The placing of insurance has now become one of the most important branches of commercial life as the people have been educated to their duty in this respect. This awakening to what is an obvious duty has been accomplished through a most intensive campaign on the part of the progressive insurance men of the country, who have had to overcome many obstacles in the way of ignorance, indifference and lack of appreciation of the many advantages of this form of investment and protection. At present there are few indeed who do not carry some form of insurance, and the time is not far distant when the intelligent man and woman will provide for every contingency through the medium of insurance. One of the men who has been connected with the insurance business of Jacksonville during all of his active career is JULIAN PAUL, with offices at 506 Bisbee Building.
