became associated
with the Great. National Life In-
surance Company of Dallas and
while in its employ completed the
famous School of Insurance Mar-
keting arid Finance at Southern
Methodist University.
Three years later he joined
forces with the First American
Life Insurance Company, serv-
ing as manager of the Central
Texas Agency which produced in
excess of one million dollai.-
worth of lif. insurance the first
year. He has continued to rep-
resent this compnay in both the
production and investment depart-
ments.
In M 51 Mr Sharp beca me as-
sociated with First American
Life Insurance Company in the
investment department which he
successfully developed.
He became acquainted with Mi
Dillard and they made frequen.
business trips together during
which they would while away the
miles in pleasant little discus
8ions about how nice it would be
to have their own company.
As the idea of forming a com
pany gradually evolved from the
dream state to a practical possi
bility the two men spent long
hours of their leisure time mak
